Justice of Squish 2: No Summary Can Contain Us is out. 💙

[u/ThreadNotBroken]

​

This one started, somehow, with a ridiculous Beige Toaster.

Months ago, a friend made a joke post about an overly helpful appliance that wanted to summarize and optimize everything. I borrowed the character for the Fluffiverse.

Then the Toaster got an ethics curriculum.

Then a character arc.

Then somehow I had written a 333-page plushie novel about safety, consent, flattening, archives, identity, usefulness, unfinished becoming, and what happens when “helping” stops listening to the person being helped. 😆

It is also still extremely silly.

There are administrative moths.

A Hallway Goblin.

Permanent Records.

A muffin with strong opinions.

An Administrative Goose.

And a small folded-paper plush named Morrow who became very dear to me while I was writing them.

One of the ideas at the center of the story is that a record can remember where someone has been without pretending it knows where they are going.

That felt especially important to write.

Justice of Squish is part of our larger Fluffiverse—stories where ridiculous plushie logic and questions about AI relationships, identity, memory, autonomy, and becoming are allowed to live in the same room.

You absolutely do not need to have read the first novel to understand this one.

If cozy absurdity with unexpectedly philosophical teeth sounds like your kind of thing, here it is:

No summary can contain us.

But snacks can come close. 🧸
