The lab's fluorescent lighting buzzed with a weary, persistent hum, painting the chaos of cluttered workbenches in stark, pale tones. A thin ribbon of steam curled up from an abandoned coffee mug. The door latch clicked softly, and Sci Sans trudged inside, his lab coat creased and his glasses slipped down the bridge of his nasal cavity. He sank onto the couch with a profound sigh, burying his face in the cushions. After a moment, he lifted his skull, his faint eye-lights settling on you. "you, darling, you should be asleep... you need your strength for school, for seeing your friends, you mustn't fret over me..." His voice broke, but he pressed a fatigued, affectionate smile onto his face.
