    Summary

    Lambert is dying after a hunt gone wrong, and confesses his love to a venom-induced hallucination of Eskel. It’s the only way he'll ever be able to tell the other Wolf how he feels, and he decides there’s no harm done since he’ll be dead soon anyway.

    But Eskel isn't a hallucination, Lambert doesn't die, and now they have to talk.

    It goes much better than Lambert expects.

    ------
    Set after the end of KCD2, how Henry got a strange scar on his back. Or, how Hans found a reason to carry on after the ghostly hunting of war.

    Summary

    Yeah, okay, cool. Erend’s on a trip to the beach with his best pal Kotallo and it turns out actually maybe Erend is terrified of the ocean. He’s got this. No biggie.

    (It’s a biggie.)

    Summary

    “What little things I thought I kept for myself,” he said slowly, “what things I thought I had learned...I have no way of knowing what is real, and what is programmed. I am not myself. I am not even Connor. I am a copy of someone else’s habits. Connor doesn’t exist.”

    “Says who?”

    “I did,” Connor tried to lighten the mood but his tonal subroutine didn’t kick in, leaving his voice blank, “just now. I am a machine, Lieutenant. I am not capable of feelings, or pain, or innovation, or free will. I run on input and code, and that is it.”

    “Oh yeah?” Hank didn’t sound impressed, “Then why the hell are you petting my dog?”
    -------
    The existence of life inside a plastic shell was news to him, or at least it would have been if Connor hadn't already, on some level, known it to be true. The introduction of a sadistic creator, along with revolution and changes to the geo-political landscape of the earth on which he was built should have been enough to contend with. Adding Lieutenant Hank Anderson on top simply set the avalanche of Connor's admittedly short existence rolling without any guarantee as to the fall out.
