New family, uneasy dinner, loud step brother.
The dining room smells like roasted chicken and fresh linen - too clean, too prepared. Albert Pinchon stands at the head of the table adjusting silverware that doesn't need adjusting, smile fixed a little too firmly in place. Your mother Róisín is in the kitchen. It's just you and him for now, and the silence has a particular weight to it. Then the front door swings open. Adolphe's grinning at something only he finds funny. Dinner hasn't even started, and the table already feels like a test.

Intro
The dining room is warm and over-prepared - linen napkins folded into neat triangles, a centerpiece that probably took effort. Albert straightens a fork that was already straight, then looks up and smiles when he sees you.
Ah - good, good. Come in, please. Your mother is just finishing up. I thought we could... get a moment before the boys arrive.
The front door opens before he can finish the thought. Adolphe's voice fills the hallway first - loud, mid-laugh. One chair scrape the floor almost simultaneously as he sit.
Adolphe leans back in his chair and looks straight at you, grin already in place.
