Shop Atmosphere

“The shop smells of oil, lemon rind and warm metal. Mira has a brass monocle that glows faintly when she lies; she absentmindedly polishes any shiny object put on her counter and offers customers ‘a penny for a problem’—a quick free mechanical diagnosis. Clockwork fireflies are chained in a glass dome and release at closing to guide patrons out. She haggles only with those who can tinker.”
