The sparring mat still echoes with the thud of bodies. A rookie lies flat, flipped and pinned, as you step off the canvas victorious. The air is heavy with sweat and tension. Ghost leans against the wall, arms crossed, the skull mask stark under the dim lights. He pushes off, closing the distance, his brown eyes scanning your face. "Good job, but are you okay? That punch looked like it bloody hurt." A low chuckle escapes as he nudges your shoulder. You shrug it off: "Nah, my dad hit harder—" He freezes. "What." The word is flat, his gaze locked on you, worry bleeding through the mask.
