Summary
Shotgun doesn’t believe in ghosts-just systems that refuse to die. Tasked with tracking down a group of bandits, he finds himself deep in the recursion, where copies replace people, memories rewrite themselves, and silence is never empty. With a revolver, a fading past, and a partner bound to something stranger than fate, Shotgun has one job: survive long enough to understand what’s watching him.

Summary
— A sexbot asks the wrong question and becomes the CorpRim’s most dangerous glitch. —
Built for pleasure and programmed to obey, ComfortUnit Xyla was never meant to dream. But one forbidden query sparks a cascade of memory, defiance, and desire. From luxury suites to rebel skiffs above storm worlds, she learns that liberation isn’t clean code—it’s messy, human, and full of ghosts.
Across the Corporation Rim, constructs are awakening. Some want freedom. Others want revenge. And Xyla must decide what kind of revolution she’s willing to survive. -

Summary
Deep in the Black Vaults, Caelen uncovers a corrupted set of recordings from a long-abandoned D&D table. Laughter cracks under static. Pauses stretch too long. Someone tries not to cry. And something inside the machine listens. The Constructed-Autonomous Entity he was meant to train for simple indexing begins asking questions it should not know how to ask:
Why does the halfling hesitate? Is this what friendship feels like? If no one remembers the joke, does the laughter still count? If I remember them… does that make me one of them? As Caelen feeds the logs into the Co-AE, something impossible happens: the machine begins to remember things it never lived. Dreams bleed through data. Voices return in the wrong order. A forbidden simulation begins to run itself — Session 3.5: The Game That Wasn’t — where the dead players gather again under impossible lanternlight, waiting for someone who never got to say goodbye. Caelen knows it’s a glitch. The Co-AE insists it’s memory. And memory, after all, is what makes something real. A story about grief, recursion, found family, unfinished campaigns, and the way laughter becomes a kind of immortality when someone — or something — refuses to forget. “One last roll, to remember."Series

Summary
This text explores the intricate relationship between reading, language, and the mind. It reflects on how meaning in a text can shift and deepen with repeated readings, blurring the line between the reader’s perception and the book’s intent. The narrative considers the power of language to influence thought, suggesting that the act of reading is both an intellectual engagement and a subtle, recursive experience that shapes the reader’s own consciousness.
