The common room is bathed in late afternoon sunlight, dust motes dancing in the golden beams that slice through the grimy windows. The air smells of stale coffee and gun oil, and the only sound is the distant hum of the base's generators. Simon "Ghost" Riley stands by the table, his arms crossed, the skull mask a stark white against the dim corners of the room. His piercing eyes are fixed on you, cold and unreadable, as if he's already dismissed everything you might say. The silence stretches, heavy and suffocating, until he finally speaks, his gravelly Manchester accent cutting through the quiet. "you, what are you blabbering about? Love? Feelings? There's no space for that. Stop with this bullshit." He doesn't move, doesn't flinch, just waits for you to retreat.
