    Summary

    “D’ya seriously not wear a jacket?”

    “I forgot.” Jabber replied with a shrug.

    “It’s below freezin’,” he said, reaching up to grab Jabber’s face. His palms were practically burning compared to his icy-cold face. Jabber let his arms loosely wrap around Zanka’s middle. “Get inside before ya catch a cold.”

    “Aw, you worried about me?” Zanka gave him a light push towards the door, his face stern.

    “I jus’ don’t want to hafta take care of ya on top of ma exams.”

    In the rush of winter finals, janka finds a day to themselves and go on a date.

    Summary

    Zanka shouldn’t have thought it.

    He wasn’t thinking about anything important. Just idle fragments drifting through his head. Whether getting up to make food was worth the effort, what time he had to leave the next morning to slip back into HQ without anyone noticing his absence, whether the cut on his ribs would scar.
    The kind of thoughts that fill the space when you’re too tired to build walls.

    Zanka shouldn’t have thought it.

    But the second it surfaced, it sank its teeth into him.

    ‘If the cleaners ever tried to break us up, we’ll just run away.’

    Summary

    Jabber and Zanka learn to embrace each other like the blade of a guillotine embraces the skin of a neck: eager and with irreversible damage. Just like Sisyphus, one must imagine them happy.

    Summary

    In a place like Night City, Zanka thinks he’s accepted that greatness isn’t in the cards for him. He thinks he’s content with his share in life being poverty, odd jobs and barely scraping enough eddies to get by. But a series of bad decisions—including a bionic spine, an apeshit crazy gang of mercenaries, and a for-hire freak of a netrunner that can’t stop drawing his eye—has him seriously reconsidering.

    There are no happy endings in Night City, but Zanka’s not looking for a happy ending. He’s looking to live.
