Summary
"That entity— I think it called itself Assimilation? Scared the ever-loving shit out of me, and then they gave me this,” Collin pulled out a stack of neatly stapled papers and handed them to Kevin.
Kevin let out a surprised hum. Collin continued. “The blue-haired one stole like, all of my shit. Then they both left. Don’t really care if I see them again,” he slammed the wooden lid down with a thud. “I have enough to worry about around here.”
Vitriolic leaned over Kevin's shoulder to read the page. World 26, the title read, pestilence: recessed… yersinia: none… contagion: minimal;
“You know it calls you a bitch, right?” she said.
Collin deadpanned. “I’m aware.”
Kevin’s been getting calls, lots of them, about two strange entities appearing in players’ worlds. One or two reports would’ve been fine, but dozens pouring in every day? He's tired and just wants people to stop calling him about it. To track these things down and finally get back to business as usual, he’ll need help. That backup? Vitriolic, with guns blazing.

Summary
The android thrashed beneath her, feet slipping helplessly on the undergrowth. With her free hand, Vitriolic grabbed for her shotgun. She placed the muzzle just above his eyes—
And pulled the trigger.
Fight, flight, or freeze? A "what-if" situation based on the events of "Exaptation," and is not canon to Pandora’s Skinner’s Box.

Summary
In the wake of Andre and Assimilation’s tumultuous escape, the Admins are left scrambling to re-secure the Gridworld facility. Collecting their obedient little AI can wait; he was bugged anyhow, Andre wasn’t going anywhere once he achieved his goal.
Right?
Or: The Admins put too much faith in the unpatched bug in Andre’s programming, allowing him and Assimilation with just a bit more time to talk, to flee, and to come to more than a few realizations.
