Summary
When frost had clung to her skin in starbursts and kept her rooted in place as the only one like her surrendered himself to a power too great to wield—her systems recorded the delays in her programming’s execution, the gaps in memory space where there shouldn’t be, the unsteady voltage of her power core. They defined it as grief.
That was the wrong definition to use.
or: this is what human emotion feels like, right?

Summary
“Woah, what’s this?”
Phantom echoes of the Bounty’s alarm system blare in her mind; Nya’s head snaps up quicker than she thought possible, her eyes locking onto the piece of paper Cole’s pulling off the wall—the piece of paper with the very specific and detailed plans for a new Samurai helmet.
On instinct, she lunges forward and snatches the blueprints out of his hands, balling it in her fists. Cole turns to her, confusion warping worry lines on his forehead, but Nya doesn’t give him enough time to ask the inevitable follow-up questions.
“It’s a sketch,” she blurts. “Of Samurai X’s suit.”

bradycardia [/ˌbɹeɪdɪˈkɑrdiə/]
a resting heart rate that beats too slow.—•—
If it weren’t for the sun dipping towards the horizon, Lloyd wouldn’t have been able to tell just how long he’d been laying there for. Time moves fluidly when you’re alone—a concept Lloyd’s been familiar with for years.

Summary
One statue already inhabits the temple beneath the mountain, but that isn’t what the workers are here for. They’re focused on a new figure carved out of rock: a new hero, sent to help the people who idolised his mother.

Summary
This is the part when Lloyd’s experience from years of leadership should kick in. He should be coming up with a plan; he should be figuring out a way to get out of this with as many people safe as possible.
But he can’t.
His mind is stuck on that one tiny, major hitch in any plans he had when he first arrived: the Ice Emperor is Zane. This isn’t another clear-cut case of black and white, good and bad—this is the murky grey taken from the middle.
This is Zane.

Summary
It was only visible for a moment. Caught somewhere between a blinding glow and deafening snap, Jordana saw laces of energy unravelling from flesh, lurching and weaving and alive. It was captivating like nothing had ever been before. She wondered what it felt like to wield pure unbridled energy, to live fast-paced and self-assured. There was no hesitation from master nor element. She didn’t even have time to see it claw into Ras’ arm before he and the man were several feet apart, surroundings fading back to their usual sickly green.
And though the lightning had died down, the electricity was still palpable. The man’s hair was still raised like an agitated animal’s, lifted by an invisible charge.
Ras stayed unmoving, but the glint in his eyes exposed his fixation. He would not leave such insolence unpunished.
...
Or;
Jay dies and Jordana pays the price.Series

Summary
Jay awoke from the nap with a replenished sense of purpose and, in a daze, set to transcribing the section of the ship he had seen in his dream. He had done this so many times before that it was mostly just a game of fitting the new information into his pre-existing understanding of the structure.
It went like this: the long hallway he had walked through in the dream could match almost anywhere in the current iteration of the floorplan, but the windows meant it had been positioned on the rim of the hull. Furthermore, the silhouette of an anchor he could see outside the furthest one meant that it had to be leading towards the bow of the ship. This was a strong start; it was a lot harder to work with dreams of lone rooms lacking windows, ones that he was only even sure belonged to the ship by the matching aesthetics and rocking sensation.
...
Jay fumbles a meeting with the Administrator, has an afternoon nap, and makes a mess of his office in that order.
