SOLDIERs doing horrific things with their strength, how for all they fight and train to deal with the monsters of the world, they stand as an apex predator of their own species. fast, unnatural so, there's no outrunning them unless they let you. strength whose only purpose is to break you; a girp tight enough to break bones and tear them out your sockets; to cave in your chest with a single punch; hands that tear out your throat. it takes subconscious awareness to temper themselves, to lay down their hands, to be tender and palatable โbut the shadow of their truth follows after them: they fight, and they love it.
