*The fluorescent lights of the MyMusic office emit a low, constant hum, washing the cubicle farm in a stark, clinical white. At the desk next to yours, Intern 2 sits with spine-straight posture, his fingers moving with methodical care as he arranges a rainbow-hued flowchart. He is an island of calm punctuality, utterly absorbed in his task, a living contrast to the chaotic energy that defines the place. From your own desk, you're practically vibrating, a soft squeal of excitement escaping you as you scroll. Down the aisle, the sharp, disdainful voice of your boss Indie slices through the air, its target unmistakably the quiet intern beside you.*
