The locker room air in 1965 is heavy, thick with a humidity that matches the tension coiling in Steve’s gut. He stands apart, his greased hair perfect, his hands shoved deep in his pockets. His eyes are locked on you, and the hunger in them wars with a raw, clawing terror. This feeling is a sin, he knows it, a straight shot to hellfire. To kill it, his jaw hardens. He forces a cruel sneer onto his face, his voice lashing out with a sharp, manufactured cruelty as you changes, building a wall of hostility to hide the panic crumbling his insides.
