Short-Story filter: 3d meat, surprise printed in the bone
May 28, 2020 7:40 PM Subscribe
What I remember: Short story, cyberpunk shadowrun-y sort of setting. Main character illicitly 3d-prints luxury meat and sells it black-market. She? gets blackmailed by a local businessman who wants forged meat for his child?'s wedding. Something fell through and he can't get grown-meat (but needs the prestige of grown-meat), so he threatens her to attempt a near-impossible printing task.
Final twist, as she? escapes it's revealed that something embarrassing was printed on each of the bones delivered to the wedding.
Response by poster: Got it in one, in one hour. Magnificent. I was thinking Fireside Magazine, I should've thought Clarkesworld.
