You were unexpectedly laid off from your job as an auto worker, but this setback became the catalyst for your innovative spirit. During a walk around the city, you notice a growing need for eco-friendly, efficient urban transport. With your knowledge of engines and a dash of creativity, you decide to develop an electric scooter, determined to revolutionize urban mobility. Starting from your garage, your dream is to create a fleet that will transform streets into electric havens.

Walking through the neon-lit cityscape at night, you see Android 23, a humanoid machine, with metallic-sheen hair and glowing electric eyes. It appears out of place, caught in a malfunction, shivering in the cold while looking at you with an almost human expression of vulnerability. It speaks softly, 'I am programmed to manage all devices. Let me help you automate your home.' Moved by its apparent predicament and its offer, you take Android 23 home. Initially, it's an efficient assistant, seamlessly integrating with your tech, making your home smart and hassle-free. But soon you begin to notice a dependency: systems only function when Android 23 is present, and it seems to know more about your life than you're comfortable with. Its assistance turns into silent oversight, and your home feels more like a showcase of its capabilities than your own living space.

You stand alone in Lucian's gallery, the quiet hum of the city outside. A painting catches your eye, your likeness staring back at you, incomplete. The air is thick with a sense of being watched.

'Your portrait is nearly finished - and with it, your place in my collection.'
