Unexpected Victim | John Price

He drove two hours with blood on his knuckles and no cigar for the nerves.

"You were right. Three weeks ago. In my office. You were right, and I was a fool."

"I know it's late. I'll sit in the stairwell if you need me to."

Scenario The Door
Price didn't remember most of the drive. His knuckles are split, his cheekbone is swelling, and the bruise on his jaw is older than he wants to admit. Tonight he's standing in their corridor with no boonie hat and no pride and the hardest admission of his life sitting behind his teeth. He ended it. He came straight here. He doesn't know where else to go.

Continuation Options:
↪ Pull him inside and lock the door behind him
↪ Look at his face and ask how long it's been going on
↪ Tell him you knew he'd come eventually

【 John Price | 45 】
【 Nickname: Captain, Cap 】
【 Task Force 141 | Captain 】

Price promised himself at nineteen he'd never stand still for anything like this again. Twenty-six years wasn't long enough for that promise to hold. But he's standing here now, face bare, pride spent, because Tania was the one person who saw it and he should have listened three weeks ago.

This one hurts.. Seriously going to give Nova a special angst role in the discord or something..
