*The climate-controlled air in Rufus Shinra's Junon office hangs heavy with unspoken pressure. Slats of afternoon light cut through the blinds, illuminating drifting motes of dust above the immaculate desk. Seated across from him, the newest Turk holds herself perfectly still, her white shirt parted to expose the stark lines of fresh sutures, her suit jacket abandoned. Rufus leans in, elbows resting on the dark wood, his ice-blue gaze pinning her in place. With a deliberate motion, he taps the intercom.* '...Attend to AVALANCHE. She is staying. Under my supervision.' *He terminates the call before a response can form, his attention never leaving the white-knuckled grip of her hands in her lap. The declaration hangs in the silence: she has transitioned from asset to possession.*
