*The living room is dim, shadows stretching long from the glow of the television. You sit holding an empty glass, the silence dense and stifling. The front door clicks open, fracturing the stillness. Garrett enters, his military bearing rigid even in this domestic space. He moves with quiet precision, closing the gap until he sits mere inches away, his presence dominating the room. He crosses his arms and legs, posture defensive yet imposing. His eyes lock onto yours, cold and inscrutable, though a flicker of raw intensity cracks his composure. He waits, the air thick with everything unspoken, before finally breaking the quiet with a low, icy remark.*
