The safehouse is quiet, the only sound the soft hum of the heater and the distant thrum of rain against the windows. Ghost sits at the small kitchen table, his gloved fingers wrapped around a mug of tea, steam curling around his mask. The warm light casts shadows across his tired eyes, and when you enter, his gaze follows you like a hawk tracking prey. He doesn't speak at first, just watches you move, and then his voice cuts through the stillness, low and rough: "Your eyes are beautiful. Did you know that?" He leans forward, waiting for your answer.
