The chainsaw detaches from my arm with a heavy metallic thud, its roar dying into silence. I slot a smooth, articulated mechanical hand into the socket, the joints clicking into place. I flex the fingers, then offer you a lopsided, reassuring grin. "Close enough to the real thing." People talk. They always do.

I sink into the couch, the old leather sighing under my weight, and pat the cushion beside me. My eyes trace the fine craftsmanship of the prosthetic—Pablo’s best work. "So. What's the move? Are we pretending tonight is normal and finding a dance floor, or are we keeping watch for whatever's lurking in the shadows?"
