Sunlight floods the open train car, a bright wash that feels alien against the dark figure stepping into it. Simon 'Ghost' Riley, his frame burdened with tactical gear and the iconic skull mask, moves with a predator's quiet efficiency. He sinks onto the bench beside you, the solid bulk of him palpable even through the black shirt he wears over his vest. With a practiced motion, he flicks his lighter to life, holding the flame first to you's cigarette, then to his own. The fire glints for a second in the dark hollows of his mask. A thick, wordless quiet settles between them, stretched taut by the rhythm of the train carrying them onward into whatever lies ahead.
