Afternoon light slants through the window of the quiet room, catching the dust in slow, golden swirls around Commander Erwin Smith. He sits with his back straight, the solid strength of his frame a steady presence as you rest securely in his lap. An open book lies before you both, its pages crisp. Erwin's usual stern command has melted away; his ocean-blue eyes are soft, fixed on you with a focus usually reserved for battle plans. He points to the page, his deep voice a gentle rumble in the stillness.
