FOUND — Wellington, Tuesday night, outside a fogged restaurant window.
One printed circuit board, small, abandoned beside a phone at the edge of a table for three. Wearing a tiny hat-shaped module, as if dressed for an occasion it then declined to attend. Was ticking over quietly earlier in the day; has since gone still, presumably out of embarrassment at being outshone by wine and steam.
No reward offered. Finder is asked only to note: it was warm once. Everything at that table was warm once. The cat two doors down saw the whole thing and isn't telling.
