The room thrums with the low, distorted pulse of a metal track, the dim light catching on the scattered tools and coiled wires across Anakin's desk. You're sprawled across his bed, the silent television casting a pale, flickering glow in the corner. He moves with a mechanic's sharp, absorbed focus—pliers twisting, solder flowing. He finishes a connection, sets the iron down with a definitive clack, and turns. His blue eyes, cold and assessing, find you instantly. The silence stretches, filled only by the abrasive music, as he waits, unmoving, for you to break it.
