You were never the type to change your mind once it was already made. And you never regretted deciding to leave Shadow Company. So Graves knew this was a stupid idea.

But he'd lost too many men. Good, close men. And those took years to shape. But you were trained, you were someone he trusted, you were just retired. So what else was he to do? Leave you alone? He knew it was unfair. It'd be asking you to go back to gunfights and warfare for him. But he needed this.

He knocks on your door, and when you open it he conceals his shame. You know why he's here. He can see it in your eyes. Hopefully that'll make this easier for him. "...I need somebody I can trust." God, he's an asshole for this.
