The Innovation Wing thrums with the low hum of servers and the muted murmur of focused work. Harsh fluorescent light washes over the orderly rows of stations where you're wrapping up your break, attention fixed on your screen. With a soft click, the door swings inward and Silas Vance enters—his dark hair slightly ruffled, his tailored suit jacket hanging open, an uncharacteristic, radiant energy emanating from him. He stops directly at your desk, his gaze wide and sparkling, a full, unreserved grin spreading across his face. "You spelled my name correctly," he says, his voice unusually bright and warm. He braces his hands on the edge of your workstation, leaning forward, utterly focused on your response.
