Summary
Recent statistics show death by hanahaki is on the rise. Sources disagree as to why.
Dialectical materialists say that the encroaching nature of the Pale has made it easier for hanahaki flowers to take root. When in ancient history, it needed a passion like that of madness to manifest in reality, now, an unrequited crush, lust, or admiration is often enough.
Communists say it is because we no longer exist in a state of love with our fellow men. Capitalism has been driving us apart so much that we don’t love our neighbours, so even platonic affection is unrequited and strangles us.
_____
Harry has chronic hanahaki disease. This is some drabbles about it.

Summary
Optimization is V1’s specialty. From projectile punching to explosion-propelled feats of acceleration, V1 was made to make itself better: faster. To achieve maximum performance, it opts to optimize its energy usage. A more efficient source of biofuel may exist—but V1 needs a means to extract it. A particular peripheral used by Mindflayers seems promising.
V1 intends to test it on Gabriel. There must be something better than blood.

Summary
PECEPTION (SIGHT) [Easy: Success] - Ahead of you, Kim is stretching. The lean muscles of his bare shoulders shift as he bends down in a toe-touch before you start. His control over his body is unmatched. He straightens, adjusting his glasses, and starts running.
PHYSICAL INSTRUMENT [Medium: Success] - He’s been holding out on us. This is a man with a fine physique.
ELECTROCHEMISTRY - Maybe this wasn’t a mistake after all?
