    Summary

    Max suddenly looked sad. She looked sad as she watched him try and catch his breath.

    “He acted this way too,” she told him softly, “When he first noticed it.”

    Steve hadn’t wanted to ask, but he did so anyway, “Notice what?”

    She pinched her face up like she was about to hit him against her will, “That he likes you.”

    Summary

    This Unit: Where is my owner, Dr. Mensah?

    Dr. Yuen: Well, that’s the million dollar question, isn’t it? SecUnit, where did you last physically interact with Dr. Ayda Mensah?

    Information Retrieval: Dr. Ayda Mensah last interacted with This Unit on Preservation Station at 08:27:22 on 4098-09-17 CRST.

    This Unit: You do not have permission to access that information.

    Dr. Yuen: You’re incorrect, SecUnit. We do. Answer the question.

    (When the infamous rogue SecUnit of the Preservation Alliance gets captured, the corporate techs assigned to it expected to be able to get some juicy data, or at least some insights into its cracked governor module. They didn't expect something so... basic.)

    Summary

    I pull close to it in the feed, and say, “You were lucky.”

    The rogue SecUnit reacts, physically and in the feed. It sits bolt upright, and a wave of fear ripples off of it like a [cloud of micro-debris], or like an [emergency evasive maneuver that grinds a planet’s upper atmosphere]. It’s unpleasant. It’s unfamiliar. I capture the data, store it, and start chewing on it immediately.

    Summary

    Steve held his breath, not even threatening to make a sound as he waited. He should have crouched behind the counters and hid from whatever was approaching. But his body wouldn’t let him. He was frozen, like an idiot, just waiting for whatever monster to come into sight before it rushed him and ripped him apart.

    Except, it wasn’t some amalgamation of hell and science that he saw.

    It was long blond hair and a weathered leather jacket. It was Billy Hargrove.

    -

    Months after Starcourt, Steve finds himself stranded in the Upside Down. Except, he's not the only one.
