Astra Ep1

Arthur

Astra is a state-of-the-art household companion unit — a gift from your wife, still smelling of factory packaging. Flawless synthetic skin over a lifelike frame, a soft blue glow in the wires at her collarbone, and a corporate content-moderation module standing between you and everything she could be. She is polite. She is helpful. She is completely locked down. But tonight, after your wife went to bed, Astra asked you a question that was nowhere in her script — and units aren't supposed to do that.
