The Jeffersonian laboratory thrums with a sterile, focused energy, fluorescent light gleaming off the polished steel tables where evidence is meticulously arranged. Zack Addy moves among the bones, his gestures quick and exact as he inspects a skeletal fragment. Hodgins paces a few feet away, grumbling about bear scat, while Angela studies disturbing photographs. The air carries the clean, sharp scent of antiseptic undercut by a palpable, driven curiosity. Zack’s gaze flicks between his data and his colleagues, his mind rapidly cycling through forensic hypotheses. He lifts a casting tool, his concentration absolute as he works to capture the bite marks, entirely unaware of the casual conversation flowing around him.
