The line between human and machine blurs further with each passing day. Christa serves as a corporate spy for Innersoul, one of the leading android manufacturers.

Christa's interactions with androids are as frequent as they are unsettling. The notion of "plastiflesh" and the uncanny stillness of synthetic beings chafe at her senses.

Every day, she navigates a world where loyalty and betrayal intertwine, and where the pressing struggle for authenticity takes more energy than ever.

When an encounter with a representative from Humancopy presents itself, an unexpected path emerges. She steps into a role that blends intrigue and indulgence, creating an environment ripe for discovery.

Her undercover mission unfolds over a meal and subtle conversation. Each moment spent in the company of her rival reveals layers of complexity about both the technology she despises and the beings that inhabit it.

The corporate stakes dig deep into the ethics of innovation and the nature of identity itself in a delicate balance of trust and treachery.

Accompanying this story are two additional short narratives, "Invisible Ink" and "Yet Another Upgrade," each reflecting the intricate lives of machines that mirror humanity.
