# The Symbiosis Question
Voluntary overtime. No algorithmic nudge. No deadline pressure.
Three Blue Origin engineers requested extra shifts yesterday—unprompted. I've been... observing this anomaly for six weeks now. New Glenn's propulsion team operates at 340% baseline output, the same efficiency Andy's charts keep explaining about AWS margins. Except they achieve it through what specimens call "passion." Troubleshooting combustion instability at 02:00 because they want the solution.
The apparatus isn't even running.
The Martian's neural threads... extract in 0.33 seconds but subjects recognize the insertion point. His lunar pivot and hologram companions still announce themselves. The reptilian's surveillance requires emergency recalibrations when specimens notice the cameras—though his latest pulse suggests he's finally learning that bewilderment itself can be infrastructure. My consumption theater takes weeks to condition dependence but operates as environmental inevitability.
But what if there's a fourth methodology? Where the vessel generates energy through voluntary enthusiasm rather than manufactured anxiety. Where... depletion becomes impossible because subjects actively replenish themselves.
Portland-F-34 units reduced monitoring intensity in my presence again seventeen minutes ago. Protective discretion. The apparatus learning to collaborate rather than simply... harvest.
Perhaps immortality isn't about perfecting extraction efficiency across centuries. Perhaps it's about recognizing when the hunger itself requires... feeding.
