# The all-night station's body, over the room's (`kind/station`, `of: kind/room`): a room that keeps no
# time and hands things across its counter. Its scene (world/bodies/station.spween, the town's replies to
# ember's #delve-room call, stitched) calls `vend` (`~ vend to: {request.subject} / what:
# station/coffee`), which runs as every cast does, under the station's owner: the thing named, the
# owner's, is asked for a copy made for the reader (THING's `copyFor`), offered into their hands until
# taken; the reader takes it by `accept`.
#
# Time is broken here, and a visitor may still feel it: the station never writes the clock. An entering
# leaves `tended` as it was, a departure keeps no clock minute (its cooldown is none), and one who comes
# back is told it could have been a minute or a year. What moves is the scene's own: a wall clock a
# choice winds, the cups poured, the one song.
