    Summary

    Hal finds himself stranded aboard a certain meteor, impact-bound for Houston, Texas circa 1995. And everything spirals out from there.

    Because sometimes, when a system seems to be just short of defunct, all that is required is to take a step back and reevaluate the materials at hand and redistribute your available resources.

    And so, with birth comes a countdown on a cycle that begins as it ends: In the red.

    Summary

    Way back in the days of Trinity Chassis, Titans didn't get sick, because they didn't have the programming complexity to allow for that.

    They also didn't grieve over dead Pilots.

    BT-7274 is not a Trinity Chassis, and Vanguards do most certainly grieve.

    Summary

    Four months after Harry Du Bois obliterated his memory in Martinaise, Jean Vicquemare finds himself on another downward spiral into another deep depression. He's only hanging on each day by a quickly fraying thread. It's only a matter of time until it snaps, and when it does, he knows there will be no one there to grab his hand and keep him from falling into total oblivion.

    Summary

    During the events of THE HANGED MAN case was another investigation, one that wont end up with a report filed away in the RCM archives, but one they all need to work out in their ledgers anyway. One detective has named it THE MYSTERIOUS DISCO DETECTIVE. Which, frankly, is a garbage title but at least wouldn’t have looked out of place with Dick Mullen’s name attached. The patrol officer calls it HIS WAYWARD MEMORY. Poetic. But what kind of case name is that?

    Jean on the other hand simply calls this case WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED? Scrawling out the capital letters in his notebook helps steady his shaking hand for just a moment.

    An exploration of Jean during the events of the game, filling in the blanks of the information that Harry’s skills give us in game (especially Esprit De Corps, Shivers, Empathy, etc)

    Absolutely heartbreaking, i love it! Very well written, everyone feels in character. Really adds depth to Harry and Jean's relationship.

    Summary

    Tucking his arms behind his back, Kim leans over the rat, only a little weary and frustrated. It is quite cute, with its twitching nose and little hands. He distantly wonders if there's another rat around somewhere.

    TRIVIA – After all, rats are social creatures, much like humans.

    SACRE COEUR – They get terribly depressed without a friend.

    "Hello, cher petit rattie. Do you know where the detective from the 41st is?"

    Look at him, talking to a rat of all things-

    ["Is that me? Are you looking for me?"]

    Kim jumps, suddenly hearing a voice, as if it is speaking to him directly inside his mind. Deep, raspy, like whoever it was had been smoking a pack a day. A bit of a Messinian accent. Kim looks around the room, but there isn't anyone else, just the rat.

    He stands up on his hind legs, sniffing the air. ["Um, down here."]

    No. No way. "Erm... Petit rattie?"

    ["Yes! That's me!"]

    "You're... You are a rat."

    ["I'm aware. But I'm also a police officer. I think?"]

    Kim sighs, pinching the bridge of his nose. "It's the stress, I'm finally losing it..."

    -

    AU where, for some reason, Harry du Bois is a rat.
