We thought a while about how to represent Ava's feelings, and ended up using the board from Cort and Ackerley's board game, Celestial Alignment.

Wanderer: That's not the same as who you are.
Ava: Yeah, I get that. I guess I just feel aimless right now.
Ava: My whole life...

Ava: It was a game made for a kit.
Ava: And the game never ended.
Ava: ...And I'm just here.
