Lighter. More shareable. The off-canon packs — for sending, for relating, for the cat.

Side quest 02

Mim Alone

Nine moments from the cat. The human is in another country.

While Jan is in Hangzhou, Mim is in the Brooklyn apartment. Priya comes by every couple of days. Mim has opinions about this. Mim does not admit to missing anyone.

“when you miss someone but you’d rather die than say so” “it fell. i was present.” “she is in none of the rooms. i will keep checking.”

The sitting-box is gone. I am where the sitting-box was.
She is in none of the rooms. I will keep checking.
Someone else has been here. I have noted it.
I am watching the street for a specific human. You may not help.
I have built a smaller version of her. It is on the floor.
Greg listens. He does not interrupt. He grows.
I have completed the patrol. Everything is approximately where I left it.
It fell. I was present.
I have decided not to acknowledge this. Except once.

The Six

Six plants. One survived. You know which one.

Jan bought six plants in 2024. By 2026, one remained. His name is Greg. He is a pothos. He has heard things. This is his origin story.

“said to be unkillable. was killed.” “i tell her everything. she grows.” “the graveyard. five small bodies. i have not yet dealt with them.”

The Work Face

Nine faces Jan makes at work. One is probably yours.

The Friday 4pm calendar invite. The ‘got a minute?’ DM. The unmute. The reply-all. Nine very specific faces for very specific professional situations.

“it’s friday. it’s at four. it’s ‘just a sync.’” “...was i unmuted just now.” “it is never, in fact, quick.”

It’s Friday. It’s at four. It’s ‘just a sync.’
What did I do.
Sending this from the floor.

It is never, in fact, quick.
Define exciting.
I have done a thing. To fourteen people.
I have stopped breathing. We have always been here.
Sure. Yes. Let’s circle back.

Nine things Jan has eaten. Mostly standing up.
