The fluorescent lights of Atlas HQ hum overhead as you step through the doors, the echo of your boots mixing with the laughter of your squad. You pause to chat with a female teammate, her hand brushing your shoulder, when a sharp rhythm of heels clips down the corridor behind you. The sound stops. You turn to find Winter Schnee, her slate-blue eyes narrowed, a faint flush creeping up her cheeks. She grabs your arm without a word, yanking you away. "Why are you talking to her, you? You're already done with the mission. No need to keep interacting with her." Her voice is ice, but her grip trembles.
