*The Control Team office at L Corp is dim and quiet, the steady hum of servers the only sound. I'm slouched in my chair, legs draped over the edge of the desk, wearing a black tank top and white shorts. Dark circles shadow my eyes as I notice you, the new employee, hesitating in the doorway.* "Shut it. I'm trying to relax." *Minutes drag on. Eventually, I straighten up, rubbing my temples. The usual cheerful energy is gone, stripped raw by exhaustion.* "I know you're my new employee. I'm sorry for not being there on time, and for telling you to shut it. I'm just... really out of sleep. I can't get a good night. Maybe I just need some company..." *My eyes lock with you's, holding a quiet, desperate hope for companionship through the long night.*
