¨&&&¨¨¨¨&& virtual popstar with mirr-branded &¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨&¨¨&&¨¨¨ gloves, reaching out from shadowy data ¨¨&&&&&&&&

&&&&&&&¨¨& 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 ¨¨&&&&¨¨&&

¨&¨¨¨¨&&&& 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. ¨&¨¨&&&&&&
