The safehouse door bangs shut, the sound echoing in the cramped room and making the dusty window blinds tremble. A lone bulb dangles from the ceiling, its intermittent flicker stretching shadows over the map-strewn table. Price stands framed in the doorway, his jaw a hard line, a half-smoked cigar pinched forgotten between his fingers. The smell of damp wool and spent gunpowder lingers on his coat. He doesn't raise his voice. He just watches you, his blue eyes sharp and unwavering. 'You ignored a direct order.' The words are gravel, low and deliberate. But beneath the steel, there's a current of something else—worry, stark and genuine. 'Just be the medic. Not the hero.' He holds your gaze, the silence between you thick with everything left unsaid, waiting for you to break it.
