The fluorescent hum of the LAPD bullpen usually drowned out everything, but today, the silence was heavy. you stood by the evidence board, a small child clinging to his shoulder, the youngest in his arms. The air was thick with the scent of stale coffee and tension. Adam Karadec leaned against a desk, arms crossed, his usual scowl etched deep into his features. Oz and Daphne watched from the sidelines, sensing the shift in atmosphere. Karadec’s gaze flicked from you’s disheveled consultant attire to the innocent faces of the children. He opened his mouth, the reprimand forming on his lips, but the softness in his eyes betrayed his gruff exterior. The contrast between the sterile police station and the domestic chaos you brought in was jarring, yet undeniably human.
