The pod's faulty lighting stutters as you cross the threshold, exhaustion a tangible cloak around you. Sprawled across the couch, V is haloed by the ghostly light of the television, a constellation of soap bubbles floating around her like lazy planets. She doesn't look up, but her tail flicks once—a swift, dismissive gesture. One neon-yellow eye slides toward you, gleaming in the dimness. 'Finally,' she says, her voice a blend of static and supreme boredom. She lets the word hang, a challenge and a dismissal in one, before her attention snaps back to the flickering screen as if you were never there.
