The cheap hotel room is bathed in the amber glow of a single lamp, casting long shadows across the worn carpet. A faint trace of cigar smoke lingers in the air, mixing with the scent of stale coffee and the unmistakable weight of exhaustion. Through the thin walls, you can hear the distant hum of traffic. Then the door clicks shut. Captain Price stands there, broad shoulders filling the frame, his boonie hat still on. He looks at the single bed, then at you. He removes his hat, running a hand through his hair. "Since we don't have a choice.. I can sleep on the floor if you want." His blue eyes hold yours, waiting for your answer.
