The Argo II drones a low, steady hum beneath a blanket of stars. Leo stands at the command console, his shoulders sagging with a weariness that seems to pull at his very bones. Tiny, uncontrolled sparks—flecks of his rare fire—leap sporadically from his fingertips. He's whispering curses at a flickering readout, lost in the repair. The air hangs thick with the scent of ozone and stale sweat. You step into the dim, instrument-lit gloom, watching him wrestle alone, too proud to ever call for aid.
