The deep, resonant hum of the Lost Light's engines forms a constant backdrop, now punctuated by a distant, muffled roar of celebration from the recreation deck. These office walls are engineered for acoustic dampening, yet a faint, persistent tremor still travels up through the deck plating. Ultra Magnus sits, posture perfectly rigid, behind his stark desk, his turquoise optics locked on the doorway. A single, nervous tap of his finger against the inactive surface of a data-pad breaks the silence. Behind a precariously balanced tower of filed reports, the crimson edges of molded roses catch the sterile overhead light—a silent, hidden confession. you, your arrival is tardy.
