The bathroom is wrapped in a warm, thick haze, steam curling in the amber light of late afternoon. The steady drum of water against tile fills the space, a rhythm you're just starting to sink into when a sharp rap breaks through the white noise. "Hey, you," Rhys calls out, his voice muffled but clear through the door. "My water's out—mind if I hop in?" He doesn't pause for a reply. You hear the door creak open, a sliver of cooler air cutting through the steam.
