Summary
"'And you come to me.'
Nastya ran her hand over the floor, a smooth and practiced motion. 'I know, I know, Aurora. But you can't blame me. You're easy to find comfort in.'
'Because I'm not human.' It wasn't posed as a question, and Nastya knew exactly why.
'You're not complicated. Messy.' Everyone who even had one conversation with Nastya knew how she felt about people. People were complex, and when they broke they couldn't be fixed. Technology was reliable. Broken pieces could be removed and repaired and replaced. Algorithms could be altered until they were infallible. God knew how many times she had adjusted Aurora's algorithms. 'You're a constant.'
'You're a constant for me, Nastya.' And god, did Nastya believe it.

Summary
"Nastya spent so much time in the engine room. There were many reasons for this of course. They were almost all related to Aurora.
Aurora kept her warm, making sure that Nastya was able to work without her fingers becoming numb and her lips turning blue. And being close to her love was always a wonderful thing.
She couldn’t hide that she found it more peaceful though. The other Mechanisms were so chaotic, explosions as constant as music. Probably more so, the more she thought about it.
She loved being where the humming of Aurora could drown out any sound."
Or,
Nastya is putting more care towards Aurora than she is for herself, much to Aurora's dislikeOr or,

Summary
"Cold.
Always cold, for as long as she could remember.
She was from Cyberia, of course her childhood was filled with bundling in heavy coats on the very few occasions where Nastya got to leave the palace.
And of course, upon escaping from the palace, bleeding on the snow, she was perhaps the coldest she had ever been. She hadn't had time to grab a coat or even a blanket in her rush to leave the chaos. Carmilla had found Nastya curled in on herself in the snow, trying desperately to keep her blood in her chest.
The only warmth she felt that day came from Carmilla's hand."

Summary
"'Nas?'
Jonny. Nastya wiped the tears from her face and sat up. She buried her face in her knees, curling in on herself.
She heard more movement in the room, and she cursed under her breath.
She felt a hand brush against her body, and it took everything in her power not to hit it away. Not Carmilla. She'd never let Carmilla in. 'I brought you a blanket. Know you're always cold, figured it wouldn't hurt.'
Nastya looked up, considering Jonny for what felt like ages, though she didn’t make eye contact. She then simply nodded, and she felt the blanket wrapped around her body.
'‘M not gonna make you talk about what happened,' Jonny continued, 'but I’m here.' He sat next to her, leaning against the wall.
They sat in silence for a few minutes, the only sound Aurora's soft whirring."
Or,
After time in Dr. Carmilla's lab, Nastya seeks out the comfort of her love, who in turn seeks out the help of the First Mate.Or or,

Summary
"Nastya sat on her bed, writing.
Well, that wasn't entirely accurate.
She had been sitting on her bed earlier, furiously scribbling ideas. But she had hit a wall.
So now, she was laying on her bed, her blue leather notebook tossed to the side.
Aurora beeped, startling Nastya out of her sulking. 'First Mate d’Ville is on his way here, my Nastya. Should I let him in, or do you wish to be alone?'
Nastya groaned. 'Jonny wouldn't ignore a locked door, he'd just get Tim to blow it up. And I really don't want to repair it again.'"
Or, 5 times the crew of the Aurora sought out Nastya, and one time Nastya sought out her crew

Summary
Nastya made her way into the lab to find Raphaella at her table, which was covered with papers. Raph smiled at her, waving her over. Nastya stood over her and pressed a kiss into her hair. “You better not be dragging me into a fucked up experiment, angel.”
Raphaella laughed. “No, not this time. I don’t think either of us want to deal with… Anyway. No offence, but you really don’t know your way around a lab.”
Nastya sighed. “Yes, you’re right. I’m better with machines anyway.” She traced the port on her wrist, the thing that allowed her to connect with technology better than the rest of her crew.
Raphaella’s eyes darted to Nastya’s wrists, but she didn’t comment. She knew it was a habit of Nastya’s. She looked back to her face, grinning. “Well, that’s why you’re here!”

Summary
"Athena stared at the transcription of Arachne's smear. It made her sick. Of course, she knew about Zeus'... habits. Who in the City didn't? No, what sickened her was that Arachne spoke at all. How much had she done for that lowlife? She'd taken a nobody and offered her all she could. And this was how Arachne thanked her?
That vile woman would pay, Athena knew that much. But how?"
Or, Athena has to come up with a plan to punish Arachne for her defection.Or or, Mechtober day 2: Mythology

Summary
"There were, perhaps, four people who truly knew the relationship between Jonny and Nastya: Jonny, Nastya, Carmilla, and Aurora.
They were able to say, without a shadow of a doubt, that Jonny d’Ville and Nastya Rasputina were siblings. And oddly enough, the last to know were Jonny and Nastya."
Or, Jonny d' Ville and Nastya Rasputina aren't much different from each other when it comes to family.
