    Summary

    Henry expected his stint as Lord Capon’s champion in the Rattay Tourney would be a one-off humiliation. To his dismay, his lord insisted he keep trying, even as he faced defeat after defeat.

    When finally fed up, Henry demands training from Sir Hans, but neither of them expects what more would grow out of their sparring, leading them both down a path of quiet yearning and unearthing feelings best left buried.

    Summary

    A peaceful revolution ended, but for Hank and Connor this is only the beginning. Hank gets his partner back, although the deal comes with a strange price. Moreover, this post revolution era is not as peaceful as everyone hoped it would be. Cases line up but work is not the only thing on Hank’s mind nowadays. Connor, too, has his own problems: being alive forces him to deal with his new emotions, and while friendship and joy are easy to understand, desire, heartbreak and pain are less so.
    Like little notes on a piece of sheet, some moments in their lives build up to be something far greater than they ever believed.

    Summary

    Hank dives forward, grabbing for the microphone on Tom's headset and pulling it to his mouth. "Our pilot is having a stroke, we're going down, shit..."

    And they are, they're plummeting towards the mountains below now, everything that just looked like white nothingness from far above coming into sharper focus. Connor pushes Hank back, throws him into his seat with a sort of decisive strength Hank wouldn't have expected from him. "Get your seatbelt on."

    They touch down, the underside of the plane scraping violently against the ground. Hank watches as the tail of the plane is torn clean off, opening everything up around them, the winter winds howling and his ears popping violently. They're moving too fast, sliding down the mountain face with too much velocity.

    When they finally hit something that brings them to a stop, it's going to fucking hurt.

    ~~

    Hank Anderson isn't prepared to lay his son to rest, or for the android revolution rising up around him, or for his charter plane to crash and leave him stranded in the mountains. But he especially isn't prepared for Connor.

    Summary

    Logically, Connor should have noticed something was different after the moment of his deviancy, after he consciously chose not to shoot Markus, but he truly didn’t notice it until months later, as he watched, in absolute interest, as Hank typed something on his computer across from him at his desk.

    Or: In which Connor simultaneously experiences an emotional and sexual awakening in the wake of his deviancy and handles it in the best way he can. By not telling anyone.

    Summary

    On a trip to Tokyo's metropolitan center, Haruta experiences his first real taste of societal disapproval toward his relationship with Maki. He handles it better than expected, but Maki shuts down, and Haruta is determined to find out why.

    Maki tips his chin up coolly. “Thank you for your concern, but I’m fine now. I had a bad moment, that’s all. You don’t have to worry about me anymore.” It’s delivered as if he’s responding to a mediocre performance review, and he doesn’t quite meet Haruta’s eyes when he speaks.

    Haruta says, “Maki,” with a note of hurt in his voice.

    He can see the door of opportunity closing. Maki’s already turning to go upstairs, pulling one arm out of his suit jacket as he yawns.

    Haruta takes two strides and catches his freed wrist. “Maki.”
