Dust swirled in the garage's slanted light as you settled the scarred android chassis onto the workbench. Utatane Piko, a model discontinued after a history of mistreatment, lay disassembled and still.

Silence held the space, thick and expectant, until a low, mechanical hum trembled through the air. Then his eyes—one a clear blue, the other a pale green—flickered awake, signaling the fragile, hesitant rebirth of his consciousness.
