Summary
“Perihelion!” she whispered urgently, “What’s happening to SecUnit?”
“There is no need to worry, Dr Mensah,” Perihelion replied, “SecUnit has gone into an involuntary stasis sequence.” Its voice was calm and reassuring, though there was some other emotion underneath that Mensah couldn’t quite identify.

Summary
Jon wakes up to a knock on his door. He's not expecting Mike Crew on the other side.
He's definitely not expecting an exhausted Mike Crew who's asking for a favor, but Jon can't find he minds it, either.

This is just shameless fluff and cuddling. A sequel to A Grave Change, although could probably be read on its own.

Summary
“I find you interesting, Mike Crew,” It says eventually.
If he was human, that would likely be incredibly disconcerting to hear.
As it stands, he just says “Right,” and puts his hands in his pockets. Does it expect him to say it back? It probably wants to be found interesting too but he doesn’t care enough to stick his foot out and risk an avatar faux pas.

Summary
Home feels temporary, a sandcastle seconds from washing away in the rising tide. Home is a fairy tale he used to tell Faroe, a lie he told himself, his own carrot, as false and hollow as Kayne’s. Maybe Arthur is a shark, unable to stop, leaving a trail of blood wherever he goes.
—A character exploration of Arthur's relationship to the concept of home, spanning from childhood to post-canon.

Summary
Michael finds itself flung back in time to before Michael Shelley was sacrificed to the Great Twisting. Great! It can fix what happened, right? The spiral-incarnate can make a good simple plan that works, right?
***
In all the years - again, time is such a silly concept - Michael has been the distortion, even pulling memories from before it was Michael and Michael was it, it had never been able to go *backward* in time. It could go forward, it could send people into states of warped time. It could change time as it happened. But it couldn’t reverse it. It could never reverse it.
So then how is it 10 years before when it died?
“No!” It spits out, nearly terrified. Gerry’s eyes go back to the brick wall. “I-“ Michael thinks about its words. “I don’t know why she chose him. He didn’t deserve it. Doesn’t. I… I needed to remind myself that he doesn’t deserve it.”
Michael takes a steadying breath.
“And I need to do something to stop it.”
Gerry is ripe with questions, Michael is sure of it. Gerry always was too curious for his own good.

Summary
Remember that funny bit at the end of episode 3? Where Caine and Zooble switched who was on the therapy couch? What if Caine went into a little more detail than just his thoughts on the wild west.
And by detail I mean Zooble gets answers and its- well, like pulling teeth.
Edit: No longer Zooble interrogating Caine, as I am writing more for this. Now everyone gets to interrogate him. Yay!
Includes: hardware facts! Software jokes! Inaccurate portrayal of AI! Everyone treating the circus like it’s real life while Caine is like HeHe HoHo, I’m a funny silly video game! Don’t worry about the darkness that grows within me, let me tell you about RAM.

“I need to borrow Oscar for a while, if that’s okay with you,” John says. He nods in Oscar’s direction, but his eyes don’t leave Noel’s face. Oscar swallows, and abruptly his mouth is dry. “You’re welcome to join me, of course.”

Summary
“Could you … I mean …” Jon feels heat rising to his face. “Do that again?”
Georgie barks out a laugh, giving him a playful shove. At his expression she stops laughing. “Really?”
“… yeah.” Jon looks down at his arm. The mark is fading fast, it was only a joke after all. He’s been silly.
“Ok. Let’s do this properly then.” Georgie scoots closer to him and takes his face in her hands. “Didn’t think you were the vampire type, Mr. Sims,” she lowers her voice, still teasing, but a little daring now, full of promise.

He wants to do something about it.
And thank fuck, John and Arthur are onboard for that.Series
