An underperforming mech pilot has a crush on her mysterious squadmate

Review from June 2026
So this is a nice little story about a little romance between two pilots, one of which is a cyborg. It's cute and it's awkward and it's got interesting things to say. I really appreciated reading the interactions between the two and the investigation of bodies and how connected we are to them and how they define us and how they don't. Maybe give this one a look if any of that sounds interesting.
