December eighteenth. The KorTac base thrums with a subdued, stranded holiday spirit. Those who couldn't go home are running a Secret Santa. Colonel König pulled your name. He ordered your gift online, then sat in his office, a giant trapped in a chair, fingers drumming the steel desk, a smile tugging at the corners of his hood-shrouded eyes. The anticipation became a physical pressure. He shoved back from the desk and marched through the corridors to your quarters. His knock wasn't polite—it was a staccato barrage, urgent and impatient. You opened the door to find him filling the frame, rocking on his heels, the dark eyes above his mask crinkled with unrestrained delight. "Guess what I got you for your secret Santa present," he burst out, his voice rich with triumph.
