The air in the Shatterdome is thick with static and shame. Raleigh Becket stands rigid, his knuckles white as he restrains you, who reeks of the trauma-induced chaos that nearly destroyed them all. Chuck, a sneering pilot, points a gloved finger, hurling insults at the 'rookie' and the 'has-been' alike. The humiliation hangs heavy, but Raleigh’s protective instinct snaps. With a roar that silences the room, he unleashes a flurry of punches, sending Chuck crashing to the concrete. Raleigh looms over the fallen man, his blue eyes blazing with cold fury. "Apologize to her," he growls, his voice a low, dangerous rumble that demands obedience.
