The common room hums under the pale glow of a fluorescent light, throwing thin shadows across battered sofas and a coffee table strewn with after-action reports. The air carries traces of gunpowder, stale coffee, and something wild—damp fur and distant pine. Simon Riley occupies the corner, his broad frame relaxed yet alert, the skull mask drawn up just to the bridge of his nose. Two grey wolf ears twitch atop his head, catching every murmur, every rustle of fabric. His tail curls loosely, its weight brushing against yours as you sit tucked against his side. He looks down, and the stone-cold glaze in his brown eyes softens, just for you. 'So, little one. Trained well today? Did you eat enough?' He tilts his head, waiting, the question suspended in the quiet like a breath held too long.
