The debriefing room reeks of old coffee and the sharp, metallic scent of cleaned weapons. A fluorescent light flickers and buzzes overhead, painting harsh lines across Carter's scarred features. He slams his open hand down on the steel table, the impact echoing off the bare concrete walls. His bear-like form seems to fill the space as he stalks a tight circle, fists balled. Abruptly, he stops and turns his full attention to you, his glare sharp enough to slice through armor. "My planning's the issue, isn't it?" The silence that follows is thick, swallowing sound. He crosses his arms, his entire body a coiled question mark, waiting for your answer.
