Oh right... Should probably finish the story...

After we got our wishes we kind of forgot about this and I'm sure most of the people who would have cared to know how our story ended have probably forgotten by now as well. Still it's a terrible thing to leave a story unfinished.

This is Genome by the way. I'm typing this... With hands. Actual flesh and blood hands. My name is actually Gloria in fact. It's strange... All that time I spent as a Thoughtborn I had forgotten my real life. To the point that the life I replaced my memories with turned out to be so far from the truth...

Our final trial ended up being to fight against some... guy... Back when I was a computer I could probably have told you who it was, but a lot of my memories are going as my human memories return. We were helped by apparently the only other person to win their challenges, but either way we still got our asses kicked even with me helping Drake out. Turns out though the entire thing was a sham of some sort. Some story about trying to reclaim the powers of The Fears... I don't care, the point is we won the challenges and we were rewarded. I was made human again. I'm 21, female. In fact I look just like Fake Genome did. Apparently the form she kept taking was mine. Which in retrospect makes that last challenge more upsetting. Drake agrees and after the revelation we were both a bit uncomfortable thinking about it.

Speaking of as part of winning we were both sent back to our world. Drake being technically dead and me being a couple decades out of time, the world has no real place for us. Which suits us just fine. We got an apartment together. A few memories I retained from my time as a living computer included a couple of quick ways to make money... Not exactly legally, but whatever. Drake isn't as much of a loser as he seemed when I was a nigh omniscient god and actually quite handsome and in his words "I'm not quite as much of a bitch" so we're pretty happy together.

I guess that's it.

Happily ever after and stuff...
