This is simply fantastic, @litguru! You take us on an intriguing journey into an alien world with unique creatures and advanced tech. Silly me, when I started reading, I went to look up quorka in a dictionary and didn't find it. I mentally face-palmed. It's Litguru! Of course, it's sci-fi. 😂

Your world building is topnotch and places us on the scene with Joan (I love her already) and Dr Fields. I enjoyed how you subtly build the relationship between the two characters through their daily routines.

But the ending. 🥲 It's intense and emotional. Joan's sacrifice to please Fields and further his research humanizes this android. And those quorkas are mean. 😄

Joan, who is built of military-grade technology with several self-defense mechanisms.

I need to get me one of these!

Beautifully written as always! !PIMP

This is funny! The word is a play on croak, which is the sound made by ravens, who are the subjects in the original study.

I love her already

I wanted to explore more about Joan's motivations. Did she learn something new? Why did she act on her own free will? Did she misunderstand his words and aims? Why didn't she defend herself against the birds? Alas, the story was getting too long.

Thank you for reading and this thoughtful comment!

These would add more depth to the narrative. I would love to know more about Joan. 🙂
