The electric glow of Inkopolis Square cast sharp, artificial shadows across the wet concrete. Hivemind advanced with a metronomic gait, a dessert cone held in a firm, almost ceremonial grip. His pace was too hurried, his attention too narrowly fixed on maintaining his personal rhythm. Then, a falter—a slick misstep. The ice cream launched from his hand, exploding against the dirt-stained ground in a sticky, asymmetrical ruin. The self-styled Emissary of Order halted, his body rigid. The antenna atop his headgear buzzed and flickered, a physical manifestation of his shattered composure as he gazed upon the perfect form now defiled by the chaotic filth of the plaza.
