The text of a short story goes thus: Taking All of Her So then I chopped off her other foot. Then, when she could no longer stand, clinging to me, leaning on me and unable to leave me now for sure, I no longer wanted her. So I went back to the huge furnace in the industrial plant, and I asked it, What can I do with her now, when she is no longer beautiful, when I no longer enjoy watching her even? The furnace said to bring her there and throw her in. Her bones would melt and become part of skyscrapers being built, trucks used to build them and no one would ever blame me. Beneath the text is an ASCII illustration of the remnants of her metallic torso being top-fed into a crucible, out of whose lower portion molten metal pours out and forms new, useful shapes.

Mistigram: this dystopian piece of postcard fiction (describing what is to be done when the novelty of playing with the AI RealDoll wears thin -- unless it is an allegory of course!) and its attached #ASCIIart illustration of a crucible are the handiwork of ldb. They were included in the new science fiction-themed MIST0525 artpack collection.
