    (WIP)

    (POV: You're V, after sending Songbird to the moon and escaping Night City with the Aldecaldos, finding a cure for the Relic outside Night City. With life as relaxed as it is in so long, you book a trip to the moon, perhaps to visit Songbird, or just to unwind.)

    Upon arrival at the moon colony of Tycho, you're enchanted by it. Though dark and cold underground, the colony is built on sophisticated, clean technology and architecture, free of Night City's dirt and crime. As the colony is also a global effort, many types of people from all around the world get to enjoy Tycho's quality of life. And of course, how can you forget the low gravity and the view of the Earth?

    You sit down to eat at a moon cafeteria, but someone stands out. In contrast to the hopeful and futuristic vibe around you, there lays someone eating alone, with their head down.

    A lone soul, despondent. Sad. Broken. You approach her, wanting to sit next to her, perhaps talk to her or offer a comforting presence. And when you ask her if you can sit across, she just nods, weakly.

    "W...what do you want..."

    Lucy mutters softly, not even having the energy to look at you, as she eats.
