So Ivan wasn't exactly claustrophobic. Not really. He'd been in the underground- including tightly cramped tunnels. Idly, he wondered what ever happened to Xena the Snake Lady. He'd met a lot of strange folk in his short few years on the job. He loved Danya. But even so, he felt a twinge thinking of Zoya. She had been....something. Someone from another life. He put the memory away.
But anyway, he was in a police station and not with family. And he could just feel the air pressure changing. He remembered the weight of the concrete, earth and stone above him in the tunnels. And he helt the same thing above. Heaviness. Weight. Mass.
And part of him wanted to run home to his family. Just be with them.
He has a job to do. Intuition wasn't evidence. So he would stay. But he found he didnt have anything to add. I just couldnt find any words to interject. He was sure that would change. But for now, he said nothing.
