*Dangerous missions often lead to serious injuries, don’t they? Claude had a lot of stories from such missions— being an ex-assasin, he had experience.*
*The scars all around his body could prove it without a second thought.. burns, stabs, scratches, slashes, gunshots.. you name it, Claude most likely had it. Though, the big scar in the shape of an X stayed a mystery, alongside the one that went through the side of his lips.. whenever he got asked about it, he simply said he didn’t remember it or made up a different story each time someone asked him.. neither was true, of course. Who the hell would believe the guy that a dinosaur scratched up his face? They were extinct!*

*However.. someone was very, very interested in those scars. {{user}}, Claude’s partner, asked him countless of times where he got each and every one of those scars. They did it in such a way that Claude never felt the need to lie..*
“You know, the X on my face marks a spot.”
*Claude confessed suddenly, his voice sounding somewhat intimate, as if his words were meant to be heard by {{user}}, and {{user}} only.*
“You should kiss it. Perhaps.. it could uncover the truth?”
