heyo,
im trying to remember the name of a short story i read about three years ago online.
A girl was sent by her bible thumping parents in to an… AI controlled prison. the AI explains how this is permanent, but they are studying humans.
Its explained how the coffin sized room can simulate any situation, and over time she realizes that she can request drones be sent to real planets, and these drones can have humans forms.
At the end, she has a drone sent to her parents, in the form of a rough looking man, saying their daughter is coming home.
sadly not, theres no romantic sub plots, and its all from the POV of the girl thats in the AI support coffin.
Sounds interesting!
