Summary
When the quakes began, it was caught entirely unaware, knocked off its tarsi and sent clattering to the ground, left to watch as two things occurred simultaneously: blackened threads began consuming the eternal Citadel and the ceiling above it began collapsing.
Or: As the void descends on Pharloom, the Second Sentinel is gravely injured. Its friend provides it with much needed aid.

Summary
Of all the gifts her father had given her: an eternal life, a gilded childhood, existence and mind; Hornet welcomed only the affinity for mechanics.
There was a joy in losing oneself to the puzzle of creating. To forget one’s fears and struggles and, for one shining moment, be focused entirely on the twist and fold of metal was a balm to the centuries of Hornet’s existence.
Even now, in Pharloom at the end of the world, Hornet created. Perched upon a bench within the Citadel, hidden well away from the void roaming the Citadel in search of something living or Pale to consume, she spun Silk and shards together into the form of her faithful cogflies.
Or: the Second Sentinel needs repair. A friend in need is a friend indeed.

Summary
It patrols the Choral Chambers, alert and aware of its surroundings, eyes darting across the halls and rooms for any signs or life, audio sensors straining to hear any echoes of song or psalm. Once, twice, some small number of times that nonetheless blurs together, it cuts down one of the haunted choir bugs, its twin blades making quick work at rending their carapace. Its joints grow sticky with hemolymph, the many colors of blood mixing on its metal shell as if it were nothing more than a painter’s pallet. Soon it will need to clean itself. The bugs huddled together at the settlement to the east blanch and scare when it is as untidy as it is now. It will abide by their preferences. To defend the Citadel, to uphold its directive, it must assure the wellbeing of the few who keep their wits about them. It will not do anybody any good for them to fear their defender.
Or: A Second Sentinel character study mixed in with a bit of Hornet hurt/comfort.

Summary
But before she can fully fall into her dreams, the door to her hospital room opens to reveal a nurse doing her rounds. The noise is enough to coax her mysterious guest from her sleep. Unlike Maomao, she’s fully alert immediately, and her big eyes go wide as she takes in Maomao, a wide smile erupting on her pretty face as she squeezes Maomao’s hand.
Is that flush of heat a fever? It must be. Perhaps she has the flu.
When Maomao wakes up in the hospital with no memory of how she got there and a strange young woman asleep on her lap, she slowly jumps to the logical conclusion.
(Perhaps she should have waited for more evidence.)
