    Summary

    She closes her eyes, but she keeps the image of Zoey displayed on her retinal implants.

    Maybe, just maybe, her weekend wouldn't be completely wasted.

    Her eyes drift open, staring out the window again as the divider rolled up while John makes arrangements and they continue their little journey through the city.

    Neo Seoul never sleeps.

    Something keeps tugging at her mind that maybe, with this Zoey, she could.

    If only for a night.

    OR...

    Mira is the heiress to one of the big seven MegaCorps in a Cyberpunk Dystopia. Trapped in her role as CEO on their payroll and soon to be married off for stock-market gains, she dreams of a last night of freedom.

    Zoey turns out to be her dream come true when she books her for a night and messy sparks start flying.

    And then she also gets a VIP experience with her favorite Rockstar icon Ryu Rumi?

    What more could a lovergirl ask for? Unfortunately, the two have quite violent history and are about to make her life so much worse (but also so much better!).

    Summary

    Letting someone into your head means letting them know you to your core, and then losing them means being alone in a way you never could have been before.

    Ranger Ryu Rumi, former pilot of the legendary Mark IV jaeger Demon Song and a survivor of the Jaeger Program's golden age, before everything went wrong and the war turned against them, has paid that price. Once the pride of the Shatterdome, now she's scarred and alone, and the sheer weight of the loss has her resigned to that fate.

    So failed cadets Mira and Zoey, humanity’s last hope, have no place in her lonely world. But with the Breach growing more active again, Rumi is forced to return to the Shatterdome to teach them how to love what she lost, and to hold on to each other harder than anyone outside of the Drift ever could.

    But the Drift is a tricky thing, it calls to the heart and soul, so they start to want to hold on to her too, even as she tries to stay away. Because the Drift already ruined her once, and she doesn't have the strength to risk it happening again.

    Summary

    “Oh my god.” Zoey shoveled it into her mouth with reckless abandon, alternating between chopsticks and spoons. “Oh my god.”

    “It’s not that good. You’re lying.” Mira leaned in close to the camera, possibly to get a better look at the food in Zoey’s bowl.

    Zoey looked at Mira wide-eyed. “Mira, it’s—oh my god. This is the greed the Bible warned me about.”

    “You’ve never read the Bible,” snarked Mira.

    “I just—the chef is gorgeous, Mira! And her food is—” Zoey lost her words, then she shook her head to reset her brain. “Babe,” said Zoey seriously, leveling her gaze at her girlfriend, “I’ve discovered the divine intervention that’s gonna get you to this place.”

    Mira’s jaw dropped open. “Why didn’t you show me the hot chef?”

    “Because my girlfriend is Aphrodite and the chef is Venus and my fucking brain exploded because I couldn’t put together a single thought when not one but two hot women were staring at me at the same time!” wailed Zoey, for her steak was too juicy and her lobster too buttery. “Besides, if you saw the hot chef that would be one less excuse to come eat here!”

    Summary

    “Houston, do you copy?”

    Caitlyn panicked, feeling extraordinarily unprepared having been thrust into her new position without so much as even a handbook to consult. What were the formalities? What was she supposed to respond with? Where was the damn push to talk button…

    “Hellooo? I said Houston, do you copy?”

    Caitlyn fiddled with her headset, having finally found the green button on the side and hastily letting out a rather breathless reply. “Um, yes. Hello? This is Houston. I copy.”

    There was a long pause in which Caitlyn sat twiddling her thumbs, anxiety pushing the frantic pulse of her heartbeat through her eardrums. Was that wrong? Did she already fuck up? She took a steady deep breath, finger hovering over the talk button until the familiar voice of the astronaut came through her headset once more.

    “Damn, Houston. I didn’t expect you to sound so sexy.”

    OR

    Caitlyn has been assigned as the personal capcom to one of the astronauts currently on a year long expedition at the international space station. Cue long months of pining and desperate longing.
