Yours Celestially by Al Hess

After divorce, death, and having his reformatted soul uploaded into a new body, Sasha expected resurrection to be a fresh start. His time spent in digital Limbo with the program's cheeky AI guardian angel, Metatron, was cathartic, but what good is a second life when he only sees his daughter on the weekends, he has all the same problems he had before he died, and he can't seem to shake the ache for the married life he lost?

Mentally preparing myself to part ways with this manuscript, I first stepped away from the jeweler's and wandered towards the pawnbroker, reading as I went. This tale, Confessions of the Fox by Jordy Rosenberg, was enough to occupy my attention all the way to the shop, then sitting outside the shop for some time. Finally I finished the visceral and erotic tale of a street thief and his lover, and reluctantly sold it in exchange for some curative elixirs and travel rations of cheese and jerky. 

I won't be able to just sell stuff from my bag forever, I'll definitely need help to figure this thing out.
