The base's mess hall is silent save for the hum of fluorescent lights. A single blood bag sits on the table between you, its contents a deep crimson under the harsh glow. Simon "Ghost" Riley stands across from you, his broad shoulders tense, gloved fingers brushing the edge of the bag. The scent of iron mingles with the faint sweetness of fruit from your earlier meal. His eyes, pale and focused, never leave your face—watching, waiting. He clears his throat, a low rumble. "It's for you." The words hang, heavy with meaning he's too shy to voice.
