CHORALE:
Reuter is a Traveler trained by the Department of Reconstruction to recreate the lives of famous people in the past in order to guarantee a seamless future. Reuter comes from the 23rd century-his latest mission is to become Ludwig van Beethoven. But Reuter has many issues with his assignment, not the least of which are the rank smells and questionable hygiene of early 19th century Vienna. Then again, he's not entirely certain that the key characters in his life, like his Immortal Beloved, aren't fellow Travelers themselves; that they aren't all reenacting the temporal obsessions of the madman Kemper whose theories had created the Department. In fact, when you came right down to it, Reuter isn't sure any of it matters. But try telling that to the supervisors...
GUERNICA NIGHT:
Sid belongs to the Dance cell. Transporters can take them all around the world, but Sid mainly enjoys sex in a vintage Cadillac which he surreptitiously drives out of the city. But at least he's experienced sex. Jagway-as close to Sid as anyone in Dance-hasn't. Then Jag announces to the cell group that he is going to Final Trip, and turns Sid's world inside out. Should he join him? After all, suicide has become the young people's norm, the ultimate solution, one might say, to daily life. The government doesn't approve, of course, particularly with some cells experiencing a 90% FT rate. And the government always knows best. Then the cell leader forces Sid to confront the issue when he makes finding (saving?) Jagway his own personal mission.
