<p>Hanne sat at the dining room table, coffee in her hands, staring out at nothing, a sure sign that she was digging through something on the perisystem architecture. Probably poking her way through the feeds, looking for news of her own. She had her own friends, after all, her own circle of co-hobbyists, those who shared her interest in creating various objects and constructs. She had her own people to care about that weren&rsquo;t just me, weren&rsquo;t just the Marshans.</p>
<p>I chose instead to make myself another coffee, letting a cone of silence linger above me so that I didn&rsquo;t disturb her, even though her eyes do flick up toward me once or twice, joined by a weak smile.</p>
<p>&ldquo;Want some space?&rdquo; I asked once a new pot of coffee sits in the center of the table.</p>
<p>&ldquo;Kind of, yeah,&rdquo; she said, voice dull. &ldquo;Janine isn&rsquo;t responding. She&rsquo;s <em>there,</em> but not responding. Shu is gone though. Just&hellip;&rdquo; A sniffle. &ldquo;Completely gone. It&rsquo;s like she was never even there in the first place.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Kind of, yeah,&rdquo; she said, voice dull. &ldquo;Jess isn&rsquo;t responding. She&rsquo;s <em>there,</em> but not responding. Shu is gone though. Just&hellip;&rdquo; A sniffle. &ldquo;Completely gone. It&rsquo;s like she was never even there in the first place.&rdquo;</p>
<p>I felt my expression fall. It was bound to happen, I figured; we know enough people that if, as Dry Grass had said, millions had already been reported missing, Marsh wouldn&rsquo;t be the only one.</p>
<p>I reached forward to pat the back of her hand, which she tolerated for a moment before lifting it out of the way.</p>
<p>&ldquo;I&rsquo;m sorry, Hanne,&rdquo; I said. &ldquo;I know you liked them.&rdquo;</p>

<p>&ldquo;Not that she mentioned, no.&rdquo;</p>
