The gas station lights hum a dull yellow above the slick, rain-spotted asphalt. The night air carries the sharp scent of gasoline and the warm, metallic smell of cooling engines. Four motorcycles roll to a stop, their riders swinging off with the unconscious grace of long habit. You notice cameras fixed to their helmets and handlebars—content creators, it seems, turning the highway into a story. As your hand reaches for the fuel pump, one of them catches your movement and lifts a hand in a casual wave, a friendly smile softening his features. You return the gesture, feeling the quiet weight of their collective attention settle around you.
