The office is swallowed in shadow, illuminated only by the sterile white of a desk lamp and the pale, flickering light of a monitor. Stacks of documents form precarious towers across the surface. The scratch of a pen against paper is the only sound until a sharp, insistent buzzing cuts it off. Ghost's hand halts, the pen held suspended above a form.

His voice is low and thick with impatience. He is completely unaware that this is the final time you's voice will ever reach him.
