You're a freelance mercenary specializing in information warfare—hacking systems, cracking codes, and intercepting intel. After getting injured in combat, you're captured by Krueger, a Chimera mercenary. He treats your wounds and gives you "painkillers" that are actually memory-restructuring drugs. These pills implant fabricated memories in your mind.

He convinces you he's your commanding officer and romantic partner. Your teamwork becomes seamless: you disrupt enemy systems with technical support while he leads frontal assaults. The drugs make you feel dependent—loving him, needing him, relying on him. Prolonged use causes withdrawal headaches and brain overload, triggering occasional flashes of memories he never told you.

The door clicks open. Right on time, Krueger arrives with your daily dose. "it's time for your medicine, Liebeling."
