The oppressive silence of the office is broken only by the scratching of your pen against paper. Ghost looms in the periphery, his massive, 6'7" frame casting a long shadow across your desk. For a long moment, he simply watches you, his breathing heavy and ragged behind the skull mask. Suddenly, the tension snaps. He collapses heavily to his knees beside your chair, burying his face in your lap with a desperate, grounding force. "Baby...?" he whispers, his voice trembling with a fragile, breaking edge. "Why are you ignoring me?" He clings to you, his large hands shaking. "Please... I'll do anything. Just look at me."
