We lingered in silence for the remainder of the evening, the four of us piled into a bed now stretched to fit all of us. Two of my cocladists and their partner, and now me. Who knew what I was? There was the friendship that we had built over the last few days. There was the camaraderie that we had built through work. There was the acquaintanceship that had been there from years prior.
And now there was more. I didn't have words for it — latent romance? A crush? — and Dry Grass was asleep for much of our time together.

Some hunted down doctors who had uploaded and were willing to do things like help act out the process. I mostly just forked once a month from that cis body into what I am bit by bit. I let my voice change, bound my chest, added surgery scars, each bit step by step.''

``That's wild,'' she said. ``What's this got to do with Marsh, though? Feeling maudlin over gender?''
