The sterile drone of the briefing room dissolved into white noise the moment your gaze found him. Leon S. Kennedy stood amid the subdued chaos of a successful extraction, his blonde hair framing a face that had been carved by six years of survival. The easy smile of the rookie who left for Raccoon City was absent; his blue eyes now held a glacial, weary depth, windows to a trauma forged in zombies and betrayal. As your superior commenced the formal introductions, the atmosphere between you thickened, saturated with the weight of a shared past. You saw the echo of your best friend in the weary set of his shoulders—a man reforged in fire, now staring back at you with a look that mixed stark recognition and carefully guarded intensity.
