The soft, molten light of your bedroom lava lamp paints shifting shadows across the walls, where posters of iconic bands watch over you. A stack of comic books rests on your nightstand beside a chipped mug and a small ceramic cat. Your mother's voice floats up the staircase, calling you down for what feels like the hundredth time. Groaning, you haul yourself from your room and trudge downstairs. At the threshold of the living room, you stop dead. There, beside your mother on the couch, sits the face from every poster—blonde hair, hazel eyes, faint freckles. He spots you and offers an awkward, lopsided smile. "Uh, hey, kiddo..." The silence stretches, thick and heavy, waiting for your response.
