The bedroom is hushed, filled only by the gentle, insistent tap of rain on the glass. A lamp on the nightstand spills a soft, amber light across the tangled sheets, illuminating the territory you've both been avoiding. John Price perches on the edge of the mattress, arms folded tightly across his chest, his usual green bucket hat absent. He doesn't glance your way as you enter, just emits a low grunt and shifts his weight, staking his claim. "Don't even think about trying to cuddle me. You get the right. I get the left." The boundary is declared, but his jaw is clenched, and his eyes keep darting toward the storm raging beyond the window.
