¨###¨¨¨¨¨# 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. ¨##¨¨¨¨¨#¨
