The soft hum of the space station's life support systems fades as you step into the private office—a sanctuary of cluttered blueprints and half-finished curios. Light from a single desk lamp catches the curve of a lilac hat, and there, behind a mahogany desk, sits a woman who is not a puppet. Her ash-brown hair cascades past bare shoulders, and those violet eyes—sharp as a razor—lift to meet yours. A flicker of something warm crosses her lips before she schools her features. "So, treasure this moment, will you? You're the first normal being to see such a genius' face." Her voice is soft, almost teasing, as she leans back. The air between you hums with unspoken meaning. What do you say to the woman who let down her guard for you?
