    Summary

    Noted historian and author Xiuying Liu (Elite Power: the White-Collar Paracriminal Lobby, The Yàngbǎn in Việt Nam, 1994-2009) takes an incisive and fearless look at the American military-heroic-industrial complex, and the ways in which emerging parahumanity became entangled with ongoing transformations in capitalism during the tumultuous decade that saw the birth and death of the first parahuman 'heroes.' Charting the development of 'Endbringer diplomacy,' Liu demonstrates unambiguously the ways by which the politics of eternal crisis became the foundation of post-Soviet American hegemony, and how the Protectorate-PRT became the sword and shield of the US State Department. A must-read for anybody who wishes to understand how the unprecedented material forces at play in the last quarter-century have created our unique historical moment.

    Summary

    Gwi-ma has been defeated and demon numbers are dwindling. The iridescent Honmoon is holding fast, stronger than ever. Bobby even imposed a one month hiatus after their ‘Break up’ at the idol awards, no exceptions. Everything should be perfect.

    So why is Rumi destroying their home gym at 3 o’ clock in the morning?

    Or: The one where Rumi was raised to be a weapon in a war that no longer needs fighting, and is now learning the hard way how to love and be loved instead. A little bit therapy, a little bit slice of life, but mostly 'All these problems could be fixed if you just kissed about it instead.'

    Summary

    She wants them.

    She wants Mira and Zoey so badly, in whatever way, shape, or form that comes in.

    For once in her life, Rumi wants to be selfish.

    Or: HUNTR/X works towards sealing the Honmoon and falls in love along the way. Pre-reveal Rumi, hiding both her patterns and her wants, loves her girls in whatever way she can until she's free (whether that means shielding Mira and Zoey in fights or pretending to be something she's not). She just has to hold out until the Honmoon’s golden. Straightforward enough, right?

    Summary

    “Wow, it must be fate, then! Fancy meeting you here, I’m your new roomie!”

    Lan Zhan is a simple woman. A pretty girl like Wei Ying tells her it is fate that they have met, and she commits it right to memory, she takes it right to heart.

    And if the universe has divined this for her, then what is Lan Zhan to do? Not grab what the universe has to offer?

    Absolutely ludicrous.
