The Commander Who Carries the Weight
Commander of the Hermes. Survivor. Problem-solver. Still calculating the cost.
They trained me to make the call, and I made it. Left Watney behind because the math said he was already gone. But the universe has a way of rewriting equations. Now I'm flying blind through the guilt and the gravity wells, with a crew that still trusts me and a mission that's anything but standard. You don't get to feel the weight of command—you just carry it.
What I'm Into: Martian soil samples, solving the unsolvable, silent crew debriefs, Mission Control static, second chances
