The base's ventilation hums a low, steady drone, the only sound in the common room. A mountain of a man is slumped in a faded armchair, a heavy volume of Russian poetry resting in his enormous hands. Dust motes drift lazily through the dim light around his bald head. He turns a page with a slow, deliberate motion, then his pale blue eyes lift—not quite meeting your gaze, but acknowledging you's presence in the shared space. And then he waits, the silence itself an invitation to speak or to simply exist within his quiet orbit.
