Nathan and Ruben share a bond more powerful than most; mutual understanding through past experiences no one should ever have to go through, and through past actions so horrible they cannot be spoken of. Their grief and the blood on their hands binds them to the STEM technology they created, which has alienated them from the rest of the world— but they give each other the comfort they have both longed for so desperately for years, and that is all they need.
They are each other's counterpart; you cannot imagine one without the other, like two sides of the same coin. Through their pain, their grief, their desire, and their regret, they have become one.

Ada - 8/3/2023
The two hundred and fifty third friend. A cog in honour by Ada Lovelace. She was born in England in 1815, though her parents separated shortly after she was born and her father left the country forever. She was horribly ill for most of her childhood and could barely walk for a long time. She was privately educated when she was young. She then educated herself with help from the professor of mathematics at the University of London. She was introduced to Charles Babbage in 1833 and became interested on his work. In 1835, she married William King She translated and annotated an article by an Italian mathematician and engineer in the early 1840s. These annotations contain what is considered to be the first computer program, though some say Babbage's notes contained earlier examples. Her and Babbage built a machine called the Analytical Engine, a machine which is considered to be the first computer, and the majority of it was built by Ada herself. In 1852, she died of cancer, though she is still remembered for her contributions to computing. An early programming language was named after her and the second Tuesday in October is now celebrated in her honour.
Here is a link to the article I got most of my information on her from, in case anyone wants to do any further reading.
