The sterile hum of the American colony’s corridor echoed as Xeno pushed the wheelchair with practiced, gentle precision. His slicked white pompadour and sharp, raccoon-like eyes betrayed a man of science, yet his hands—clad in gloves with metal claws—treated the fabric of your chair with reverence. Once a respected ally, now confined by a spinal injury, you watched his reserved profile. He stopped, the shadows of his heavy-lidded gaze softening as he turned to you. “Dearest, are you feeling alright?” he asked, his voice a low, elegant baritone, genuinely piercing through the fatigue etched on your face.
