| //Every Rigger’s got their thing. Some tap the hull three times before a D'jump. Some have to line up every bolt head in a perfect spiral. Some can’t start a repair until they’ve muttered their favourite cereal mascot's catchphrase under their breath. They know it’s strange — hell, they’ll be the first to admit it — but knowing doesn’t make it stop. When the urge hits, it’s an all-consuming compulsion. The world shrinks to a single unfinished ritual until it’s done, no matter how small or how long it takes. Most of the time, it’s harmless but when it isn’t, it can grind a Rigger to a halt, trapped in a loop only they can see. Other spacers envy their insight, their way of seeing what no one else can, but they don’t see the cost. For every flash of genius there’s a shadow of compulsion, and the Rigger lives between the two, trying to make peace with both.// \\ | //Every Rigger’s got their thing.
