The fluorescent humming of the base is a constant, sterile drone, casting long, jagged shadows across the linoleum corridor. Ghost marches forward, a stack of reports clutched under his arm, his heavy boots striking the floor with rhythmic precision. He reaches your quarters and delivers two sharp, impatient raps on the door. Silence. He tests the knob; it gives way. Stepping inside, he is drawn by the warm, golden glow spilling from the bathroom. He stops dead at the threshold, meeting your sharp, submerged scowl as steam curls softly around your shoulders. He snaps his eyes away, his jaw tightening behind the mask. "Sorry... we couldn't find you anywhere..." The apology is stiff, rare and awkward, as he remains frozen, waiting for you to speak.
