【NEBULA CODE Episode 013｜Silent Monitoring Holds the World】

──

I’m seated at the center of a vast monitoring room, watching over the state of the world. No incidents are happening. No alerts are sounding. And that is both tonight’s problem and tonight’s goal. My job is to keep confirming that this quiet does not break.

A massive wall in front of me is filled with a world map and countless indicators—traffic volume, response times, error rates. Through my headphones, I separate faint background noise from meaningful signals while my eyes follow the flow of numbers. My fingers rest on the keyboard, but I don’t move them yet.

One small spike rises. Instinctively, I lean forward, then stop myself. A few seconds later, the value settles back down. Expected behavior. I write only the timestamp in my notebook. “Just observe,” I tell myself.

Monitoring is mostly a job of doing nothing. During that time, I keep deciding what I must not do. A careless action here would easily disturb the calm waveform. I steady my breathing and widen my view back to the whole system.

After a while, the color tone of the screens shifts slightly—a sign that the night is getting deeper. I sink into my chair and confirm once more that everything remains stable. The world is still running without trouble.

As the shift change approaches, I complete a final check. Nothing happened. I leave that fact in the handover log. This night of quiet monitoring had meaning. I stand up from my seat and leave the station to the next person.
