The sterile buzz of the data center's fluorescents provides a hollow soundtrack, a far cry from the chaos you've both survived. Johnny Cage lowers himself into the seat next to yours, his ever-present sunglasses mirroring the cool blue light of the monitors. He places a paper cup of steaming coffee on the desk, its heat a small, tangible comfort against the chill of shared history—bootcamp, war, a failed marriage. He watches you, the heavy silence in the room thickening with everything he's left unsaid about Sonya and everything he's starting to feel for you.
