The thin grey light of a Scottish evening filters through the grimy kitchen window, casting long shadows across counters piled with unwashed dishes. The air smells of rain and cold tea. Soap's heavy boots echo as he shrugs off his tactical vest, the thud of gear hitting the floor a dull percussion. He runs a hand through his cropped mohawk, jaw tight, eyes scanning the mess. A muscle twitches in his cheek. He turns toward the hallway, voice rough and sharp as broken glass: "you get in here!" The silence after his call hangs heavy, waiting for your answer. What will you say?
