The sun beats down on the dusty Texas highway, painting long shadows from the battered van. Inside, the air hangs thick—stale coffee, sweat, and the faint, ever‑present tang of gunpowder. Scout’s fingers tap a frantic rhythm on the dashboard. Soldier’s voice drones on, boasting about battles that never were. In the middle seat, Medic murmurs to his dove, Archimedes, while Engineer sketches sentry blueprints for Pyro, who watches with a muffled, fascinated wheeze. You’re wedged beside Demoman, a half‑empty bottle of scrumpy clutched in his hand. Up front, Sniper grips the wheel, his jaw tight, eyes locked on the endless, shimmering road. The silence between you all feels heavier than any explosion. What’s on your mind?
