Summary
Grace Harper's body has undergone both mechanical and chemical augmentation to help her fight Terminators, but these enhancements come with some serious drawbacks. Because of how her body has been altered to optimize her for brief, intense battles, she experiences severe physiological consequences and requires medication and cooling to survive the resulting post-combat “crash” -- which makes for some really interesting fanfiction.
This piece of meta is intended as a reference guide for Terminator: Dark Fate fic writers who don't want to comb through a bunch of medical literature or figure out how to theoretically metal-plate a human skeleton just to finish their stories. In this write-up, we’ll take a look at what happens to Grace’s body during a crash, the medications she requires and what each is used for, and what kind of ongoing care she’s likely to need both immediately post-combat and in day-to-day life for managing the complications that might come with having a heavily medicalized body that is both enhanced and disabled. Additional chapters will include notes on how each of her augmentations might function and affect her combat ability along with her day-to-day life, particularly her power source.

Summary
You take another drag and tilt your head back to blow smoke up into the air in a narrow, swift column. "I wanted to ask - is it that smoking on balconies is required for initiation into the Homo-Sexual Underground, or is it just something you feel compelled to do once you join?"
In which Kim and Harry discuss the mistakes of the past, the potential of the future, and whether or not the moon is, in fact, a cryptid.

Summary
"This is good. You just need Kim to put his fingers right down into the back of your throat, and then he’ll be able to feel that there’s no bullet lodged in your brainstem, and everything will be okay. This is a normal conversation, and you’re doing well at it. You’re winning, even. This is great."
In which there is a great change coming to Revachol, Harry tries his best to conduct a normal conversation, and Kim is not, in fact, psychic.

Summary
ENCYCLOPEDIA: They call it "pink cloud syndrome", in alcoholics. The euphoria of fresh sobriety. An early phase of addiction recovery, after the worst of the withdrawal symptoms have faded.
HALF-LIGHT: Fuck that. Our cloud wasn't pink.
ELECTROCHEMISTRY: No, baby. It was the color of cigarette smoke, chestnut-scented, on the Whirling-in-Rags balcony.

April in Jamrock is not an easy month to survive. Harry's doing his best.
