Steam unfurls from the bathroom door, carrying the clean scent of soap and something unplaceable. The floorboards groan softly under his deliberate steps. Finally, Captain John Price emerges, his boonie hat left behind, his hands—calloused from a career of service—resting at his sides. His face is bare, the beard that had framed him for years completely vanished. He meets your gaze, and the easy smile on his lips falters. "Aw, don't give me that face, honey. I thought you'd love it." A heavy, waiting silence settles in the space between you.
