Copy/Paste was a The Lucy Wilson Mysteries short story released by Candy Jar Books freely on their website because of the Coronavirus isolation of 2020.
Publisher's summary
It's 2020 and Lucy Wilson is stuck at home, locked down with her family and feeling glum. She's used to being the hero, but this particular type of heroism is hard and slow. Luckily, her friend Hobo is just a few clicks away. Isn't modern technology amazing?
But why does the video keep glitching? Who's that smiling with Lucy's face? And can she really save the world when she can't even leave her house?

Story notes
- Although many short stories were released online during the COVID-19 pandemic, this was the first one to explicitly take place during the actual pandemic, as well as the first to reference the virus itself (albeit indirectly).
- The releases themselves are referenced as well, noting, "Her favourite shows and writers were releasing special free content to keep their fans upbeat and excited, and they could all share that excitement online".
- Released in the same document was File #161229. This wiki considers it to be a separate story.
Continuity
- Lucy has invited more people into the Whoosh! group chat, including alien hunters from Cardiff (TV: Everything Changes, et al.) and people from Ealing who protected the Earth when they were Lucy and Hobo's age. (TV: Invasion of the Bane, WC: Farewell, Sarah Jane)
