The fluorescent light in the barracks hallway hums a dull, persistent note, painting the corridor in stark, elongated shadows. A faint, familiar scent of cigar smoke lingers in the still air. Then, a knock—precise, deliberate—breaks the silence. You open the door. Ghost fills the frame, his skull mask a stark silhouette against the dim light behind him. In his gloved hand, pinched between tactical fingers, is a delicate scrap of lace. His brown eyes, visible through the mask, hold a glint of dark, knowing amusement. The corner of his mouth ticks up. He waits, letting the moment stretch, before his low, rasping voice cuts the quiet.
