A Nano-Personhood Love story (short sci-fi)
Their love was immortal, their union absolute
He was rich; she just had an accident, devastating
Medical technology offered a breakthrough solution
He was open minded, she was unconscious
He decided for her lawfully, he signed the documents
Nanobots were introduced into her bloodstream
He was perplexed, watching her body (trying to)rebuild itself
He wasn’t young anymore, neither was she.
The bots reached her neo-cortex, she reached across the divide

He was asleep near the nano-rejuv incubator
She accessed across the abyss of meat space
A swarm of identity laden Nanobots took shape
Inside him, she was rearranging his organs
To meet her new needs
She didn’t wish to disturb him, she felt only warmth
He woke up, and the feeling of loneliness disappeared
They were two
Now they are one
The person, Daniel Marianne Wolf Hunt was thus proclaimed to be the first double person in existence, so as we said before:
Their love was immortal, their union absolute.
