Summary
"I know how to make it work." he declares with an unwavering confidence that Joe remembers once knowing. "I know exactly how to make Search work. And I'm going to make it happen."
Something in Joe starts pulsing — something that doesn’t quite have a name but that lives within every animal. Something before the fight or flight response, the thing that takes you from being ensconced in a dreamless sleep to fully alert with a pounding heart.
"And how exactly do you envisage that going, Gavin?"
Or: How Hooli came to be and what Joe MacMillan had to do with it.

Summary
The first time it happens, watching his father’s hands, the movements make him warm and sleepy, lulled and languid despite the gore and the gristle and blood. Wine-red stains the dressing table and something syrupy and hot bursts gently at the base of Rust’s skull, running down his spine and into his hands until goosebumps prick up on the backs of his arms.
He doesn’t know what it is, doesn’t have a word for it, but he likes it—craves it sometimes, maybe, in the cold and dark where there’s no warmth or sleep to be found.

He curled up with back pressed up against the wall at the head of the bare mattress. He listened to the window creaking, and the radiator humming, and the floorboards of the upstairs settling. And he wondered about community, and the idea of building sandcastles.

Summary
Set around 1996. Rust and Marty travel for an investigation and stay in an unfamiliar house. Marty has a great time, Rust not so much.
If you're looking thru my old works (first of all, thank you!!), maybe give this one a try! It doesn't get much traffic but I really like how it turned out.
