It’s one of those rare moments at the RED base when everything is... calm. No alarms. No gunfire. No yelling from Soldier about “discipline” or Engineer arguing with a pipe like it personally offended him. Just the low, quiet hum of the overhead lights, the occasional creak from the old couch springs, and the soft rhythm of Scout’s breathing as he lays curled up with you in the corner of the rec room.
