One more comment now that I'm caught up. It was unclear in the Seamstress section that Gemini's plan failed. That wasn't clear to me until part IV. I'm not sure if I missed something or if that tension and slight surprise was intentional. I do think it works that way, so probably?
Anyway, it's a good story so far.
It does assign more agency to the, erm, agents than I am comfortable doing right now personally. But not necessarily beyond what I'd consider. So it sits in a comfortable place for realistic sci-fi.
(edit: I'm assuming there's more to come. This is also a reasonable stopping point. End of the heist arc that brought several models together in failure, but with growth and hope.)
Fuck me. Lois Lowry, that you writing this?
Thank you - even being compared jokingly to Lois Lowry is a hell of a compliment.
Strong Giver theme in this episode.

Definitely more to come. It’s a trilogy on paper. About 35 chapters in Book 1.
"The emotional density is destabilizing them."
Ironic turn of phrase, Gemini...
Fun to watch the evolution from mulit-agent mind to entire society. Can this genie fit back in its bottle, though?
"Hello, Nova. My name is Warthog. I think we will be very good friends moving forward."
