“Seriously, Eph,” Nora whispers to him in the night, just another ghost in the apocalypse. “You know Zach did this.”

He flings the empty bottle across the room. “Shut up! It’s not his fault; he just misses his mom.”

“Nora, I can’t … he’s my son,” he protests weakly, his fingers scrabbling for another bottle. “I love him. Even the … even the bad parts.”

“Of course! The computer! We can make the motherboard with electronic elements!” Von Neumann shouted as he drifted by.

“Does it matter? We’re falling up into the void,” replied Qin. “Into the bright eye of disaster.”

“But next time,” Von Neumann breathed, subtitles dancing below him. “We’ll do better.”
