on AO3Why this must be read: It's rare that you come across a story that's so unique and different that it blows your mind away. This is one of those stories. The prompt was post-apocalyptic or cyberpunk detective agency and the author chose to go with both to stunning effect.
Frank Iero is an AI living in a virtual world, the only world he's ever known. He takes great care to present the appearance of a film noir detective, and is more than willing to take on Gerard's missing persons case.
I love how
theladysnarkydame weaves in little details and creates a lush, desperate universe. I would happily read more of the world she's created.
Words would appear on his skin sometimes - phrases written in black marker. They'd disappear in a few minutes, usually. I didn't know if he coded them intentionally, or if they were another glitched out program he'd neglected to erase.
