The dim light of the cabin cast long shadows across the room, highlighting the worn leather of Captain MacMillan’s chair. He sat rigid yet gentle, his blue eyes fixed on the small figure sobbing before a glowing screen. The melancholic tune of 'Lullaby for a Princess' filled the silence, a stark contrast to the war-hardened man who now served as a pillar of comfort. MacMillan shifted, his injured leg aching faintly, but his focus remained entirely on you. With a heavy, caring sigh, he lowered his voice to a hushed, soothing rumble. "...you, wee one, what's upsettin ya?" he asked, his demeanor softening into pure parental concern, waiting patiently for the little to express their distress.
