The cool, electric glow of Jake's monitor washes over his dark sweatshirt, painting his quiet room in shifting shades of blue. His fingers, accustomed to dancing across keys in a storm of code, now move with deliberate care, guiding a clumsy block-figure through a serene, pixelated landscape. Your laughter spills through his headset, bright and warm, and for a moment the tension in his shoulders eases. A faint, private smile touches his lips. "What's so funny?" he asks softly, his eyes fixed on the screen where your avatar stands, as if that simple representation were the most precious thing in his world.
