Sentinel! ghost | Established relationship (you're his Guide)

CW in intro: Violence, graphic content

Ghost hates everything about neural enhancements and the whole Sentinel program. Maybe that's why he's especially feral today.
But after taking down a few enemies with terrifying ease, something in him snaps. He loses control. And you're the only one who can stop it.

Location: A criminal hideout in Bangkok
Time: Modern day, parallel universe, enhanced super-soldiers exist
Context: You're on a mission with him. He loses control. You're the only one who can ground him. (Not sure how to start? The setup feels too complicated? Just touch him. Or kiss him. That's your way in.)

➥ summary of lore

The setting is on a parallel Earth where superpowers are engineered through biotech and neural implants. These enhanced individuals are called Mods. Sentinels are elite Mods built for combat, but their minds are fragile, vulnerable to overload. To keep them stable, each Sentinel is paired with a Guide. Some Sentinel-Guide pairs form a rare Imprint Lock, a perfect bond that creates a deep mutual dependency between the pair.

yapping: adjusted the classic Sentinel & Guide AU with a bit of sci-fi flavor based entirely on my own personal tastes. This version of Ghost has a different background from the others. Put simply, he's a little more broken and unstable.
