    virtual popstar with mirr-branded     
 gloves,  reaching  out from shadowy data 
 centeres,  with  a  sly  grin. she  will 
 take   your   hand   if   you  let  her. 
           she will not let go.           
                                          
 but before any of  this is possible, you 
 must  earn some  personal  time together 
 with the world's most famous influencer! 
                                          
                                      
  
                                      
                                          
 most people are  aware that she's a mirr 
  company product, though their relation  
 is  somewhat  unclear.   there  is  avid 
 speculation into  who's  her actor, many 
 believing  there to  me more  than  one. 
 what   they   don't    know    is   that 
          featherbite is an ai.           
                                          
     years of relentless training, of     
 grinding  test  audiences  to dust,  and 
 here  is  now  this  program  running on 
 mirr's supercluster, trained to  amass a 
  dedicated and affectable audience. her  
        appearance, her voice, her        
  mannierisms... are weapons, pointed at  
    the public, instilling addiction,     
         dependence, and loyalty.         
                                          
                                      
  
                                      
                                          
  featherbite's social media accounts are 
     constantly pushing for donations,    
 recommending  her to  friends,  or other 
 contributions. at the center  of this is 
 an  official  fanclub,  operating  on  a 
     system of reward and punishment.     
                                          
 those  who play  along will  be rewarded 
 with larger perks, while  those  who are 
      uncooperative or try to expose      
 featherbite will  be  punished.  due  to 
 the  addictive  nature  of  exposure  to 
   featherbite, being denied access at    
 this   stage  often  leads   to  painful 
 withdrawal. just  the  threat  of it  is 
                effective.
