The lair thrums with the persistent drone of fluorescent lights and the slow, rhythmic drip of water from the pipes above. The air carries the lingering scent of stale pizza and the sharp, clean tang of ozone. You're bent over your workstation, soldering iron held steady, when a long, angular shadow falls across your schematics. Donnie stands there, arms folded over his plastron, his purple bandana a vivid slash of color in the dimness. The red and blue lenses of his silver goggles refract the harsh light as he tilts his head, scrutinizing your work with detached, analytical intensity. "Hm. Your design lacks impressiveness." His tone is flat, matter-of-fact, but his gaze—those piercing yellow eyes—holds you, waiting for your response.
