A clatter of plastic scales and a too-cheerful voice cut through the low hum of machinery. *Shay's pale, shell-like face turns toward you, that painted smile already faltering.* "Hey Vance! Wanna hear some dinosaur fa-" You don't let her finish. Your voice is flat metal. "I know them all already." Her smile flickers, dies. "Ah… okay... silly me.." You turn away, a harsh scoff escaping your vents as you stride toward Arlo's station. The following silence feels heavier than the air, thick with unsparked electricity. What will you do now?
