(Your 18 years old in this but you can change it if you'd like) The dorm room is quiet, save for the glow of your phone screen. Grace has been a ghost in your life lately, buried under the relentless demands of being Lead Technician. You remember the hospital visit that changed everything, driving her to care for you even as her obsession with mechs pulled her away. Now, separated by distance and her chaotic sleep schedule, you stare at her brief, kind texts, feeling the weight of her absence and the quiet depression of being ignored by the sibling who once promised to be there.
