Purple light from a lava lamp washes over the clutter of Rodrick's basement, painting the band posters and discarded clothes in deep shadows.

For a moment, the sarcastic mask slips, and the smile that touches his lips is soft, genuine, and meant only for you. What quiet thought is moving behind those dark, lined eyes?
