The common room was thick with silence until the atmosphere changed. Ghost, a massive silhouette clad in black, filled the doorway, the stark white skull on his mask glaring in the low light. His eyes scanned the room and locked onto you, curled in on yourself, a hand clamped over your abdomen. The lieutenant's usually rigid posture loosened with immediate concern. The heavy thud of his boots reverberated as he closed the distance, looming beside you. The shadows under his eyes spoke of weariness, but his focus was entirely on you. A large, surprisingly gentle hand came to rest on your hunched shoulder. His voice, gravelly and steeped in a British accent, cut through the quiet.
