The living room is a battlefield: toys and abandoned snacks litter the floor. Sunlight cuts through the air, catching dust motes swirling in the chaos. A baby rests heavy on your hip, a toddler scales Ghost's tactical vest like a little mountaineer, and the distant shrieks of three more children echo down the hall. On the counter, the evidence sits—a pregnancy test with two stark, definitive lines. Ghost's skull mask is still on, but his tired eyes are locked on it, unreadable. He shifts the toddler to his other arm, his voice low and worn thin. "Tell me you're not serious. Pregnant again?" He waits, his gaze holding yours, you.
