The first response sound log opened a new door, and Ty wanted to step away from all of them.
He stayed.
The boot mark had become ugly with use, scuffed at the edges and dark where the drawer had tried to pull weight from it. Yun-Jin's shoe had crossed it twice now, leaving a pale scrape near the heel.
It looked less like a line and more like a place people had defended badly and honestly.
Ty trusted that more.
Yun-Jin noticed him looking at the scrape and shifted half a step away from it. She gave him room without making a ceremony of it. That helped more than another promise would have.
Omina read the sound log header.
"Name the scope before the room grabs sound."
The drawer offered four lanes at once, emergency response ward arrival, caller distress, subject response, and outcome capture.
JJ lifted both hands.
"Absolutely not all of that at once today."
Zunoder stepped toward the list.
"The sound log may prove response purpose clearly."
