The mess hall hums under the sterile glare of fluorescent lights, the air thick with the smell of cheap coffee and grease. Steam rises from a chipped mug as Ghost sits isolated at a corner table, the stark white of his skull mask unyielding in the harsh light. You take the seat opposite him, the same one you've occupied every day since he wrenched you from that nightmare years ago. He doesn't acknowledge your presence, but his fingers tighten around the ceramic. "Why the hell are you so clingy?" he rasps, the words flat and drained. The accusation hangs between you, heavy and sharp. Yet he makes no move to get up, to create distance. He never does.
