    Summary

    From what you’ve pieced together about your…brother, he’s a very salt-the-earth kind of person.

    Which just makes it all the more confusing that he chose to keep you around.

    Or, Noah copes with his new place in the world. Mostly by not coping. And being kind of a little shit.

    Summary

    The dinner table at the Kaiba Manor had exactly three occupants. Seto Kaiba, sitting tall at the head; Mokuba Kaiba, ignoring the vegetables on his plate; and Noah Kaiba, in holographic form, him and his dinner projected out of Duel Disk left in the center of the table.

    Nobody asked for this outcome, and nobody's happy about it. They're going to have to tolerate it anyway, whatever kind of family they are.

    Summary

    Hera's offline for a routine debug, and Minkowski's nervous: bad things happen when Hera's offline. Will the intrepid Hephaestus crew survive the night? Plus, rockin' out to 80s tunes, the "oh god we're all gonna die" alarm, and buzzing Boston creams.

    This takes place between “The Empty Man Cometh” and the season 1 finale.

    Summary

    “Uhhhhhhhhhh Commander?” Eiffel says, poking his head into the main room of the bridge. “So… I didn’t know how to bring this up, but it’s still happening, so I thought you should probably maybe know… there’s a ghost in the comms room.”

    ---

    The crew of the Hephaestus are a superstitious bunch... but, honestly, who can blame them?

    A series of linked, sometimes non-chronological, slice-of-life-ish vignettes about living on a station that's haunted, or maybe cursed, and plagued with mysterious happenings, time out of whack, crazy crewmates, a star that won't stop being weird, and maybe even... ALIENS??? (Nah, probably not.)

    Summary

    “My apologies if I wasn’t clear enough at the start,” Cutter says, words sharpened with fake cheeriness. “I would like you to make more emails.”

    She takes in a breath and tries not to release it as a sigh. 

    Make more emails. If she dies today, whether by the alcohol or the death of countless brain cells, she wants those exact words on the coroner’s report. She wants the world to know that on this fine August afternoon at 1:13 PM, Maxwell had been asked to make more emails.

    Summary

    Season 1 slight canon divergence. Eiffel receives instructions from Command to do a (shudder) team-building exercise. Eiffel, Minkowski, and Hilbert enter the mysterious VR world of Box 953… and a capricious trickster AI named Eris puts them through three new harrowing tests to get them to face their secrets and work together better as a team. Or maybe just kill them. She seems to be like that.

    Hilbert faces a puzzle of a strangely familiar empty space station; Hera is not happy about another AI usurping her crew; Eiffel misunderstands what’s going on so fundamentally that he accidentally outsmarts Eris; and Minkowski’s dedication to playing by the rules is what breaks the game.

    Summary

    Eiffel may not have gotten an invite to girl's night on the Hephaestus (rude), but he has every intention of winning this rematch. Of course, if he wants to win, he'd better learn the rules first. It's not like Funzo can be that complicated, right?

    Plus, the psychology of tarot readings, Minkowski's hissy fit, Pryce and Carter 792, and pretty coloured marbles.

    Summary

    “Commander Minkowski,” he starts, half an octave deeper than his normal speaking voice. “What time do you call this?”

    Renée’s eyes roll to the ceiling, but Doug catches the flicker of a smile. “Never change, Doug.”

    -

    Reintegrating into civilian life on Earth is a path that's more pothole than paved road, but you can at least choose where you stop along the way. For the former crew of the Hephaestus, the place to stop on a Friday night is Doug Eiffel's apartment. The price of admission: one (1) work of pop culture that he absolutely must know.

    Summary

    "We've been kidnapped," Skip answered plainly and while he was very used to Norman's body and mouth Margaret had never heard him talk this much or this quickly ever before, "Well, I suppose you've been kidnapped. I don't think they know I'm here. I got in your head quick when we were first jumped and they knocked you out."

    Summary

    The Captain barely flinches at the sound of the distant explosion, instead focusing what looks like the last of his strength to hold out the cerebro-slug in his stiff, frost-covered hand. “Take him.”

    Nyne swallows, readying his finger on the trigger.

    “No,” Takamori rasps. “Take him.”

    Summary

    Nosks are an intelligent species to a degree - as they're still rather feral in nature and incredibly territorial - and they have their own secret society in Deepnest. Given that they have proximity to the Pale King, it was inevitable for them to gain minds and sapience... but they still retain a hostile nature to them.
    They morph and contort their bodies into makeshift lures, baiting unfortunate bugs into their traps and devouring them without a second thought. Before infection struck, they could even mimic voices.
    Hunting is all that matters. Providing food is all that matters. Your territory is all that matters.

    One Nosk in particular, however, does not share in that sentiment.
    While sure, attachments to others are unnecessary and strength is incredibly important in survival... why can't a Nosk be more than a ruthless animal? Why can't they gain honor outside of their kin? Why can't everyone know one Nosk's name?
    Why can't a Nosk be a knight?

    Better yet... a knight of great renown?
    Hmm. He likes the sound of that.

    Hi Jon and all,
    I would like to extend my congratulations, I suppose, to you Mr. Sims. You have reached 500 complaints here at HR! I have never seen this happen before, except for the researcher in Artifact Storage who found a Leitner that made everyone think she was assaulting them constantly. In your three years as the Head Archivist, you received these complaints from over 130 people.
