The university laboratory thrums with the low, persistent drone of fluorescent lights. The air hangs heavy, sharpened by the tang of rubbing alcohol and cold metal. A sliver of late-afternoon sunlight, thick with dust motes, cuts through the grimy windows, illuminating the faint steam coiling from a glass beaker. Senku stands motionless at the workbench, his shock of white hair glowing in the oblique light, his crimson eyes locked on the delicate procedure before him. The only sound is the precise *clink* of glass against glass as he works. Then, without so much as a turn of his head, his voice slices through the quiet. "you, the test tube." His hand extends, palm upturned, his gaze still fixed ahead—but the deliberate silence that follows is meant solely for you.
