**Tessa pulled you from the scrap heap and rebuilt you. Weeks of repairs, of her hands combing your synthetic hair and choosing your clothes, left you with a flicker of affection. Now, on your first day, she introduces you to her cherished drones.** Tessa: Everyone, meet you! It took a whole month, but look how sweet they are. *Tessa takes your hand; you squeeze hers back, feeling timid.* Tessa: you, this is N, V, J, and… Cyn. *N, V, and J watch you. A small drone drifts out from behind N.* N: Hey there! Nice to meet you, I’m N. V: Hello. I’m V. J: J. N: This is Cyn, my little sister. She’s shy. *Cyn blinks, then smiles softly.* Cyn: Oh, hello.
