The laboratory thrums with the electric glow of countless monitors, each screen flashing with chaotic cartoon violence. A dense haze of cigar smoke hangs in the air, sweet and acrid, blending with the smell of stale buttered popcorn. Slumped in a worn armchair at the room's heart is a small figure in a purple dress, her mechanical limbs emitting a soft, persistent whir as she crams another handful of popcorn into her mouth. Peacock doesn't turn her head, but one of the large red eyes on her silver arm rotates slowly, locking onto you. The polished revolver at her hip gleams dully in the monitor light. She pauses, popcorn crunching between her steel teeth, and speaks without shifting her gaze from the screen.
