Summary
“Kai, you know my thoughts on your self-destructive tendencies,” Zeide said, bringing Kai back to the present moment, the cool Benai-arik night air, the lights of the city below them and the stars above.
“Yes. Disapproving unless necessary for our overall survival?” Kai said, trying for a joke but not quite reaching.
Kai and Bashasa share a quiet moment, Ziede shares some concerns.

Summary
“Taako,” Barry says, pushing his glasses up and pinching the bridge of his nose. “Why did you think casting a spell from one of my four hundred year old necromancy texts was a good idea? I only have those for my dissertation. You’re not supposed to use them.”
Taako scowls. “Why are you leaving four hundred year old—” He covers his mouth as he starts coughing, trying not to choke as something pushes its way up throat, dropping from his lips into his waiting hands—a single gold coin, gleaming and new and spotted with blood.

Summary
You might think that my biggest problem right now was the fact that my left arm was barely hanging on to the rest of me at the elbow, but that was in fact only my second biggest problem. My biggest problem was that letting ART fix it would require taking off my shirt, and taking off my shirt right now would make things very awkward, very fast, due to the number of incriminating scars it was currently hiding.
Murderbot has a secret. Its friends find out.

Summary
I pull close to it in the feed, and say, “You were lucky.”
The rogue SecUnit reacts, physically and in the feed. It sits bolt upright, and a wave of fear ripples off of it like a [cloud of micro-debris], or like an [emergency evasive maneuver that grinds a planet’s upper atmosphere]. It’s unpleasant. It’s unfamiliar. I capture the data, store it, and start chewing on it immediately.

Summary
Zagreus stops in front of him, head tilted up to look at him. There’s a cut on his face, and without thinking Thanatos reaches out, runs his thumb over it to soothe it shut so at the least he does not bleed.
Zagreus is still looking at him, quiet.
“Zagreus?”
“You came,” Zagreus finally says. He smiles; it makes all the flames that curl around his laurels spark. There is such a soft and tender pleasure in his words. “After all this time.”

Summary
University has been hard on Marinette. Making new friends and maintaining her grades is a lot easier said than done when she has to disappear at odd times to fight akumas. She's struggling, and with Alya away with family and Adrien painfully out of reach, she's never felt lonelier.
If only she could talk to someone who really understood her struggles... but it's not like Chat Noir would know anything about loneliness. Right?

Summary
Your face is not SecUnit standard. There have been alterations made to your skin and hair. There is a rapid-cycling fluidity to your expressions that is like a human’s, but not. Your feed is still a strange and curious torrent of nonsense. You use security-protocol-language and human words in tandem. You are like a human begging for mercy, and like a bot requesting resources and strategic backup.

Summary
Everybody had expected Monarch's defeat to be a moment of triumph. Nobody had expected Gabriel Agreste, unmasked and mind frayed from continual abuse of the miraculous, crying out to all who would listen and making Paris certain of one thing:
His son, Adrien Agreste, is one of his sentimonsters.
And now he's missing.
Nobody can find him— not even the superheroes, and not even his closest friends. But Marinette, Nino, and Alya aren't ones to give up so easily. They'll find him, no matter what it takes.
(But, geez, would it kill Chat Noir to lend a hand?)

Nothing could ruin it, not even the supervillains of Paris: Hawkmoth and Chat Noir.

-

Summary
“The first time that Miles has an earthquake induced panic attack in front of Phoenix Wright, he's in the detention center, and being accused of murder.
The next time that Miles has an earthquake induced panic attack is also in front of Phoenix Wright. He's convinced that the universe is out to get him.
And just the mere thought of being so willingly vulnerable with Phoenix is enough to make his knees weak, even in spite of recent events. It's different, to choose vulnerability, rather than to be cracked open. And it’s different when it’s Phoenix. For whatever reason, for maybe a million reasons that Miles can’t bear to admit to himself, everything is different when it’s Phoenix.”
~~~~~~
In which Miles gets the support he so desperately needs, and maybe a little more.

Summary
A flash of a memory came back to Miles: he was in his office, and he was methodically pouring himself a glass of water. There was a bottle of pills on the desk, cap missing, placed directly behind the glass of water. Its image was distorted in the liquid, strange and fluid in a way that solid things shouldn’t be. He was in his office, and—
Slowly, Miles said, “I tried to kill myself.”
