There aren't major symbols that pop out throughout the story but certain themes and references towards science fiction and the admiration for AI. There's also the idea of the classic internal struggle of the self ("Who am I, what am I..") feel throughout the story. Incognito is struggling to figure out who he really is and we find ourselves rolling this journey of a man versus himself.
2. What connections did you with the story? Discuss the elements of the work with which you were able to connect.
I am geeky for anything sci-fi or superhero related and this story definitely reminded me of that. I feel like the story in general is just easy to relate to-- referencing the relationship aspect which, to an extent, is something everyone has experienced at some point of their life. The silly disagreements, the idea of hiding something, or even the fact that we sometimes need space is enough to connect. Being completely open and honest is hard, but it doesn't mean we don't love the other any less.
The writing was fun to read-- the comical aspect kept the story fresh and easy to appreciate.
3. What changes would you make to adapt this story into another medium? What medium would you use? What changes would you make?
I think it would be really interesting to see this as a tv show. Perhaps a mini-series would be fun showcasing the situations that they get themselves into. Having a mini-series at one hour long episodes each would be interesting and fun to watch-- especially with characters like these! Maybe even a comic book could work out well. Of course, the writing would have to be worded though to something a little simpler to digest but regardless, it would definitely be a fun read.
