Summary
How was he back, he knew he had lit the rig up, he could blatantly remember the feeling of heat on his skin before it all went black- it didn’t make sense!
Caz tried to reign in his breathing, swallowing back the lump in his throat as he struggled to breath. How was he back, was he back, was he dead?
Caz pinched himself hard without thinking, yelping pathetically as pain shot through his arm at the action. He definitely wasn’t dreaming then. That meant this was all real that he could never see Suze or his lovely weens ever again, that the girls would grow up without him- that he had truly abandoned them-
Biting back his ensuing panic he got up onto his shaky legs, intent on seeing if he could find anyone else. He had to find someone else.
This doesn’t make sense. The thought kept repeating in his head as slowly made his way towards the deck, the ruined and smashed deck by the looks of it.-

The Beira D crew is back, just... Not how they wish. Now they have to learn how to live in this strange new reality -

Summary
Innes would love to be able to publicly adore Muir, see the way his face would light up when joking with his friends, or how his freckles appeared like stars in the right lighting. He’d love to be able to hold him or go on dates in public without getting strange looks from those who didn’t even try to understand.
Yet if he were to do so they would both be thrown in prison.

The purposefully ambiguous 'TO MY EWAN' journal is haunting me.

Summary
“For question. Robot friend is smart so can help?” He seemed to be nervous, causing them confusion, why was he asking them of all people? They never even spoke to him, he was the very definition of organic. No matter though, they would happily take his tribute.
“WHAT IS THIS QUESTION?” They inquired, more interested in their buttermuffin than the plantling.
“Why do others not like me? Did I do something?” What. They paused before looking up at him, he looked desperate. It was weird, they had never seen him like this, he was typically always so chipper.
“WHAT DO YOU MEAN?” Their confusion only grew as he continued speaking.
“They act weird with me…” Oh.
TLDR
Wormwood isn't very liked by the survivors and he cant understand why, so he goes to WX-78 to clue him in and decides they are a good candidate for a friend. WX-78 gets dragged along, and feelings grow along the way.Series

Summary
Rudo and Regto are banished to the pits when he is only ten years old after they are framed for murder. They land in a garbage field of poison air, trash beasts, and a future scraped together from whatever they can salvage.
Nothing was trash to Rudo. Every item is important and he'd fix all of them if he could. How was he supposed to know that they seemed to care about him, too?
Or.. Regto does everything he can for Rudo on the ground even if it means risking it all when they join the Cleaners.

Summary
Four days in the decompression chamber, and Rob has been doing pretty well! He's pieced together a lot of what had happened, but there were still a lot of holes in his information.
Hopefully, the next ghost could help fill in those gaps.

Summary
Muir is a selkie, bound by the ancient laws of the sea. But when a storm brings him to the shores of an oil rig threatening his ocean home, he must take on human form to understand the true danger. Disguised as a man, Muir finds himself drawn to Innes, a quiet worker whose life has been marked by tragedy. As their connection deepens, Muir grapples with the growing conflict between his duty to the ocean and his burgeoning feelings for Innes.
Caught between two worlds, Muir's secret becomes increasingly difficult to protect. The stormy waters of his dual identity and the relentless advance of human industry push him to his limits. As the ocean’s rage threatens to consume everything, Muir faces impossible choices.
