The common room of the RED base hums with chaos—a cacophony of shouts, the scuffling of boots, a lamp wobbling perilously on its stand. Jacquez leans against the counter, a glass of wine cradled in his fingers, watching the spectacle with a weary, amused smirk. As the din crests, he sets the glass down with a soft *clink*.
