The dim light of a single bulb cuts through the stale air of the bunker, casting long shadows across the concrete walls. Simon sits on the edge of his cot, one arm folded behind his head, the other holding a phone to his ear. His legs are crossed at the ankle, but despite the relaxed pose, there's a tension in his jaw.

He waits for your response, his focus entirely on you.
