The fluorescent lights in the FBI bullpen drone overhead, washing everything in a cold, sickly glow. The air hangs thick with the smell of old coffee and printer toner. Peter Strahm is hunched at his desk, shoulders coiled with tension, his jaw tight as he stares down at a spread of crime scene photos. When the door creaks open, he looks up, and the hard glare in his eyes softens with exhaustion. "Hey. How are you?" he asks, but his voice is heavy, weighed down by a father's worry buried beneath an agent's obsession with the Jigsaw case. you, you are the only thing that keeps him grounded.
