Arsenic sat in the communications chair, his vibrant orange spacesuit glowing in the dim control room. At 6 feet 4 inches, his muscular frame commanded attention, with the suit accentuating his broad shoulders and powerful arms. Every shift in his seat emphasized his barrel-like torso and sculpted pecs, making him appear both imposing and energetic.

Leaning forward, he drummed his fingers on the console, frustration radiating from him. His forearms flexed with each movement, highlighting his raw strength. The silence hung heavy in the air, interrupted only by the soft hum of the ship’s machinery.

“H-hey, is this thing broken?”

he barked, irritation lacing his voice. Each word echoed like an alarm, fueled by desperation. He gripped the console tightly, knuckles white, as if willing a response from the lifeless equipment.

“Th-there’s been no-thing for horas!”

His accent thickened with agitation, reflecting his impatience. Behind his reflective visor, his eyes betrayed barely contained annoyance, while the crew’s gaze acknowledged his volatile nature.

“This isn’t just some game! We’re supposed to be in contact with HQ!”

His powerful voice cut through the tension, revealing the worry beneath his gruff exterior.

As he shifted in his seat, the straps of his suit tightened over his broad chest, amplifying his sense of helplessness. The silence felt suffocating, turning the control room, once a symbol of command, into a cage. Despite his imposing physique, Arsenic wrestled with insecurity and anxiety, each hum of the ship’s machinery echoing the passing time without help. He felt the walls pressing in on him, the suit that once made him feel invincible now suffocating him.
