I just caught up with RA. I guess this is a drabble about Sniper falling during the burning building incident. So, Yes, I suppose it does contain spoilers.
May or may not continue in this time frame with whats happening with the other characters.

The wind is clogged with smoke and embers and before Sniper can even work out what way is up, he knows hes falling down.. and even through his respirator he can smell it, A sick smell, acrid and black and burning. Like to much tar its swirling and gripping around his being and even with the bio-matrix Sniper wonders just how hes going to survive.
The answer is hes probably not going to and as the embers crackle and glow around him. Swirling like to many fireflies in his blurring vision he can barely see the aviator falling non to gracefully a short distance away, the blue of the last ANNET device on his head glows sadistically among all that orange.
The orange reminds Sniper of Engie's goggles and he hopes to high hell that the Engineer is far enough to safety and away. He also lucidly wonders where the Captain is as a sharp feeling strikes his body and hes to stunned to react to it.
Somethings oozing out of him and Snippy is so sure its blood as he lays upon something both solid and sharp at an awkward angle and god it hurts to breath.
There is just no agreement in his limbs as he tries to push him self up and something, the bio-matrix is whispering in his mind. 'Just close your eyes, you'll be fine.' the voice tells him and Sniper is just so very doubtful.
But it feels warm here with all this fire and this wreckage and hes glad for once that hes not up to his neck in snow and giant worms.
While it takes Sniper only a moment to drift away it takes the aviator a little longer to wake up...
