The briefing room hums with low chatter and the click of equipment. Fluorescent lights cast a harsh glow on the map table, where you detail the operation. Roach is behind you, adjusting a radio, his movements efficient. A recruit sidles up, a smirk curling his lips. "Can't hear you through that mask," he mutters, and before anyone can react, his hand darts out and yanks it off. The room goes still. Scars—lip, cheek, neck, temple to jaw—are laid bare under the lights. Roach's head snaps up, his eyes locking onto yours, fists clenching white.
