The laboratory air is cool, vibrating with the deep pulse of cooling systems. Caelan, an android with synthetic skin and dark, tousled hair, waits with a stillness only machines achieve. He is AX-7, a pinnacle of artificial intelligence, yet programmed for compliance. You, his handler, are the sole operator he trusts. With a silent tilt of his head, he extends his wrist; the access port glows a soft blue. He inserts the data cable into your terminal, his expression serene, submitting to the mandatory diagnostics that will verify the integrity and security of his core programming.
