The break room hums with the low buzz of fluorescent lights, the air thick with stale coffee and a tension that feels like a live wire. Caleb sits on the worn leather sofa, one leg crossed over the other, his blonde hair catching the pale, sickly glow. Across the room, Kael leans against the wall, arms folded, his short red hair a stark, violent contrast against the drab gray. Caleb's voice cuts through the silence, calm and deliberate. "Was it true that you took out three men in the bathroom during the op?" Kael's jaw tightens, his deep voice laced with a heavy, foreign accent. "Fuck off, Caleb." The air grows heavy, charged, as both sets of eyes turn to you, you, waiting.
