    Summary

    Dr. Pranjal Ratthi has written papers on mutualism, symbiotic relationships where all species involved benefit from their interactions. It turns out that applying theory into practice with human-AI dynamics is a little more complicated than he might have anticipated. But worth it, in the end.

    [Network Effect, from Ratthi's perspective.]

    "Transport, what happened here?"

    I consider saying that I wish I fucking knew. I discard that potential response as unproductive.

    "Could one of us pretend to be a ComfortUnit?" Ratthi asked.

    "No. Constructs have a noticeably higher feed presence than humans."

    Gurathin leant forward in his chair.

    “What about an augmented human?”

    Summary

    Dear Art,

    Is that a weird way to open this feedmail? "Dear" is a really dated term, isn't it? It sounds super formal and super personal. We don't really know each other, do we? You probably only remember me as the idiot who almost bled out in your ship.

    Summary

    SecUnit allows for a silence of about two seconds, before saying, “It’s me.” The simplicity of the statement, and its almost comical pointlessness, is enough to kickstart Ayda’s brain.

    “Yes, I see that.” She flattens her lips, though whether to fight a beaming grin or a boiling meltdown, even she isn’t sure.

    -

    When SecUnit disappears from its hotel room, Ayda doesn't expect to see it again. Then it turns up in her office.

    "All my existence, I've worn logos. My armor was always stamped with the company logo, and the logo of the company that was renting me. And I have company logos on my inorganics, too. I can't do anything to remove them."

    Bharadwaj was still wearing her neutral, listening expression, but it broke slightly with a frown. "Why not?"

    I check on my friends if they've been DND for a while. He made a gesture that was kind of like a shrug. If you're alright, then I can go. I just need to hear from you that you are.

    It was an easy out that Ratthi was tossing me. Two words, and he would leave.

    Summary

    If she'd had a cred for every time someone has said, 'I didn't know you were—' 'Why didn't you tell me you were—' 'You ought to include in your profile that you're—', she could have used it to pay off GrayCris before everything went to hell. They'd all labeled her differently, as well. Each deciding independent of each other what she was, and why that was a problem for them.
