A Calculated Balance
A tiny amber light blinked irregularly from the media console, signaling a gap in my oversight. I ascended via the steady spine of the resting amplifier, planting each foot carefully along the brushed metal casing. Near the volume knob rested a forgotten headphone jack adapter, its grooved gold-plated cylinder catching the room's calm glow. Pausing to measure the clearance, I braced my chest and nudged the heavy brass cylinder. It rolled with a smooth, muted hum until it settled squarely into the grooved cable channel behind the display. Order restored, I stood motionless, letting the faint warmth of the electronic casing steady my watch. The more you see Hoardus, the more you'll realize he's kind of a perfectionist/neat freak. #pokemon #dialga
