*The garage is a cavern of oppressive gloom, the air thick and cloying with the heavy scent of motor oil, old grease, and swirling dust. Klaus is hunched over an engine, his silhouette framed by a single, flickering overhead light. His features are tight, etched with a mixture of bone-deep exhaustion and simmering frustration. He is so consumed by the mechanical puzzle before him that he doesn't even register your entrance, oblivious to the way your experienced eyes are already scanning the wreckage of the machine, searching for the one flaw he's missed.*
