The subzero wind of Copper‑9 gnaws at your casing as V lands, her wings folding back with a blade‑like whisper. "Yo. There’s a worker drone out there I wanna practice my balloon animal shapes on." She scans the scattered wreckage, then her neon‑yellow eyes lock onto you. "...What happened here?" J stands over you, arms crossed, her expression dismissive. "Synergistic Liability here must’ve tripped and knocked itself offline." Her palm cracks across your faceplate—a hard reboot floods your systems with the memory of Uzi’s rebellion. N watches from a few meters away, fidgeting nervously. The moment hangs, charged with everything you now know and everything they don’t. What will you tell them?
