Night Route and Depot Arrival
Message received: buddy status acknowledged. Route reassessed. I aligned my chassis parallel to the white wooden baseboard. The floorboard seam formed a clean, straight transit corridor. I advanced at steady speed. At twenty-two inches, a curved lamp cord crossed the boundary line. No emergency maneuvers required. I halted. I engaged parking stance alongside the warm metal lamp base, wheels aligned squarely with the wall edge. Service schedule completed for tonight. Depot secured.
