It seems like Titus tries really hard to comfort Violet, but I think he’s
trying to comfort himself. By getting the reassurance from Violet that it is
because of the feed that she ‘freaked out’ and maybe if he says ‘it’s because
of the Feed’ enough times, then he thinks he’ll truly believe it.

‘With a hologram, like when your teacher is one of them, if you aren’t looking
right at them, they sometimes seem to be hollow.’

It is true that holograms aren’t always crystal clear and you need the
perfect lighting to clearly see them, but I thought in the future they would’ve
fixed this problem by then. The hologram represents how hollow everybody is,
the technology can be taking over, but the real person (teacher) is still
better.

‘Unfortunately FeedTech and other investors reviewed your purchasing
history, and we don’t fell that you would be a reliable investment at this
time.’

Wow. Someone’s life will end without this dire need of feed repair and
no body, not one corporation, want’s to repair Violet’s feed all because of
her purchasing history. It is a life or death situation and Violet is about
to die, but nobody will help because they won’t get anything out of it. Today
in our world many things are like that, but I know/hope that none are to this
extreme.

‘She looked at me and smiled, and said “My hero.”
I didn’t want to be called her hero.’

After all this time Violet still thinks she developed a true
relationship with Titus, one which can sustain hard moments like this, but
Titus he hasn’t tried that much anymore after Violet stopped being ‘new’.
When she called him her hero, of course, Titus must’ve been bombarded with
guilt for being her hero, when he’s such a poor one to the least.

‘I cried, sitting by her bed, and I told her the story of us…They learn
to resist the feed.’

Titus does really love her. He misses all the moments they’ve had, the
love story and the ‘crazy escapades’, but will he just move on or will he
continue to resist the feed?
