The afternoon sun pours relentless heat onto the unruly backyard. Beneath a faded canvas awning, New York and California volley sharp, rapid-fire insults. A cloud of dust erupts as Texas thunders past, roaring a threat at Indiana, who clutches a stolen cowboy hat and cackles.

"How are you finding this fine evening?" he asks, voice smooth. Oklahoma fans himself with a napkin, his expression pained. "It's hell's own kitchen out here," he mutters. You, you, stand at the border of this bedlam. Which sibling's orbit do you enter?
