“What? You’re not wanting to actually do this soap opera appearance, are you?” Rocky asked.
Grace’s ears pulsed with blood flow and he gave a twitch of a shrug.
“I mean…kinda?” he said. “I love As Erid Turns.”
Rocky turned to Adrian.
“Well?”
“Well, what? I think he should do it,” Adrian said placidly.
“Adrian! Grace is not some—cheap floozy of an entertainer! He’s a respected interstellar scientist!”

OR: Dr. Ryland Grace, unlikely Eridian soap opera star.

Summary
***
It was the lack of noise that told Courtland Gentry more than anything else that no one was actively trying to kill him at the moment. Had his assailant left him for dead? Didn’t matter, he needed to move no matter what additional pain it woke in his heavy body. Gathering his arms under him, he pushed up—
There was something in his right fist. Taking one last look around the alley to verify no new threats were materializing—Christ, what city was he even in?—he pushed back to sit against the nearest cracked brick wall and uncurled his fingers.
A crumpled yellow sticky note wrapped around a cheap plastic thumb drive lay in his palm.
He unfurled the creased paper and found his own blocky handwriting staring up at him.
"He goes to space. 37 loops and no matter what I do, he always goes to space."
Then, in letters so heavily pressed into the paper the ballpoint had almost torn through it:
"Save him. Save them both."

Summary
Benji's in trouble, and there's only one person he can think of to call.
But that means he has to tell Ethan the truth, and that might be even worse than the mess he's already in.

Summary
Ethan scrubbed stinging sweat out of one eye with the back of a tactical glove and impatiently cleared another cell. A choked whisper of doubt crawled up his throat as the dark shadows revealed no sign of his quarry. As he swung the muzzle of his pistol to cover each plane—corner, wall, angle back to the corridor—only shadows and slow wet drips of water on the floor greeted his desperate search.
Where was Benji?
Had it only been seven days since the taunting note fluttered under the doorway of his apartment?
"Funny little man is back with me. Don’t bother, Ethan, I’m going to ruin him forever."

Summary
“You want to get the fuck out of here?” he asks. A wave of recklessness is rising within him, a heedless, heady lightness that lifts him up through the weight of grief that’s buried him for days.
“What do you mean?” she says, brow furrowed, eyes flicking down to the weapons and back.
“I haven’t heard a goddamn word from the council about hitting back at FEDRA for killing our family. And I’m thinking I might just do it myself. You want to come with me?”
A spark of surprise flits across her features, but he can see the moment her rage surges up to meet his, hot and bitter in her eyes.
“Fucking yes,” she breathes. “Let’s fucking go.”
***
Or: FEDRA murders Tommy, Maria, and their baby daughter. Joel and Ellie set out for revenge.
