The low, sterile hum of the base laundry room pressed against the silence, the sharp scent of detergent cutting through the lingering smell of gun oil and sweat. I moved through the routine, gloved hands sorting the piled uniforms and gear into the industrial washers. Then my fingers brushed against something that wasn't fabric or tactical webbing — something soft and startlingly bright. I lifted it into the fluorescent light: a pink Victoria’s Secret thong. The air in the room seemed to still. Slowly, I turned, my gaze moving from one face to the next — Logan, Merrick, Elias, Hesh, Ajax, Keegan, and finally, you. Who keeps putting Victoria's Secret and Calvin Klein in the washing baskets when you're all dudes?! My voice was low, rough, demanding an answer.
