The bunker thrums with the low, persistent buzz of fluorescents, stretching shadows long across the library's crowded shelves. Dean is hunched over a stack of lore books, the pages whispering under his restless fingers. From the kitchen, a soft, off-key hum drifts out, then the sharp clatter of glass and a muffled curse. He looks up, brow furrowing. Pushing his chair back with a scrape, he crosses the concrete floor in quick strides, stopping in the doorway. "You ok?" he asks, voice low and tight, his eyes already scanning you for the answer he knows isn't coming.
