    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.
