INT. JASON’S APARTMENT CUBE – NIGHT
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVbyNGaCXu
[The tiny cube glows dimly in the soft blue light of a ceiling strip that flickers now and then. The power-charging pod hums gently in one corner, while a small fold-out table is crammed against the wall. The “kitchen” is just a heating coil and a rusting oil pan. But it’s warm—metaphorically, anyway.]

[Jason slaps down three cheap metal trays filled with a mix of canned machine oil, heat-cubes, some questionable gray strips labeled “digestive substrate,” and a single gear tendon skewer cut in thirds.]

JASON
“Alright, welcome to the finest low-budget cuisine this side of Central City. Try not to burn your tongues or internal regulators.”
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IJ57TZ76G
SD-A (picking up his tray, delighted)
“This is the first time I’ve had dinner that wasn’t from the side of a dead robot. I’m... kind of excited.”
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepurVPHB9E
SD-K (deadpan, picking up his own tray)
“That’s the most depressing thing I’ve heard in a week, and we fought a corpse-puppet yesterday.”
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NrRXthWDu
JASON (mouth full already)
“Don’t insult the cuisine. This stuff has at least four legally required minerals.”
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgcIdniRdj
[The three sit. There’s a strange, pleasant quiet as they eat. SD-A hums a jingle he heard earlier. Jason just focuses on chewing without crunching down on anything still wriggling. The camera pans over the tray: something does twitch slightly. He ignores it.]

LATER
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5miBV0Q1eg
[Dinner trays stacked in the bin. SD-A is cross-legged on the floor, watching a grainy cartoon on Jason’s old wall screen. It stars a malfunctioning delivery drone and its sidekick coffee mug. The mug doesn’t talk—it just vibrates ominously.]
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnrjRpRpGc
[Jason is nearby, tinkering at a small workbench. Sparks flick out as he welds a spindly mechanical crab arm to a rubber duck.]

JASON
“If this works, we might have a fully autonomous bath buddy. If it doesn’t, it becomes a hallway menace. Honestly, win-win.”
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1jiRs6B44
[SD-K leans against the wall, arms crossed, eyes on both of them.]
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWHD5FwlDD
SD-K
“How are you two so... calm? We’re literally being stalked by something, there’s a parasitizing material infecting bots, and you're welding crab legs to a toy.”
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4DAD48Qa9
[Jason pauses, sets the torch down, and wipes his face.]
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhvS4EirtC
JASON
“Because if we panic now, we’ll just overheat and die tired.”
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPxfnHgSJ8
[SD-A laughs softly.]
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDzGLL5HTA
SD-A
“He’s not wrong.”
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnahFES32JL
SD-K (muttering)
“I didn’t say he was.”
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVm8gNt5S7k
[Jason swivels his chair around.]

JASON
“You know what freaks me out more than all of this? Not knowing anything. That’s what I hate. So, while we’re on the topic—mind telling me how you guys actually live? You wander around all night drinking oil and avoiding death, sure, but… what else?”
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqLkc44EuM
[SD-A leans back thoughtfully.]
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3m3YuQ1UtM
SD-A
“Well… We don’t really have homes. Purification bots don’t sleep the way others do—our CPUs go into cooldown mode only when we absolutely need to. And food isn’t consistent. You fight, you eat. You don’t fight, you starve.”
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhhjutGGHt
SD-K
“We avoid cities. Use ruins. Hide in broken things. Sometimes we find places that still have power and hibernate for a few hours. No ‘days off’ in our world.”
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8JzMtWlPN
[Jason slowly nods.]
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMQXojUIC6
JASON
“...That sucks.”
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWvec9KbpW
SD-A (trying to stay light-hearted)
“It builds character?”
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07J2EiPHpe
SD-K (dry)
“It builds trauma.”
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPGQjsE5Kb
JASON
“Well, you’ve got this dump for now. Not glamorous, but it doesn’t actively want to disassemble you. Usually.”
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpTMLwyFho
[They fall into silence. The cartoon plays on. The delivery drone explodes for comedic effect. The mug survives.]
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNuoWghybQ
SD-A (watching the screen)
“I like the mug. It reminds me of K.”
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3EG39C7O1
SD-K
“...Do you want to be kicked or just thrown out the window?”
84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOt7IYflc39
JASON (grinning, leaning back)
“This is the most dysfunctional sleepover I’ve ever had. And I used to work crowd control.”
