    Summary

    “You wanted to see me?” Jayce’s voice was even, relaxed.

    “I did,” Viktor said evenly, though the tension in his voice betrayed him. He gestured to the report on the table, his fingers trembling slightly. “You’ve read this, I assume.”

    Jayce’s gaze followed the motion, landing on the report. His shoulders sagged as he let out a quiet sigh. “Yes, I’ve read it. Why?”

    Viktor turned to face him fully, his grip on the cane tightening. “Why?” he repeated, his voice sharpening. “Because I need to know how much you knew about this operation.”

    (Or, Viktor finds out about the enforcers gassing a building to find Jinx)

    A troubled police officer is assigned to investigate a lead on corruption, but a series of events causes many secrets to be revealed. In this dark cyberpunk universe, trust is not an easy thing to earn, and a good Samaritan will more likely end up with a bullet in the brain then a reward for their deeds...

    Summary

    The theory behind it went something like this: remove the traumatic memories, and replace them with happy ones, simulated in a world without danger. Their real bodies safe in the real world, hooked up to pods and asleep, when their simulated selves frolic about not knowing they're made from code.

    Yeah, great. Except anyone with basic knowledge of repressed memories knows that just because you forget a trauma, doesn't mean the effects of it go away.

    The whole thing was transparent: it wasn't to help anyone heal, but to alter problematic people and their personalities.

    Hence: cult members.

    The V3 killing game in a world where the cast are Remnants of Despair—all of them, that is, except Kokichi Ouma, an AI made by Hajime Hinata with a dead boy's name from the coded-corpse of Chiaki Nanami.

    These classmates have already killed him once, he knows. Will they do so again?

    Poor George
    There's something about him that I never really liked
    Poor George
    He's growing up before your very fucking eyes
    Poor George
    You can kill him, but you'll never kill his pride.

    Summary

    After toeing the line of total burn-out, cynical author Jeong Yunho and his rabbit, Princess, try to enjoy the newfound peace of their cozy home while figuring out how to fight a creative death spiral — until his upstairs neighbor begins cooking up enough noise to compensate to the silence of the dead.

    When he gears up for a confrontation, he finds himself coming face-to-face with Song Mingi's - the notoriously lovely sponsor of his firms upcoming novels - charm and innate ability to fluster those around him full-force, Yunho included.

     

    “But why?” grunted Yunho, his tone familiar with cynicism he wasn't sure he'd ever be able to shake. “Why would you even want to bother with someone like me? I’m not—”

    “You think I don’t know that?. I’ve seen your bad moods. I’ve heard the comments. You think that’s enough to scare me off?”

    “It scares everyone else off.”

    “Well, I’m not everyone else.” Mingi’s thumb traced a slow, deliberate path along the edge of his lip. “I’m here, aren’t I?”

    “You think I’m worth all this trouble?”

    He grinned, leaning in just a little closer, his voice a whisper. “I know you are.”

    Summary

    It's the morning of November 3, 1999.

    Kyushu stands tall, but not whole.

    After almost single-handedly saving Japan from one of the greatest disasters the world has ever seen and one of its foremost islands from destruction, an inconsequential teenage Hāfu boy becomes a global sensation and hero almost overnight.

    Still high off his victory and reveling in the attention, he accepts the very first offer that Alexandria herself gives him, for what boy in his right mind would refuse?

    All the fame, all the glory, and all the pleasures he'd been denied for so long were now within his grasp.

    He just had to reach out and take them.

    But after joining the American Protectorate, Kenta, now Lung, finds his youthful fantasies unrealized as he grows into a man.
