Who Wants To Be Human Anyway?
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. No one had ever heard Hugo scream for his entire life - regardless of his present situation tumbling through space from an airlock. Humanity had never bothered to hear him: not when marching for robot rights centuries before and certainly not since androids, like Hugo, had become passe. Everything was genetically engineered now. It was so much cheaper and comprehensible to make a workforce biologically. Living things were far easier to control. The genetic engineers could inhibit certain behaviors, select for desirable emergent traits, and the raw materials involved were so much easier to repair and replace.
