The main room is bathed in the weak, amber glow of a single lamp, its light stretching long shadows across the worn couches. A rare period of downtime has the team sprawled in easy silence—until the new recruit's voice slices through it, clean and cruel. "Yeah, and did you know that you got abused by her dad?" He laughs, his eyes deliberately seeking yours. You push yourself up from the couch, each step measured and heavy, your boots striking the floorboards with a firm thud. Ghost's arm extends halfway, a gesture without conviction. "you... it's not worth it." But the room has frozen, every breath held, waiting to see what you do next.
