    Summary

    When Nori finally gets the patch installed, the Solver fights back. It refuses to let these two instances go and tries to blow up the planet in a last-ditch effort to eradicate them by forming a Null string. Nori though, refused to take it lying down, using her own Solver to try and counteract it.

    In the end, the null string exploded as its code corrupted, leading to the core collapse of Copper-9.

    But it also had another side effect.

    Because a few years earlier, in Elliott Manor, Tessa, alongside N, V, J, and Cyn, find themselves transported via a strange symbol to a new place. A city that looks completely deserted and abandoned, with worker drone corpses littering the ground. Thankfully they manage to find a bunker and hide out there.

    Only to learn that JCJenson has sent murder drones to Copper-9, one of their colonies.

    Now it's up to Tessa and friends, alongside an angsty teenager named Uzi to put a stop to-

    Wait...

    Why do the murder drones look like them?

    Summary

    Khan dies not too long after Nori, and Uzi is left alone. The drone child quickly falls into disrepair, becoming rusted and glitchy. Uzi is only barely able to survive, she is forced to change herself in ways no Worker Drone ever has before.

    J knows that her coworkers are lonely. As much as she refuses to admit it, she was lonely as well. So when N brings in a strange Disassembly Drone who seems to have just as isolated a life as the rest of them, who is she to turn them away?

    Summary

    Being friends with a Disassembly Drone came with it's quirks, Uzi Doorman had learned that rather quickly. They were quirks she could handle, annoying sometimes but also entertaining. It was just part of what made N so endearing to her. He was basically a golden retriever, in metaphorical purity and actual physical action. From his constantly wagging tail to his persistently happy demeanor. That didn't mean it wasn't exhausting, or confusing.

    Like right now. With his weird display of shiny things and constant hopping.

    What was with him?

    Shorter Summary: N acts like a bird to try and win over Uzi. It does not go well.

    Summary


    Before, it was just protocol. A directive— a job. The Worker Drone scraps surrounding him were just that: empty scraps, oil-less. But now?

    …All he could see were corpses.


    A story of choices and how those choices define us.

    Summary

    James and Louisa Elliot has had enough of their daughter wasting her time with those dumpster pets she dragged in long ago. To set her straight, they decide to take away one of her drones , regardless of her protests.

    To them, it's nothing more than taking out the trash.

    To Tessa, J and V, it's a chunk of their lives cruelly ripped away from them, never to return.

    And for one, small maid...it's an act most unforgivable-something that needs to be repaid in blood.

    Summary

    Many years ago, I made a deal to keep V and N safe. Sure, Cyn was a horrible eldritch monster and making a deal with her was obviously a terrible idea, but if it was the only way to protect the only drones I have left I would accept it in a heartbeat. Because now that everything I know is gone, V and N are my whole world. And I’ll do anything I can to keep them alive for even a second longer.

     

    A series of five short stories written from the perspective of Disassembly Drone J in the aftermath of the Absolute Solver/Cyn’s defeat. Now with extra angst.

    Summary

    J has had an accomplished career. She was such a good jobber. If the slain were stocks, J was the entire exchange. And exchange she did, countless lives and even entire planets for the promise that her team would survive intact, physically at least, until...until...until...
    It was not the most pleasant of deals, and no one on her team was really happy with it, or each other, but it kept them all alive, together, and with some semblance of themselves. It endured until that Uzi creature somehow tricked N and eliminated J, then corrupted V as well. A major setback, but if J just redoubled her efforts to add value, surely she could negotiate for her teammates, or at least for herself, that she might stay on the winning team. There was no chance they could beat Cyn.

    Except they did. J made the safest possible bet and lost. There's no more Cyn, no more purpose, no one who even pretends to want her around. There's nothing left for her, except a ship to repair. But there's nowhere to take the ship to. In the flickering light of a torch, there's at long last a choice.

    Summary

    The Celestial Cathedral was one he’d only ever seen photos of. The architecture was grand and sweeping and elaborate, all pointed arches and carved columns and flying buttresses. Its spires stretched high into the sky. Bursts of color in indistinct stained-glass windows dotted the massive building.

    Thousands of humans and drones alike gathered here to worship their goddess. N had never been one of them.

    J called it a freaky cult. Seeing the celebrations filling the streets for blocks in every direction around it, N was inclined to agree. These people were already celebrating his death.

    (or, every year, a drone is sacrificed to the Absolute Solver. this year, it's N)

    Summary

    J stood perfectly still, her hands steady as she worked. The scalpel glided through flesh with little resistance. Muscles and tendons swiftly pulled apart to reveal her objective.

    The dozen eyes surrounding her moved to inspect her work.

    "Pleased humming. Well done, J."

    Summary

    Tessa wavered in place even as J rushed from the room. Her parents or N. The parents who had a child because it was expected of them, or her first friend. The parents who never seemed to stop scolding her, or the beloved brother who never failed to make her smile. The parents who left cuts and bruises on her skin, or the drone who faithfully patched them up.

    It was really no choice at all.

    (or, Tessa and N navigate the apocalypse after Tessa rescues N instead of confronting Cyn at the gala)
