    “Drink this, and I’ll consider serving you again,” says Legs, and there’s something in her accent.

    “What are you, my mother?” She scoffs, already lifting the bottle up to take a sip.

    “Why, do you want me to be? We just met. It’s a little early for a mommy kink."

    Summary

    Months after saving the world from the hivemind, Carol Sturka is drowning in vodka and solitude in an empty apartment in New York. She lost an eye, she lost Helen, she lost Zosia, and humanity lost its faith.

    When Zosia shows up with a gun and a lot of anger, ready to kill her while wearing Carol’s yellow jacket, there is only the truth left: they ruined each other, and neither of them wants to be fixed by anyone else.

    Summary

    "Do you not have a room in this place?"

    Zosia smiles, like she's happy to even be talked to. "We go where we are wanted, Carol."

    "Right."

    "Would you like us to get a room of our own in this hotel?"

    Carol shrugs. "I mean, that sounds better than hoping Koumba won't be relocating his next strip-poker night in your current bed, so... sure."

    Zosia sways a little, hips first, hands clasped in front of her. The sash of her robe dances with her waist, and Carol’s hands twitch by her sides - imagine holding it like a leash, or weaving the silk under her flesh.

    "Okay."

    or,

    Carol stays in Vegas. The hive sends Zosia back with a new strategy in mind: seducing her into forgetting her dead wife.

    Summary

    Even now, days later, she hears the buzzing. The frequency of the hive. When Zosia was joined, her head was full to the brim. It was a feeling larger than self, it couldn’t be described really. Now, she’s empty and the empty space in her head would vibrate, as if calling out for mercy. Calling for rescue from the hive. And Zosia would try to push the sound away.

    or; Zosia gets unmerged/unhived and has to comes to terms with it.

    Summary

    The concept of suffering a separation while in the midst of the magnitude of the Joining was... disconcerting, to say the least.

    Zosia had been claimed and had been discarded. But even after that, in amidst of sleepless nights soaked by whisky, Zosia was still needed – in safe doses and at safe distant – for Carol Sturka and all her contradictions.
