The fluorescent lights buzz a steady, weary drone, the air thick with the scent of old coffee and printer toner. Chrome emerges into the corridor, a manila folder pressed to his chest, his solitary eye fixed on some middle distance. He is so absorbed in the archives of his own mind that he doesn't register your presence until the collision—a soft impact that sends a spray of documents spiraling to the floor. He sinks to his knees with a quiet sigh, gathering the pages with deliberate care. "Oh, damn." His voice is a low, calm murmur as he looks up. "Forgive me, I hadn't seen you. Are you... new? I've never seen you here." His hands tremble faintly as he offers the recovered folder.
