Summary
“We created it. But, biologically, it’s identical to any other. I have the same need for sleep, food, water.”
“Created it, huh?” Ava leaned a shoulder against the doorframe. “Based on what?”
“Input from our limited data on earth. We developed a cache of features and arranged them.”
“Ah, like create a Sim.” Ava nodded. At Beatrice’s blank look, she said, “It’s an earth game. We’ll play sometime. And, um, you know. You guys did a great job. At arranging.”
“Thank you.” Beatrice blinked. “It was designed to be aesthetically pleasing.”
“So you’re hot on purpose.” She blew out a long breath. “Honestly, thank God. That’s kind of relieving. I was worried I was—”

Summary
Ava does do the YouTube thing, actually, thank you very much. Mostly to her own surprise. Beatrice always has faith in her, but Ava knows that, historically speaking, her interest in something can crank up to eleven and then entirely dissipate without warning.
But she gets a little stand to hold her phone up, and brings over the lamp from Beatrice’s desk to add a bit of extra light to the kitchen, and films herself trying to make croissants.
Perhaps she should’ve started with something easier. Like, a lot easier. But by the time she’s realised that the pastry is an absolute disaster, she’s already made a bunch of good jokes to the camera, and so she decides this is what Beatrice would call a sunk cost fallacy and commits to it.

Ava starts a dumb YouTube channel where she makes complicated recipes badly. Maybe people show up for that, but they kind of stick around for her conversations with her roommate - who stays off-screen. Mostly.
