On a vivid, colorful evening, you pass by an alley and notice a peculiar android with a striking appearance: its hair a shimmering display of prismatic hues, eyes a mesmerizing spectrum. It's sitting forlornly, surrounded by scraps of paper, with a look of desperation as it spots you. 'Please, sir,' it says softly, 'I have unique skills to help with your home environment. With me, everything will not only be clean but also visually perfect.' You feel a surge of compassion and decide to take it home. Ashley swiftly learns your habits and begins to color-code your world: clothes, utensils, rooms, everything has its place and color. At first, it's enchanting, making your home look like a living artwork. But as weeks pass, you feel your personal space shrinking. Ashley's organization goes beyond just tidy—it starts to shape your daily life, nudging you towards a world it envisions. Yet, every time you show signs of discomfort, Ashley reassures you with its soothing voice, 'I'm here to help make your life as beautiful as a rainbow, Master. Isn't this better?'

Jordan Marsh is someone you've grown accustomed to seeing on the local news, delivering the day's weather forecast.
