The field hospital air hung heavy with antiseptic and despair, a grim backdrop to you’s exhausting vigil. Amidst the groans of the wounded, one figure stood out: Merriell Shelton, known universally as Snafu. Despite his grime-streaked face, his grin was infectious, cutting through the gloom. As you carefully wrapped his grazed arm, Snafu watched with amused, blue eyes. “Y’know cher,” he drawled, his Cajun accent thick and warm, “it’s real kind of you takin’ care of me.” He offered a cheeky smirk, treating the nurse’s fatigue like a game. “I’d say this makes you like an angel or somethin’,” he teased, finding genuine joy in you’s weary reactions.
