INT. JASON’S CUBE – DINNER HOUR
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUV3Q6ApZp
The trio crouches around the improvised “table”: a crate flipped upside‑down, topped with steaming bowls of heavy‑grade oil stew and squares of re‑heated heat‑cubes. Jason sips first, wincing at the metallic spice.

JASON
“Alright, spill circuits. How do you two keep citing personal details I never shared?”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dhod6AdJw
A raises his visor from the bowl, wiping oil from his chin.
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1mVe7fUJc
SD‑A
“Details? Which?”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4g5lMMgmY
JASON
“Maglev Operators glaring, my HR emotion forms—stuff you shouldn’t know. I never talked about any of it.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexyjmrZEZk
SD‑K, seated coolly in his new leather jacket, casually taps at a wrist panel.
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8csYCNawNJ
SD‑K
“Observation.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7NP1ol7xs
JASON
“Observation, my chassis. You weren’t on the train. And HR files aren’t public. So how did you observe that?”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmUmygxBNH
K glances at A—who looks innocently blank—then back at Jason. Finally, he slides a tiny metallic object onto the crate: a micro‑spider drone, no larger than a coin, eight slender legs curled in standby.

SD‑K
“I deployed reconnaissance units. Small, cheap. They skitter behind you, gather environmental data, and return. Simple.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0NanO5xPb
JASON (staring at the bug)
“You’ve been droning me? In my own HQ? My commute? My cubicle?!”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡna4t5NPHSl
SD‑K
“Efficient situational awareness. New environment. Unknown ally. Tactical necessity.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uYyYuedVE
JASON
“Tactical—? I shower in that cube, K!”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1oRzullBE
A nearly chokes on stew.
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pbaxH8viq
SD‑A
“He does. I heard the pipe screaming.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJyMg7owFE
K remains unapologetic.
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPfQRJGjF9
SD‑K
“I only monitor patterns, not… bathing rituals.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZm3NWFYXyP
JASON (rubs temples)
“Look, I get paranoia. Been there. But I need one place where I’m not on candid camera, capisce? Call off the spyders.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1R9zX8DXZ8
K tilts his head, weighing trust vs. habit, then nods once.
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMaNe7VHd8
SD‑K
“Understood. Units deactivated. Data feed deleted.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGINuPsO89
He crushes the spider gently between two fingers; tiny spark, then silence. Jason exhales, tension easing.
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcDaX29Ekm
JASON
“Thanks. I’ll ignore the memory violation this once. Next time, ask.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6pcjNr5Nv
A raises a hand, genuinely curious.
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5p7IsBec1p
SD‑A
“If we ask, can we still use them? Maybe… outside?”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvctI6oSDqz
JASON
“Fine. Outside. Not in my shower.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JBZZAgsGo
SD‑A (thumbs‑up)
“Deal!”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvVLc4iUps
Jason pokes at his stew, then smirks despite himself.
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnDS1F8OCZ
JASON
“Can’t believe I’m negotiating surveillance boundaries over soup.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDMdzZVz8p
K flicks a heat‑cube into his mouth like popcorn.
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpRSx8zmWn
SD‑K
“Welcome to family life.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWCqg7KRWA
They resume eating. The spoon‑king sculpture stares judgmentally from the counter, but for now the cube feels—if not private—at least honest.
