<p>“If you had to boil down this year into a sales pitch, what would it be?”</p>
|
||||
<p>Reed laughed and bumped his shoulder against Hanne’s. “A sales pitch?”</p>
|
||||
<p>“Yeah,” she said, leaning briefly against him as they walked. “I’m in the market for a new year. Sell me the 2368 model. I’ve got a wide variety to choose from, so tell me why you decided to live through this one.”</p>

<p>“Yeah,” she said, leaning briefly against him as they walked. “I’m in the market for a new year. Sell me the 2406 model. I’ve got a wide variety to choose from, so tell me why you decided to live through this one.”</p>
|
||||
<p>“You’re a nerd. You realize that, right?”</p>
|

<p>“Tell me why I should be a nerd in the year 243. Next year we can decide on 244.“</p>

<p>Reed scuffed his heel against the pavement of the street. New Year’s Eve, and everyone was still inside. Bars: full. Restaurants: packed. There were a few scattered couples or groups around, but they were all walking with purpose. Champagne called. Canapes. Crudites.</p>
|
||||
<p>And here they were, Reed and Hanne, arm in arm, strolling leisurely down the street, heedless of the passersby, to celebrate the last day of 2368, systime 243+365.</p>
|
||||
<p>“If you’re looking for the utmost in luxury, then it’s really hard to go wrong with 2368. The ride was just about as smooth as could be.”</p>

|

<p>“Oh, very comfortable. Cushy, even,” he said, poking himself in the belly.</p>

<p>Hanne laughed. “Cute. How about the exterior?”</p>

<p>He shrugged. “Fine, I guess. The Western Fed was swinging conservative again, it was hot as hell all the time, most places were starting to subsidize uploading despite an already declining population. I guess that makes it sound terrible, and maybe it would have gotten worse, but I wasn’t around to see it. We were doing alright, so maybe I was kind of sheltered.”</p>
|

<p>“I hear you on the hot as hell part. We couldn’t afford moving south when it got too bad, so we moved up into the mountains. It helped a little bit, at least.”</p>

<p>“When was that?”</p>

<p>“2290 something. I don’t remember. I think I was five, at least.”</p>
|

<p>“2330 something. I don’t remember. I think I was under ten, at least.”</p>
|

<p>Reed nodded. “I guess that’s what I mean by sheltered. We were already up in Newfoundland. Summers sucked, winters sucked, but it was alright between them.”</p>
|

<p>“Autumn or spring?”</p>

<p>Dry Grass bowed once more, forked, and the fork stepped from the sim to, ey supposed, go lose herself in the perisystem architecture, hunting down what information she could. They could only hope that she still had the permissions to find what she needed.</p>

<p>“Hey, uh,” Sedge said into the uncomfortable silence that fell once more. “Has anyone checked the time?”</p>

<p>Everyone tilted their heads almost in unison. It was more a habit than anything, not a required motion, but the habit that Marsh had formed so many years ago had stuck with all of the Marshans throughout their own lives.</p>
