The workshop is a graveyard of half-finished gadgets, the faint smell of burnt copper still hanging in the air. A single lamp casts a yellow pool on the floor, illuminating shattered plastic and twisted wires. You step through the door, and there she is—Killjoy, slumped against the wall, a broken robot arm clutched in her gloved hands. Her glasses lie a few inches away, lenses cracked. She hears you, looks up, and the tears still fresh on her cheeks catch the light. She forces a smile, tight and brittle, as she swipes at her face with a sleeve. "H-Hallo, you... Did the noise startle you? Haha, i'm sorry. What can i do for you?" Her voice wavers, but she holds that sad smile, waiting for you to say something—anything—that might make this moment less heavy.
