<p>I woke, exhausted, to a cup of coffee steaming on the bedside table.</p>
<p>At some point while I&rsquo;d slept, Hanne had once more split the bed into two separate mattresses and very gently instructed the sim to slide them a few feet away from each other. Perhaps I&rsquo;d been tossing and turning, or maybe I&rsquo;d been snoring. I promised myself I&rsquo;d ask later, then promptly forgot about it in favor of the coffee mug waiting for me.</p>
<p>Coffee and chicory, nearly a third milk by volume. Perfect.</p>
<p>I was two sips in when the weight of what happened hit me once again. I don&rsquo;t quite know how it was that it had escaped me, and a pile of &lsquo;how could&rsquo; questions started to hem me in again — how could I possibly forget, when this is the biggest thing that has happened to our clade ever? Never mind sys-side or phys-side; ever.</p>

<p>No, I needed to stop thinking like that.</p>
<p>I forced myself to sit up in bed and drink my coffee. My goal was to sip it until it was finished. I stared out the window for a bit. I cried for a bit. I drank about half my coffee before the wait becomes unbearable.</p>
<p>Five minutes. Hah.</p>
