   Summary

   After Mob kills himself, Verity falls into a deep depression. His new player, Grox, tries to help Verity while also keeping a promise to a certain friend of his. When the AI's mental state becomes more than Grox can handle, he calls the one person that can do something, much to their dismay.

   To make things worse, the company behind Verity has gone bankrupt, having no choice but to abandon their beloved project. Verity finally receives the chance to get the one thing he has desired all its miserable life, but at what cost?

   Verity is given the opportunity to make things right, but it has to choose in what way.

   aka angst slop of verity bc he's my comfort character and i love him, slight vent fic
