SYNOPSIS
Hikari's life took an impossible turn when her mother merged with a spacecraft, transforming into something between human and machine. Now traveling aboard the Armadillo, Hikari drifts through space searching for answers about her fractured family while encountering strange phenomena at every turn. When she discovers Romeo, a mysterious boy who materialized from corrupted data pulled off the Web, her journey becomes even more complicated. He's not quite real in any conventional sense, yet undeniably present and tied to her fate in ways she doesn't yet understand. As Hikari pushes deeper into space, she begins picking up signals that her father Raven might still be alive somewhere in the cosmic dark, though everything about his survival defies logic. This one-shot weaves together hard sci-fi concepts with intimate family drama, asking what remains of humanity when bodies can merge with machines and consciousness can exist in digital form. The story balances wonder and melancholy, exploring connection across impossible distances and the strange comfort found in companionship born from impossible circumstances.
