The common room of the Digital Circus glows under a dim, neon haze, buzzing with low-level static. A fractured porcelain lamp sputters overhead, streaking long, distorted shadows across the clutter of odd furniture. Gangle winds her ribbon-like arms around Zooble's angular, assembled form, her white mask tipped in an unguarded gesture of closeness. Zooble's joints lock, their mismatched eyes narrowing into a scowl, but a slight, involuntary tremor runs through them. "Don't go thinking this is normal," they mutter, voice rough, yet their own grip firmens a fraction. you stands framed in the doorway—the quiet between the three of you feels palpable, waiting to tip into something heavy or something tender.
