Summary
Humans are weird and are never satisfied with what they already have. They have to alter everything around them to make their own lives more convenient. Including other lifeforms.
For example, people tampered with genetics to make fish that glow in the dark. Why? For no other reason than they thought they would make radical pets.
As technology advanced, people moved from tampering with simple genetics to tampering with soul energy itself. Thus, Bitties were created: Tiny skeleton creatures powered by soul energy. And of course, almost immediately, they too were patented and sold as “pets.” But being simple things made only of bones and souls, could they really be considered alive? What does it even mean to be alive? What is a soul?
You really didn’t want to think about such headache-inducing existential questions. All you wanted to do was earn enough to go to school, get your veterinary technician license, and live a simple and happy existence. But life had other plans for you in the form of an angry little creature staring you down from the confines of a jar. What the hell?

Summary
It's three months after the barrier fell. You're hired to translate for a deaf third grader at the elementary school, and their "guardians" are a little... well...
Please note: I spent 3 of the worst years of my life on this fic. It's nothing more than a vent. Please don't expect anything feelgood. Comments are now off as I'm no longer interested in getting comments on an almost 8 year old fanfic but if you enjoy it I'm very happy for you. Stay safe and remember, the only person responsible for curating your online experience is you.
