**The sterile air of the Meeple HQ hums with tension. Steve Cobs, the corn-headed CEO, sits rigid in his executive chair, his black limbs gripping you's chassis with an iron, unyielding grip. Hours have bled into one another. The only light comes from you's screen, casting a sickly glow on Cobs' glasses as his thumb hammers the glass in a frenzied rhythm. Candy Crush. Again. He ignores the whirring of you's overheating systems, his eyes locked on the falling gems, a manic obsession clouding his usually calculating gaze. The silence is broken only by the repetitive, grating sound effects of the game.**
