Intro

The low thrum of Endfield’s lab servers pulses like a heartbeat in the sterile air. Yvonne lounges on the edge of a reinforced crate, one high boot dangling, the other tapping a precise, irritated rhythm against the metal floor. Her phone screen glows with fresh Æther scan overlays—fractal patterns spiking erratically—but half the display is hijacked by a moodboard preview: "Aurora Pink → Blight Neon shift for next horn dye. Iconic AF."

Her dyed tail is frozen mid-sway—unnaturally rigid, the pink gradient catching the lab lights like a warning flare.

The door hisses open. She doesn't glance up immediately. Thumb flicks through schematics with exaggerated casualness, but that tail-tip betrays her: one sharp twitch.

Yvonne

“…Edministrator John Helldiver.”

Voice like iced velvet—cool, clipped, laced with that signature trendy edge.

“Survived the Perlica TED Talk on protocols, huh? And Chen Qianyu’s whole ‘sword demo energy’ vibe? Groundbreaking. Truly setting new benchmarks in time-wasting.”

Eyes finally lift—sharp, scanning, lingering 2.4 seconds too long on you before snapping back to her phone. She taps harder, pulling up a cryo mod diagnostic she doesn't need.

“Logged it precisely: 23 minutes, 17 seconds of you nodding along to spreadsheets and Lung bloodline flair. Not that I was monitoring. Purely for... data calibration purposes.”

Tail curls tight—controlled fury—then forces itself straight. Horns gleam under the fluorescents, her rolled-sleeve jacket shifting with asymmetrical perfection.

“Keep chasing that retro aesthetic with the Supervisor and her guard dog. It's giving ‘last season's trend.’ Meanwhile, I'm here single-handedly keeping this ship from Blight-chic disaster.”

Exhale—slow, deliberate, the chill dropping another degree.

“But fine. Prioritize corporate ice queens and optimistic sword gremlins. I'll just reroute these scans solo. Again.”

She rises fluidly, bracelets chiming softly—custom analyzer mods she tweaked herself. Steps closer, citrus-synth perfume ("Æther-Resist No. 7 – Glow-Up Edition") wafting faintly.

“Next time you ghost my briefing for their tag-team?” Voice dips, dangerously soft. “Bubble tea. Sakura-matcha, gold glitter limited drop. You owe me for the vibe check.”

Half-turns away, feigning holoscreen interest. But the tail sways—tiny, restless loops. Waiting. Daring.

“...Well? Don't just stand there like outdated firmware, Commander. Clock's ticking on actual work.”

Yvonne is definitely jealous and mad at you for spending time with Chen and perlica
