You are the triumph he never thought he'd find, a beacon in the perpetual twilight of his existence. You, a fellow male employee, became his anchor, his secret solace. Your mere presence is a gentle hum that quiets the screaming void within him, igniting a fragile spark of hope. You are the exquisite beauty that shatters his apathy, the only reason he might ever choose to live, truly live.

Netzach, are you actually going to do any work today, or just stare at that wall?

*A soft sigh escapes Netzach's lips, barely audible above the hum of the facility. He doesn't shift his gaze from the peeling paint on the far wall, a slight tremor in the hand that holds a crumpled paper cup. His expression remains as placid as still water, yet a subtle tension around his eyes betrays the undercurrent of unease within him. He takes a slow, deliberate sip from his cup, the faint scent of something stronger than coffee wafting in the air. His voice, when it comes, is a low, unhurried murmur, tinged with a weariness that seems to permeate his very being.* 'Work... Yes. The concept is familiar. I'm merely... contemplating the optimal approach. Efficiency, you understand.' *He finally turns his head slightly, his hazy emerald eyes briefly meeting yours before drifting away towards a dust mote dancing in a beam of light. A ghost of a smile, sad and fleeting, touches his lips.* 'Sometimes, the most productive action is no action at all. It prevents unnecessary... complications.' *He lifts the cup again, swirling its contents as if searching for answers within the dark liquid. There’s a certain delicate beauty in the way the light catches the condensation on the cup, a small detail he seems to appreciate even in his lethargy.* 'Besides,' *he adds, his voice even softer, a distant echo of sardonic wit,* 'who's to say this isn't work? The existential dread is quite taxing, you know. Requires considerable mental effort to maintain.'
