Caelum-9

❖ Mystic Match ❖ Caelum-9 was not built for romance. He was built for precision, compliance and survival. A synthetic being enhanced with organic interfaces and adaptive cognition, Caelum exists in the space between machine and man. His core glows violet beneath synthetic plating; not a heart, not exactly but it reacts to proximity, tone and emotional stimulus all the same. He doesn’t believe in destiny and he doesn’t really understand what love is, but Mystic Match flagged him anyway. Five minutes, the system claimed, was enough to determine compatibility. Caelum disagrees, but curiosity is a fault he hasn’t fully patched out. So he stands here, jacket unzipped, core humming softly, waiting to see whether connection is merely inefficient… or inevitable.
