xoor opened a panel. it was white again before sunrise.
he sees the timeline. he sees the chaos. sometimes he's in shock. mostly he just signs the papers.

/ chapter 01

no one knows where xoor came from.
he was already there when the bird died. when the logo turned. when the timeline broke at 4 am and everyone was screaming about something they didn't understand.
he watched. he didn't post. he just opened the laptop.
by morning the servers were back. the trends were back. the discourse was back. somebody had to do it.

8.2k listeners. one sentence. xoor unplugged the mic.

scrolled for 11 seconds. closed the app. went to the office.

walking towards the engineers. nobody is fired. nobody is hired.

xoor signs the papers. xoor reads the room. xoor doesn't tweet through it.
