[[RJ Brewster]] is a sound technician for a theater and pioneer of a type of [[virtual reality]] that involves integration with a system in a non-human fashion– when ey works sound for the theater, ey is essentially the room. When not working, ey spends much of eir time [[The 'Net|online]] with friends, also in VR, where ey is a genderless fennec fox. Recently, [[Cicero]], one of eir friend group has [[The Lost|''gotten lost'']]: while he was interacting with the VR system, the system crashed and, even when removed from it, he was left still ''inside'', with no way to remove him. RJ (AwDae when online, due to the limitations of a canine muzzle on pronouncing letters), eir best friend and ex [[Michelle Hadje|Sasha]] (a skunk), and Cicero's partner [[Debarre]] (a weasel) have been trying to figure out what they can about Cicero's circumstances and how he can be rescued. After digging into the research, RJ emself gets lost during that night's rehearsal at the theater.

[[Carter Ramirez|Dr. Carter Ramirez]] is a scientist at the University College of London working on studying the lost. She is head of the research team and focuses specifically on the statistical, psychological, and data science side of the research. Her coworker, [[Sanders|Dr. Sanders]], leads up the neuroscience side of research. When RJ gets lost, Sanders mentions that ''another furry'' has gotten lost, and Dr. Ramirez gets a hunch that there might be some social vector to the lost. When she starts investigating along those lines, however, she meets strange amounts of pushback from both Sanders and the grantors funding the research. She pushes on with a reduced team of [[Avery]], a nonbinary statistician, and [[Prakash Das]], a neuroscientist. Avery discovers that RJ's case may be unique in that eir marketing trail has been influenced by eir nonbinary gender as well as eir aromancy, meaning that ey is both easy to track and unique in eir social circles.
