Veriluxx RealPet Companions

Donut’s new sponsor and the source of her lifelong dream: merch. A budget toy company that makes “nearly-indestructible” licensed RealPet Companion dolls of crawlers, no implant certificate required: “for the children.” Loita books Donut, Carl, and Mongo onto an infomercial to review a “product sample,” which arrives as a defective robot Donut whose onboard AI is mixed with Garfield (“I sure do like lasagna”) and glitches into cosmic dread. Mongo decapitates it on sight. Donut is torn between rage at the shoddy product and ecstasy that she finally has merch.
