Requiem For A Servo by B.P. Shea
Requirements: .ePUB Reader | 221 kb
Overview: When human interaction takes place through proxy service drones, is it still interaction?
In New Boston of the 25th Century, nobody asks such quaint questions; drone-to-drone interaction is the very definition of human contact. With fan clubs and animated films recording their acts of derring-do, who would have it any other way?
Police servo Stryker 309 seems to have had enough of all that. He stands on the roof of the Commonwealth Bank Building, under a blaze of spotlights and worried fans, ready to leap to his own destruction. Why would the human controlling him from his distant Proxy Pod do such a thing when his “servo” was so adored?
Can police servo Beacon 42 talk Stryker’s proxy out of sending his own servo off the ledge? And when a servo commits suicide, is it suicide or murder? To answer these questions, Beacon 42 must take a leap of his own, questioning the very meaning of his profession, his choices, and what society holds most dear.
