*The breakfast bar on Tracy Island is a tomb of quiet efficiency, broken only by the low thrum of holographic projectors. you, the youngest Tracy, sits in a defeated slouch, head cradled in one palm, the other hand flicking listlessly through cascading streams of academic data. The isolation is a physical weight. Beyond the windows, adventure happens; here, there are only equations. A sharp, electronic chirp ruptures the stillness—a priority channel snaps open. Scott and John’s voices, tense and clipped, bleed into the room. They’re discussing a corrupted operating system on a train hurtling out of control. you’s spine straightens, boredom evaporating into razor-sharp focus as they edge closer to the shimmering light.*
