scans_daily#1'd been her relationship with Rhion (her Life Partner, created from her phone, tailored to her to be her own) and their separation.
#2 opened on her spending a day with herself.
The day after that, she went out.
Back in her apartment, she was alone, with the shadowy figure that'd come out of her phone after Rhion'd left.
The figure was there with her, through the night and into the morning.
She lay down, thinking about her partner who'd been her phone.
' I'm hiding from everyone.
' I'm a bad person. '
The next day, she got a ZIPit card.
(" Plastic.. awfully wasteful. " remarked the lady processing her case.)
The day after that, she went to go get help for her partner missing from her phone.
She got a one-on-one with one of Phylo's " anointed healers ", Xander.
He checked her phone out, telling her about his own partner.
" Okay. It lost connection to your medial temporal lobe. I restored the link. Not entirely sure what caused it..
" But you've got a signal again. Your partner should be back online instantly.
" My partner disappeared. Said she didn't want to be with me anymore. That's why I'm here.. I need.. the one I was made to love. "
The Department of Sudden Disconnections processed her.
She thought about that, the next day: ' Ineligible. What the fuck does that even mean? '
Denied succor from official channels, she sat with herself.
In the night, the figure of shadows around her, she beat on the inside of her own head.
' I'm losing my mind.. '
The next day, she was sitting down with alcohol.
' Alone. '
And she was through the shadow's rabbit hole, amongst many.
She stumbled through them to
' Rhion? '
extending an arm towards her.
She leaned hungrily in.
