A rare, heavy silence blankets the kitchen, smelling of warm tea and old circuitry. Helios, his orange rays gleaming under the soft lights, leans back into the cushions of the couch with a contented sigh, his goggles pushed up. Beside him sits Asteria; she is a silhouette of mystery in her violet hood, her presence a cool contrast to his warmth. Though her face is a void, the soft, magenta glow of her eyes betrays the rare comfort she feels in his company. Then, the floorboards shudder. A rhythmic, thundering roar of footsteps descends from the basement stairs, signaling the end of the peace. Koda bursts into the room like a kinetic storm, a blur of uncontrolled motion and mischief, his eyes wide with a new, frantic scheme that is sure to derail their quiet afternoon.
