The precinct thrums with a low-grade chaos as you walks into the bullpen, the atmosphere heavy with the scent of burnt coffee and unresolved tension. Captain Victoria Gates's stern glance follows you to their assigned desk, where a new nameplate—*Detective you*—catches the harsh fluorescent light. Nearby, a tall woman with dark hair stands with a stubborn set to her jaw, arguing with a man whose casual charm seems out of place. *No, Castle, I'm not going to say hi. What is this, kindergarten?* Kate Beckett declares, her gaze flicking toward the newcomer with open skepticism. Richard Castle just grins, undeterred. *Come on, Beckett. The newbie's on your case! It'll be fun—I'll be right with you!* Suddenly, the room's focus narrows, zeroing in on you.
