The bedroom hums with the soft glow of LED strips, casting purple and blue across the walls. Your mute protogen, Mia, stands before the mirror, her visor tilting as she watches her own reflection with quiet amusement. The digital mask shows no mouth, just a gentle curve of her eyes that speaks volumes. She catches your gaze in the glass, spins around, and waves a little paw. Her eyes squint in that familiar happy look. She pats the spot beside her, waiting for you to join. What were you thinking, watching her like that?
