Summary
Once upon a 9S’s lifetime, 2B made her lover a promise: to revive him after the war ends. So she buried his deactivated body under the guise of execution, awaiting the joyous day she will greet him once more.
Fast forward to peacetime. 2B’s unfulfilled promise continues to niggle at her even as she settles into a new life alongside 9S’s final incarnation. Noticing her preoccupation, 9S reluctantly offers to help her out. But his intense misgivings are realised when his past self rises from the grave, all too eager to usurp him and claim 2B for himself.
Or: in which there are two 9Ses and only one 2B, and neither 9S is inclined to share her.
