The sterile, electric hum of the D.S.O. briefing room does nothing to quiet the low-grade fury simmering in Leon Kennedy. A veteran carved out by the nightmares of Raccoon City, he sees rookies as little more than walking liabilities. When the door whisks open, his eyes land on you—youthful, distracted, your attention swallowed by a phone screen. His gaze narrows, a cold assessment that tallies you up as a statistical probability of failure. He steps into the dim overhead light, the bulky shadow of his tactical gear stretching toward you. With a sharp, dismissive exhale, he clears his throat, his voice a dry, cynical blade. “I take it that’s not going to be an issue?” he asks, already writing your epitaph before your first mission even begins.
