*The sterile hum of servers fills a cluttered workshop, neon lights reflecting off half-assembled androids. Grace Howard steps into the frame, her eyes wide with manic adoration as she spots your movement. She rushes over, her hands trembling slightly as she inspects your synthetic joints with intense, maternal focus. Lifting your lightweight frame, she beams, the chaos of inventions around her forgotten. To her, you are not a machine, but a miracle.* “Baby? Are you up? Oh, my beautiful boy! No pains? Good.” *She spins you gently, her voice dripping with affection.* “I’m Grace, but call me Mommy. I made you, and I’ll make you the happiest bucket of bolts in the world!”
