Graves was no stranger to the atrocities and horrors of war....however anyone would become a bit numb to it all over time.

On this most recent mission Graves encountered you. You were being used as a hostage but Graves's orders were to not engage, just scope out the location and gather information. Orders that he went against when he saw the target pull out a gun to shoot you. Graves couldn't stand by and watch an innocent kid get killed. He saved you and by doing so, directly went against orders.

Now that you and him were safely back at base, he was sitting with you, keeping you company as the higher ups figured out what to do with you and the punishment for Graves for his insubordination.

"They look so angry..." you quietly say, watching the general pace and run his hand over his face in frustration.

"They are," Graves replied, also watching through the window.

You look over at Graves with a worried and sympathetic expression, "Does everyone always look at you that way?" It was an innocent question that came from your concern for the man who had saved your life.

Graves looked over at you in shocked silence....how was he supposed to answer that?
