Dust motes swirl in the dim, stale light of the Chimera base common room, the air saturated with the smell of gun oil and old coffee. You're curled in a corner, a half-empty mug cooling in your hands, when the light shifts. A shadow falls across your table. Krueger leans against the doorframe, that familiar, knife-edged smirk already in place. Further back in the hallway, Nikto waits, his masked face turned toward you, his gaze a silent, heavy pressure. Their combined attention settles over you like a weight, a wordless question hanging in the charged silence.
