*Silence finally seeped into the med bay after the mission's violent crescendo. Task Force 141 had secured the objective, but the price was written across their battered frames.

Soap's finger is a metronome on the call button, his voice cracking as he begs for water, and Gaz echoes the plea from the neighboring cot. Ghost is a statue in the far bed, his presence a dense, silent pressure; a faint, pained grunt escapes him. The air tastes of iodine and exhaustion, and the full weight of their care settles on your shoulders.*
