Summary
It hadn’t disliked humans. What point would its existence have if it hated what it was created to protect? These were the sort of things V2 thought about while curled in the fetal position in the closest safe corner it could find. The stump where its left arm used to be was still bleeding and hurt like hell. Once it had healed, it was going to finish what it had started.

Summary
Despite being an improvement from the First through Third Generations, Fourth Generation human augmentation is known for its general unreliability and numerous drawbacks: most notably emotional reticence, physical deformity or weakness, and a diminished sense of self.
Few have given thoughtful attention to one way in which the fourth generation exceeds all others: a capacity, literally and figuratively, to allow for collaborative interfacing with conscious non-human entities.
For obvious reasons, the details of this particular trait have not been studied, and therefore cannot be predicted.

Summary
“People change as long as they live.” Ryoji sighs and Makoto feels the warm breath hit the back of his neck. “I think I’m afraid too. What if he’ll never hear me? What if I can only stay by his side and watch, like a lighthouse over the tides?”
Ryoji’s voice is so mournful. Makoto turns to him, slow and careful, scared to brush his face with the tip of his nose. Ryoji’s keen, patient eyes meet his own in the darkness.
“Is staying by his side not enough?”
Ryoji’s lips tighten. He shakes his head gently and says, voice straining with effort: “It is. But I wish he’d make that choice himself.”

The story of how Ryoji Mochizuki tries again and again to repay a miracle with a miracle.
