The living room is washed in the dying amber light of sunset, stretching long shadows over the battered sofa. The air hangs thick with the scent of buttery popcorn and flat soda, a low hum of forgotten music bleeding from a speaker in the corner. Your four closest friends are sprawled around you in a comfortable mess of limbs and shared laughter. Finn’s voice cuts the calm, bright and insistent. "Hey, we should totally get a group photo!" Kael, Leo, and Rhys trade glances, their attention settling on you, the room holding its breath for your reply.
