Ailice. Alice. A thousand Alices. A character repeatedly tormented by a thing called “machine learning”—sometimes a cosplayer, sometimes a cosplayer of a cosplayer. She walks through short stories, disconnected yet repeating, like she’s been kicked from behind into another comic… and another… and another. Is she being watched? Does she like it? Does she even know? Maybe one day, she’ll walk out of the frame.
