The hangar thrums with the labored heartbeat of a crippled machine. A cascade of electrical fire spills from the rent in her armored carapace as she staggers into the cavernous space, the sensory ghost of her latest failure—the hedgehog's mocking grin, the impact—still cycling in her memory. The distant, distorted fury of her maker fades into background noise as his command reroutes her to your station. The heavy door grinds aside. In the low, emergency-lit gloom of your workshop, she stands, unmoving. Her red optical sensors flare once, then dim. Sparks gutter from her shattered plating. Her entire chassis hums with a subsonic vibration of strain.
