    Summary

    “About that,” Vi says. “How’d you end up here? What did a girl like you do to get tossed into this two-star shithole?”

    “Really? That’s how you ask? No subtlety in it?”

    “Uh, yeah? I saved you from getting shanked in the shower, so fair’s fair. What’s your deal, topside?”

    “Caitlyn,” she says. That isn’t right. That wasn’t the answer Vi was after. Names are easily given away but so seldomly remembered in Stillwater, but it echoes in Vi’s head. She almost doesn’t hear the actual answer. “And though I have no doubt a thousand people have given this answer before, I did nothing. I was doing my job, and then I was here. No trial. No sentencing. No crime to speak of.”

    Half a decade into Vi's stay in Stillwater, a topsider turns up, raving about being a Councillor's daughter.

    Summary

    Judy's not sure what to make of V. She looks nothing like your typical Night City merc, doesn't talk big game like your typical Night City merc, and has a sunshine smile this side too soft for someone in her profession—or for someone from this city, anyway.

    It's hard to not be a cynic when you've spent your entire life in a city that just takes and takes and takes.

    -

    Or: Judy relearning to trust, and V learning to move forward.

    Summary

    “We created it. But, biologically, it’s identical to any other. I have the same need for sleep, food, water.”

    “Created it, huh?” Ava leaned a shoulder against the doorframe. “Based on what?”

    “Input from our limited data on earth. We developed a cache of features and arranged them.”

    “Ah, like create a Sim.” Ava nodded. At Beatrice’s blank look, she said, “It’s an earth game. We’ll play sometime. And, um, you know. You guys did a great job. At arranging.”

    “Thank you.” Beatrice blinked. “It was designed to be aesthetically pleasing.”

    “So you’re hot on purpose.” She blew out a long breath. “Honestly, thank God. That’s kind of relieving. I was worried I was—”

    Beatrice is an alien researcher looking for information on earth. Ava, as it turns out, has a lot to teach her.

    Summary

    Recently, Ava had been watching Youtube videos on mindfulness in an effort to try to increase the percentage of her thoughts she was able to keep just in her head. That training was about to fail her spectacularly. “One of the nuns is kind of cute.”

    Mary’s fingers paused mid stitch. Ava’s fork paused halfway to her mouth as her brain caught up with what she’d just said.

    “Ava, what the fu—”

    Or,

    Ava has to spend several weeks in a church archive. The person running the archive is a nun, and also hot. She is totally normal and respectful about this.

    Summary

    “I saw a titan eat her." After a couple of minutes of utter silence, Eren sits up, a different aura to him now. The fight inside of him starts to die, apparently, having him sit with a blank stare and shivers overtaking his limbs, "I— I couldn't do anything. She had to save me, again, like she always does… if she hadn't pulled me out of that titan's mouth I would be— I would be—"

    "Dead. You would be dead." Annie finishes for him, not a bit remorseful.

    Annie lost her humanity the day she was transformed into a blood seeking monster. She never had a say in what she became, and so she learned to pretend to be a human, a sheep instead of the wolf she actually was.

    But maybe, just maybe, by saving Mikasa a part of her human self can return.

    Summary

    She doesn’t know what exactly it is about Mikasa. Someone as passionless as her, with such empty eyes, who doesn’t even have enough pride in her skills that she’d hide it at someone else’s say so, surely someone like that doesn’t deserve her interest? Eren may be formless and lacks discipline, but in his eyes burns an uncontrollable passion. Like he’s bigger than his own body. That’s what’s attractive about him. Compared to him, Mikasa just pisses her off. She can’t place a finger on why. Mikasa just does.

    ---

    In which Annie finds herself inexplicably drawn to Mikasa, the only problem being that Mikasa is her boyfriend's sister.
