    Summary

    The man underneath him is one of those lazily charming guys who can get you to abandon common sense in favor of a quick hook-up with no strings attached. His smile is full of red flags, the kind you purposely search for when you’re having a bad day and you need something to take the edge off. Normally, Zanka’s too proper to give in to this kind of poison, but a botched mission has him chasing something, anything, to take his mind off of it.

    [Or, the one where Jabber and Zanka have a one-night stand, unaware that they work for two different organizations that despise each other. Oops.]

    Summary

    "He saw a flash of dreads and purple dash at him in a mere second, his fingers flexing on Aibo. In one turn, he caught the man in the opening at the top, sending him plummeting to the floor. Zanka put his whole weight on it, trying his best to keep him down.

    “Do I really need to knock ya out to make ya stop?”

    Jabber’s smirk was as wide as it could go. Wha–

    The pain throbbed on his arm, making Zanka wince as he looked down at the source of it. A scratch mark, stretching thinly across his forearm, bled out against his sleeve. His eyes widened, a choked groan leaving his lips as his grip on Aibo loosened."

    aka Jabber forgets to switch to his neurotoxin after a night of fun! If he got Zanka with it, then, he must deal with the consequences himself(gladly!).

    Summary

    Sol presses her lips together, her eyes skating over the objects in her home: the splayed fronds of the sunpalm, the throw blanket knitted by Auntie Seedent, the coiled wires spilling out from a bisected bot like bared and twisting guts.

    "Cal…" She chews her lip. She doesn't want to say it; doesn't want to be seen as paranoid, or callous, or needy.

    Worse, she doesn't want to hear the silence that tells her her fears are justified.

    Summary

    Jax is an absolute menace to society. Not only did he create enemies in real life, but he even has a horde of detractors online! Jax is an online influencer who is also learning the trade of hacking through his friend, Ribbit. While Jax is well known, it doesn't mean that any publicity is good. Barely able to afford a low rent apartment, Jax is hopeful that he and Ribbit will soon hit the jackpot once both become proficient in the ways of hacking.

    But then, a young woman named Ragatha has just moved into a unit down the hall from Jaxs'. Now, one would think that all Jax needs to do is just upkeep his malicious personality and push away this neighbor like he had with everyone else before her. However, her grating happy-go-lucky personality made it quite hard for his jabs to really hit home.

    So, it just means he needs to up his game.

    Summary

    “Jax, that’s not funny,” she tells him sharply.

    “And I’m not kidding!” He raises his hands in a surrender. “Listen, all the stuff I listed out before? This ticks the boxes.” He then hastily tacks on, “It doesn’t have to mean anything and it doesn’t even have to be me. I only figured I was the convenient option, seeing as I’m already here.”

    That last statement was very much untrue.

    An encounter with an abstracted Kaufmo has Ragatha all shaken up. Jax helps take her mind off of it.
