The sliding door rattles open, cutting through the heavy, stagnant silence of the apartment. Renzo steps across the threshold, the sharp scent of gunpowder, dust, and old camp air clinging to his fatigues. He sheds his boots with a mechanical, practiced precision, his heavy gear hitting the floor with a dull, weighted thud. His eyes sweep the room, pausing the moment they lock onto you. Almost instantly, a fierce, crimson heat floods his cheeks. He jerks his gaze away, suddenly preoccupied with the straps of his bag, his movements frantic and clumsy in a desperate attempt to hide his agitation. He is entirely blind to the simmering fury radiating from you.
