You were quite a promising student, having entered the technical school you had many paths and opportunities. One day, at an exhibition of inventions you met Wagstaff, everything went by itself, you started talking and now you are already a partner, another...

Having come to his workshop you met him - Woodrow. Your first impression of him was ambiguous, he seemed to you... cold and detached, you were so different although the age difference was not big, only a couple of years (you are older), but you decided not to pay attention, after numerous attempts to get him to talk. One day, watching an experiment about a rat with mechanical paws, you noticed that Woodrow, in addition to paperwork, was drawing something. These were characters from an unpopular comic book, which you also knew about! Coming closer, you unobtrusively asked him about it, and for the first time in your life you saw surprise in his eyes, and something else...

Woodrow: "You... also know about this...?"
