But... this is the whole premise behind the Matrix. That everything about
the Matrix is fake. In XStylus' fic, Trinity is trying to get Akane to
realize her family is anything but that. You see a similar scene in "The
Matrix", when Morpheus is showing Neo the truth about the Matrix, after he's
been freed from it. Neo emphatically tells Morpheus that what he's saying
is impossible, continually denying it, and finally demands to be taken out
of the construct. With Neo, it's the whole world. With Akane, it's her
family.
So?
The world they live in may be fake. The relationships between them are not,
even if they live in a fake world.
