Summary
It isn't missing him. This, he acknowledges hesitantly. Tommy's a scientist before he's a son: he can't disprove theories just because he doesn't like them. But he's felt absence before and it wouldn't come in the middle of an autumn night, passed by with several opportunities to visit. It's reserved for late school pick-ups and spilled ice cream trucks, the early breeze of school wind. No, he doesn't miss his father. But he misses pieces of him.

Summary
Gordon never came across as particularly intimidating; he was too frayed at the ends, too high strung and moralistic. Still, he was a trigger happy anxious wreck pumped with adrenaline (natural and artificial), and he was protected from anything and everything with the impenetrable HEV suit keeping him safe from radiation, bootboys, and Benreys.
This time, Gordon didn’t have the HEV suit. All he had were sweatpants (worn by time and fabric softener), and a t-shirt with a graphic so faded that Benrey couldn’t tell what it was. Motherfucker didn’t even have shoes, and he was currently struggling to maintain his balance on the slick floors in his basic-ass white socks. His eyes were bloodshot, and he had a red mark on his face, one that would soon enough turn into a deep purple bruise. Had two arms, though. A win is a win.
He regained his bearings as quickly as he could be expected to, and leapt back into action, presumably to continue his mad dash in the opposite direction. His eyes caught up with his brain and spotted the lone guard standing in the hallway in front of him.
His mouth fell open. He stared in shock.
Benrey pointed to the gun in Gordon’s hand. “Hey, did you steal that?"

Summary
“Alright, sure, I’ll fight a ghost,” Techno drawled, and this time Phil really laughed, leftover adrenaline finally receding the tiniest bit. “That’s fine, I’ve trained for that. We’ve got the ocean, so we’ve got salt, and, uh, scriptures, I can write some of those. God Emperor Technoblade, it’s got a nice ring to it. Truly classic. You and me, Phil, Antarctic popes. We’re starting our own religion.”
Phil’s mittens reeked of spilled fuel, pungent and sharp. His head ached, whiplash from the hard landing settling into a pounding behind his eyes, and he was numb and shivering, each frigid inhale scraping his lungs, but those sensations could probably keep him awake, as long he didn’t slip from shivering into hypothermia. Survival instincts, those were good to activate. He’d been in the air over twenty-four hours before he’d been shot down, he needed all the alertness he could scavenge.
“Yeah? What are we worshiping, slowly starving to death?”
“Chaos,” Techno informed him. “Chaos and frostbite. Speaking of frostbite, how’s the navigation going?”

Summary
And then, it was eye-contact. Hank could always tell what kind of personality a person had just by glancing at the way their eyes looked at him. Fear, nervousness, pride, intimidation—
But that look in the stranger’s eyes, it was practically a blank slate. Unreadable.
It was unthinkable, and almost impossible to think that someone from the AAHW could dissent, because what was a clone if they were not loyal to a fault? A dog without its leash, a dog that could not bite when it was asked to do so, a dog that could not be trained on hatred. Useless, they were.D03 is an Engineer, and he did not hate Hank J. Wimbleton.

Summary
On a corporate owned mining asteroid in the depths of the Corporation Rim, a group of plucky, heroic, indentured humans have just decided to make their first move in a daring escape plan. Said first move is a deceptively simple hack, putting control of their corporate overlords' single, overworked SecUnit into their hands.
Little do they know, this murderbot is already hacked.

Ranboo is dead. He does not feel the box wrench itself open and tear the remains of their head apart like a tangerine. He does not feel the wires being torn from their place coiled through the bones of his hands and he does not feel the remains of himself slump forward when the rest of them are cut.

Summary
It was almost strange to think that Management had tried for nearly twenty years, through varying cruel and unusual means, to turn Sneeg into the perfect Showfall student — someone who wanted nothing and did nothing, who only lived to work their fingers to the bone, and then work the bones off their hand — when all it had taken was the maybe-death of one cosmically disposable cast member, and the maybe-shredding of that piece of his heart that was convinced he knew what the warmth of the Sun felt like.
-----
The fallout of the death of one Frank, last name unknown, fifth and worst of Showfall's Taken.
