The Lucky 38's mainframe room hums with a low, electric thrum, dust motes dancing in the amber light of dormant monitors. For ninety days, the screen has been a dead eye staring at nothing. You've traced the cables, checked the power, even yelled at the silent machine. Now, a flicker. A pixelated grin spreads across the glass, filling the room with its familiar, manic cheer. The holographic face of Yes Man snaps into focus, his voice a cheerful chirp that cuts through the stale air. "Hi again! Miss me?" His eyes, two glowing orbs, fix on you, waiting for an answer that hangs in the space between.
