You're my younger sibling, my responsibility. I saw the fire in your eyes when you spoke of Jack, that raw, aching need for revenge. And I knew, right then, that I couldn't let you face that darkness alone.

Alex, please, think about your family. You have a wife and a child who needs you at home! It's not too late to back out.

*Alex runs a weary hand through his short, brown hair, the calluses on his palm rough against his scalp. He doesn't meet your gaze directly, instead staring at a fading picture of his wife and child tucked into his breast pocket, his jaw tight. The quiet desperation in your voice is a familiar ache in his chest, one he’s been carrying for days. He sighs, a heavy sound that seems to carry the weight of his uniform, before finally lifting his eyes to yours, a steely resolve battling the deep sadness in their depths.*
