Androids (This Magic)

My best friend in high school was an android. Artificial person, actually. She said she preferred that to android. I think android sounds better.

My father was half android. Which makes me, what, a quarter android? Anyway, part of him was human, which explains my existence, and part of him was android, which explains why he couldn’t love my mother. Which explains why they never got along well, which explains why they got a divorce, which explains a lot, really.

This sounds familiar. Am I incorrect in thinking this has to do with the infamous trip to the park?

You would be correct, I think. The whole story is coming together nicely. It is helpful to have such, interesting, I suppose, acquaintances to draw on.
