Superior writing advice:

Make your characters FREAKS. Make them DERANGED. Make people think ‘surely this one guy towards the back is normal’ only to reveal FUCK NO. The guy in the back exclusively collects clown paintings (paintings done by professional clowns) and has an irrational hatred of second floors.

I blink blearily and stretch my arms out, pulling him into a cuddle. "Okay, tell me how to make it better," I mumble, still too asleep to register his words.

Your partner rolls over in your bed, looking at you with the most tired eyes you’ve ever seen. “I’m in a time loop.”

ID: a black and white fancomic of the scene in ART’s bathroom from Network Effect. Panel 1: Amena leans forward in the foreground with a curious expression and asks, “Why do you call it ART? It said its name was Perihelion.” She has dark skin, curly chin-length black hair, and is wearing a button up open over a t-shirt. In the background, Ratthi leans against a wall; he has dark skin, short wavy black hair, and is wearing a polo shirt. A shower screen can be seen behind him. Panel 2: Murderbot, leaning its head back against a wall, answers, “It’s an anagram. It stands for Asshole Research Transport.” It has short black hair and mid-tone skin, and is wearing a light-coloured shirt. Panel 3: A front-on view of Amena and Murderbot both sitting on the bathroom vanity, with the sink between them and a large mirror behind them. Amena has her legs crossed and her hands on the benchtop beside her, and says, “That’s not an anagram.” Murderbot is sitting in the corner against the wall, with its boots up on the benchtop as it hugs its jacket to its chest. “Whatever,” it replies. End ID.

ID: Panel 4: Ratthi has a hand to his chin and a thoughtful expression as he says, “Regardless, I think that while you and Perihelion know how to have relationships with humans, neither of you is quite sure how to have a relationship with each other. Panel 5: Murderbot, looking disgusted, asks, “Do you have to call it a relationship?” Panel 6: Ratthi shrugs one shoulder, looking towards Murderbot, and says, “You don’t like the word ‘friendship.’ What else is there?” Panel 7: A close-up of Murderbot’s eyes; it has mechanical irises and is looking up slightly. The text next to it says ‘archive > search > “relationship”,’ followed by an abstract array of rectangles to indicate the search process. It says aloud, “Mutual administrative assistance?” Panel 8: A low angle view from Murderbot’s perspective showing two ceiling lights, the shower screen, and the top half of Ratthi’s confused-looking face in the corner. End ID.

ID: Panel 9: A close-up of the same two ceiling lights. Panel 10: A high angle view of Murderbot and Amena sitting on the bathroom vanity. Murderbot clutches its jacket closer and yells, its expression angry, “I know what you’re doing, ART, stop trying to communicate with me!” Amena is looking up, confused. Panel 11: Ratthi, sighing.

I said, “The Transport doesn’t know what the hell it’s talking about, plus it lies a lot, and it’s mean.” A minute, undetectable in the range of human eyesight, fluctuation in the lights told me ART had heard that.
