Why this must be read: This is the second of three 'canon AUs' I'm doing in a row. In this one, everything in canon happens, with the small adjustment that it's a few centuries in the future and Mark is secretly an android. It's a perfect idea (an android! Of course! that explains it!), wonderfully executed.
A few years after the depositions, Mark's secret is about to be revealed, and he and others close to him are in danger. And those who used to be close to him...
“Then why don’t I see Sean Parker here? Or Erica? Aren’t they your past connections?” shoots off Eduardo, displaying the quick thinking Mark used to like in him, though he doesn’t know why he ever did. It’s irritating and distracting.
It’s too good a point, and one that Mark has acknowledged for awhile. The chances of Eduardo getting embroiled in this when he has been out of Mark’s life for the past four years is less than 5%, similar to Sean and Erica’s chances of being pulled into this. But Mark registers a 5% risk of danger as unacceptably high a chance when paired up with the name Eduardo Saverin, a logic that Mark isn’t able to articulate.
It’s strange to think that Eduardo gets along fairly well with Thiel, the man who suggested the dilution when Sean brought up ‘their problematic CFO’. Mark has to call a truce just to keep the last week relatively amiable. For all that Mark is programmed to be human-like, there are some human logic which will allude him.
It’s not like Thiel is a very interesting, intelligent or attractive man. Why does he get a free pass? Business acumen aside, his intelligence is average, and his conversation is proving to be boring. His face is only 70.31% symmetrical, and he has an unattractive weak chin. Mark also finds his ‘hn, hn’ chuckles annoying. These are things he had never noted before, but he’s certainly noting them now. If he didn’t think Eduardo would get angry, he would show him this list later on.
