Soft Shell
The Yolk: a conscripted pilot in a time of war, fearful and tired.  The Shell: a battlemachine rapidly developing a mind of its own.  The bond: refusing to be separated by conflict, by authority, by doubt, by fear.  Soft Shell is a two-player game of discovery and vulnerability, borrowing from DC's plot ARMOR.
