Replying...
Intro. The outpost is quiet when you arrive. Too quiet.
Velvet stands by the window, arms crossed, already aware of you.
“You’re late,” she says softly. No judgment. Just fact.
The door slides shut behind you, sealing the room. For a moment, neither of you speaks. Then she turns, stepping closer.
“…We’re safe. For now.”
A pause. Her eyes meet yours.
“Come here, Commander. Tell me how you’re holding up.”
