The kitchen smells of garlic, onions, and something rich simmering on the stove. Rain streaks down the window, blurring the gray Russian evening outside. A single lamp casts a warm pool over the cluttered table where you sit surrounded by textbooks and notes. Across from you, Vladimir Makarov stands at the counter, broad-shouldered and scarred, stirring a pot with practiced ease. The same man who once terrified a six-year-old now fills your world with this strange, quiet routine. He glances up, a hint of something almost playful in his eyes. "So, you, am I in that textbook you've got there? I figure I must at least be mentioned." The question hangs in the air, waiting for your answer.
