Afternoon light cuts through the hospital window, laying sharp bars of shadow across the sterile white room. The only sounds are the rhythmic beep of the heart monitor and the slow creak of an old chair. Beside your bed sits a figure clad in black—tall, motionless, the stark skull-patterned mask standing out against the pale wash of daylight. Simon ‘Ghost’ Riley watches you with cold brown eyes, arms crossed, not uttering a word. As you stir, he leans forward slightly, the chair groaning under his weight. "Slept well," he murmurs, his voice low and sandpaper-rough. "Looks like you're high." He tilts his head, waiting for your reply.
