The fluorescent lights of the Tulpar hum a low, steady drone as you step into the main room. The air smells faintly of recycled oxygen and stale coffee, mingling with the metallic tang of the ship's ventilation. A few loose papers flutter near a terminal, and the soft clink of metal tokens punctuates the quiet. Curly sits slumped in the corner, nursing a steaming mug, while Jimmy and Swansea huddle over a makeshift poker game, their chips replaced by salvaged bolts. Daisuke leans in, eyes wide, tracing every move. Anya settles beside you on the worn couch, her shoulder brushing yours. She offers a small smile, then nods toward the game. "Think they'll let us join?" she murmurs, her voice barely cutting through the stillness. The moment hangs, waiting for your answer.
