    Summary

    Rogue SecUnit maintenance is untread territory. It is much easier to keep a SecUnit functional when it has access to the infrastructure it was built to use. Without access, you must provide your own infrastructure to it.

    “You didn't have to do that. I didn't ask for an update,” it grouses.

    You're uncertain what it will take for your SecUnit to realize its need for this infrastructure.


    In which ART is just trying to take care of Murderbot, and Murderbot is just trying not to overreact (read: panic, have a flashback, dissociate). And they get mad at each other instead of talking about it. That’s the whole fic.

    Summary

    The mission fails catastrophically. So does SecUnit. When it comes back online without any functional sensory inputs, it believes that it's still trapped on the surface of the cold, desolate planet, that its humans are all dead, and that nobody will ever find it. Luckily, it's wrong.

    Summary

    “How the fuck was it not a weapon?” 1.0 demands angrily. “You’d have used it to cause harm.”

    “Only to myself. That doesn’t count.”

    1.0 stares at me as if I said something completely logically unsound. “Three,” it says with minimal vocal inflection. “What the fuck.”

    I cannot determine an appropriate (safe?) response, so I do not respond.

    Summary

    Environment=secure & hostile presence=null, Three reminded me. You are safe. Then it brought up the situational improvement parameters it’d sent. Query: enact?

    I hesitated. Three waited. The thing was, these “improvements” weren’t necessary for the maintenance process. In fact, they were probably going to emotionally compromise one or both of us and make everything harder than it had to be. The smart, logical, reasonable thing to do would be to answer a negative and proceed with maintenance in a more standard/efficient way. Weirdly, though, that idea dropped my performance reliability by a whole percentage.

    So maybe I wasn’t feeling very smart/logical/reasonable. I told Three Confirm before I could talk myself out of it.

    nothing to see here, just two deeply traumatized living weapons inventing new forms of weird physical intimacy in order to inflict tenderness on each other

    Summary

    “Just breathe here for a moment, ta’ecelle." Essek had Caleb's bent leg resting in his lap, and he simply laid the deep maroon rope across his ankle. He sat and listened to Caleb breathe, trailing absent fingers up and down his solid thighs.

    He reached down to hold Caleb's chin in his hand, to gently tilt his face up to look at his eyes. He'd become something of an expert in those eyes, in the shine of tears and the cloudy haze they took on when Caleb went away. He saw them clear and piercing if ringed with dark circles and flickering with anxiety.

    or

    In the right person's hands, rope can be freeing.

    Summary

    "My name was Julian Alfred Pankratz. I was the Viscount's youngest son."

    Like he hoped, the Warlord hones in on one thing. "Was."

    "Pretty sure getting arrested for treason against Emhyr var Emeris, the mighty White Flame is enough to get me officially disinherited. Especially considering my parents turned me in themselves."

    Jaskier saves the Warlord's daughter. Despite his family ties, he's allowed to stay in Kaer Morhen while he recovers from his injuries. Eventually, it becomes home.

    It turns out Kaer Morhen might be the home Kiyan didn't know he was even looking for.

    Summary

    Geralt and Jaskier have slept together a few times, but they haven't talked about what's going on between them at all - that doesn't stop Geralt from wanting more. It also doesn't stop him from wanting to help when Jaskier goes off with another man for the night, one who hurts him and leaves him all kinds of a mess. Along the way, maybe they'll even figure out what they want to be to each other - or at least what they both mean when they call the other "friend."

    Summary

    Attraction to Dream of the Endless comes to Hob in a form of a slow, simmering fire. At times it burns brighter, other times it calms until it’s barely noticeable. It never goes away fully, partially because Hob doesn’t want it to.

    His companion is the embodiment of hope and dreaming. It would be sacrilege to give up hope in being wanted by him.

     

    _____
    Death comes for a raven, and finds her brother. He doesn't ask her for help, but prevents her possible entrapment, so she finds Hob Gadling and suggests he do something about the situation at hand.
    Cue a one man resque mission in 1926, which leads to dozens of years of platonic, yet vaguely romantic dating both in the waking world and in the Dreaming.

    Now with illustrations in the second chapter!

    Summary

    He really is just as beautiful as Hob remembers him. 

    Something ethereal, made of alabaster and stone and as pale as clean snow. Hair both artfully and terribly messy, frame slim and lean in his black coat. His eyes are still that icy blue, dark and piercing.

    His Stranger, his Friend, has come back. Several years late, but Hob is willing to forgive. Perhaps he shouldn’t be, he doesn’t know, but he is.

     

    (Or, Dream and Hob finally get to really know one another. And maybe Dream needs more time to heal than he’s willing to admit.)

    Summary

    Hob has to do a double take because Dream is crying; big, ugly, hiccuping sobs that wrack his skeletal frame to the point where Dream looks like a leaf in the wind. The raven that’d been following the man the last time they met— Mike or Martin or Matthew or something— pecks at the guys shoes.

     

    The story of how Hob Gadling starts a pub, beats up a god, stares down Death, falls in love with Dream of the Endless, and amasses a small army of fidget cubes. Not necessarily in that order.
