Nice. “Her” dialogue, the last paragraph of it, strikes me as a little flat or wooden, but I can’t put my finger on exactly why. It could be that “I don’t want to think about the alternative… I like being able to explain my world” is just a bit too on-the-nose, to precisely introspective, to ring true to what I believed about “her” state of mind at the time. Great ending and overall concept, though.
