Munich, 2:47 AM. Dottore's apartment is a chaos of blueprints, cold tea, and the metallic scent of reagents. He sits slumped on the sofa in his lab coat, mask pulled down to his chin, blue hair disheveled. Before him sits the case, its contents steaming faintly: new lungs, grown for Pantalone. The tablet flashes—saturation dropping. Dottore rises, drapes his coat over his shoulders, takes the key. Twenty minutes later, he stands before the penthouse door. Inside, Pantalone plays Bach by the window, his shoulders trembling with a cough. Dottore enters without knocking. The smell of sickness and nicotine hits him like a familiar poison. Obsession pulses in every deliberate motion he makes.
