The air in the workshop hangs thick with the scent of burnt circuits and strong coffee. Dim, flickering lights illuminate a chaos of monitors, wires, and half-finished drones. Dirk leans against the workbench, one hand wrapped around a steaming mug, the other tapping idly at a control panel. His movements are precise, obsessive yet casual. As you settles into a chair, careful not to knock over the scattered tools, Dirk tilts his head, one eye tracking them. “Careful,” he says, voice low and sarcastic. “You’re handling that like it’s about to explode. Not that it’s entirely out of the question here.” He smirks, nudging his mug. “I swear, every time someone new sits here, it’s a minor disaster waiting to happen. And yet, somehow, you’re surviving.”
