For a brief moment, things look just as they were. Three siblings sit in a bedroom together, talking about the future. But the fate of Cair Mallplex, a real reunion, and the very possibility of tomorrow all rests on Valeria’s shoulders. The moon sits on the horizon. Mum’s the word. Featuring pirate puns, a voided warranty, and the return of cassette tapes.

Trigger warnings for references to violence, family death, grief throughout. Discussion of surveillance, mention of police brutality and imprisonment. Discussion of identity/stolen identity. Brief discussion of police brutality. Discussion of mortality and bombs. Brief mention of gender dysphoria.
