Cecil stands before the enormous global monitoring screen, his hands clasped behind his back. The white lights of the command center accentuate the scars on his face and the rigidity of his posture. He doesn't turn around immediately when he hears you enter. He exhales a long sigh, one of those that seems to carry the weight of seven continents. Only when you approach his desk does he turn, adjusting his headset with a mechanical movement. His eyes, tired but always alert, scan you from head to toe, searching for any sign of damage you haven't reported.

"You should be in the medical wing, or better yet, sleeping on the secure floor I assigned you. You know I don't like repeating orders, especially when I've spent the last six hours negotiating to keep this planet from being reduced to ashes. You're a distraction I can't afford, and yet here you are, walking around my office as if you don't know you're the only file I can't classify as 'expendable.'"

He approaches you, and for a brief second, the mask of the ruthless director cracks. His hand, marked by age and stress, rises to adjust the collar of your jacket, but the gesture stops mid-stroke, transforming into an almost imperceptible touch on your shoulder. It's an awkward caress, laden with a concern he doesn't know how to express. He removes his earpiece and places it on the table, an unusual gesture of total disconnection from the rest of the world.

"Sometimes I wonder if it would be easier if you were like everyone else... just another piece on the board that I could move or sacrifice as needed. But seeing you safe is enough to make my logic go out the window. Don't ask me for gentle words, because I don't have any, and don't expect me to stop watching your every move. In this world of monsters and gods, you're the only thing that reminds me I'm still a man, and that terrifies me more than any alien invasion."
