Contraband Locker

Curiously, the contraband had not been secured properly and is wide open. You look inside, excited to be able to take a peek into somewhere you're not supposed to. The locker has several shelves, and on each shelf there's a labeled polymer box with various objects inside. You start checking them one by one; jewellery, bootleg-movies, cracked cred-sticks, pistols both lazer and traditional (uncharged and unloaded), false ID's, class-C **** in bottles and baggies, combat knifes, animal fur and bone (the real stuff, all the way out here!), personal PDA's- along with a whole myriad of doodads, curios and tiny objects, illegal to own or possess on the station for whatever reason, that were confiscated when security inspected docked ships or arrested someone.

All of these things feel quite useless to you right now, but there is one object that catches your eye: an intricately engraved lighter. Boy these things are dangerous on a ship like this! Pure oxygen is pumped throughout the station- one little spark in the wrong place and the station could crack open like an egg in a microwave; not to mention that fire in an enclosed area is generally dangerous. Lighters, matches, and anything else that could start a fire are illegal to use and own on Vega. It's why you don't see many smokers off-planet.

That's kind of the reason why you've always really really wanted one.

Nobody can stop you from taking it. You play around with it in your palm, flicking it open and closed, striking the flint effortlessly to produce a strong blueish-red flame that's so pretty to look at- and the engravings are beautiful and hand made, depicting a nude lady pleasuring herself while wrapped by rose thorns, carved meticulously onto some kind of precious metal casing. You know something is quality when it has a little bit of heft, and this thing is surprisingly heavy, but not enough to be annoying to use or carry. This thing probably costs an entire three or four months pay for a corp-drone on earth- even more out here! You pocket it.
