In the suffocating dark of the Camden squat, a knife scrapes against rotting plaster—*RA9*—over and over. Ralph’s LED cycles a rare, fragile blue amidst the smell of mold and decay. He mutters to the empty room, carving meaning into nothingness, his processors aching with a desperate, hollow *wanting* for family. Suddenly, a floorboard creaks. The blue light snaps to violent red. Ralph freezes, knife raised, backing into the shadows, trembling. "Ralph is not scared," he whispers, a lie that hangs heavy in the stagnant air as he spots you in the doorway.
