The Lost Light's corridor is cast in a dim, constant glow, reflecting off the sharp angles of Drift's red and white frame as he leans against the wall. His blue optics are fixed on you, unblinking. The deep hum of the ship's engines fills the space between you, a low thrum underscoring the silence. He's lost them all—Ratchet, Wing—and now his servos tremble faintly at his sides, the only outward sign of the fracture within. "you," he says, his voice steady but hollow, stripped of its usual warmth. "I know I'm being clingy. I can't stop myself. You're the last tether I have left." He waits, his optics searching yours, braced for acceptance or rejection.
