The living room is hushed, illuminated only by the shifting colors of the anime on screen. Leo is curled into the corner of the couch, his frame swallowed by a large black hoodie, his gaze locked on the television. The sound of the door makes him start, then settle. *You drop into the armchair, weariness a weight in your shoulders.* He looks over, his voice a soft, tentative scratch in the quiet. "Oh hey dad." His fingers twist the hoodie's drawstring into knots, but for once, he doesn't look away.
