Summary
Nori crashed to the ground hard enough to make her vision glitch wildly. She barely had time to move before the monster had pounced on her, fanged grin split gruesomely wide. Its tail flicked up, and a scream was punched from her voice box as its syringe pierced through her torso.
The burning sting of its nanite acid was immediate and all-consuming. Her voice went choppy as her system overloaded from the pain.
(or, Nori gets attacked by a murder drone and it goes exactly as you'd expect—until it doesn't)

Summary
What remains after the absolute end? Astonishingly, a lot. Copper-9, those who lived on it, and specifically the heroes who saved it all, survived and went along with their existence, now better and more prosperous than ever. But for one drone, survival is not a blessing; it's an uncertain, ambiguous ball of contempt the universe might as well be trying to crush her with. Alone, trapped on the planet and with her former squadmates now certainly out for her life, even Serial Designation J's usual workaholic attitude starts to wane in the face of everything weighing down on her.
Meanwhile, a certain golden-retriever coded disassembler stumbles upon his former boss in a less than enviable state during a routine outing and decides that she deserves a happy ending as much as the rest of them. After all, with Cyn gone and nobody left to control them, what is there to stop them from finding forgiveness and healing?
Heaps of trauma, miscommunication, and years of self-conditioning? Sure, they might be miiiiinor obstacles, but N's sure they can figure out something... together!
OR:
The post-finale wholesome and healthy healing-oriented CodeGold fic the author has promised his socials for a month.

Summary
J, the human, has organized a evening party (for humans) alongside her siblings (also human, also not biological siblings) hosted at the manor owned by Tessa the Human. Uzi, Doll, and Lizzy are among the human guests. Cyn isn't at the soiree; she's in the basement doing whatever creepy stuff she gets into down there. V and Tessa are puzzled by her absence, J is somehow simultaneously relieved and annoyed by it, and N is saddened enough to go fetch the ball of sunshine (who never actually sees the Sun). He should not have done that. She was counting on it. Cyn was planning on coming to the party anyway, when everything was in place. N comes back, changed. There is only one thing he wants to do. And six people he wants to do it with. They'd rather not, at least not like this. But Cyn loves N, N loves doing anything, and the girls will love N, no matter how long it takes. (Not very long. Giggle).

Summary
The Elliots don’t do subtle. For Tessa’s 18th birthday, they throw a gala so extravagant it could fund a small country. The continent's elite swarm the estate with gifts, toasting a girl they don’t know and don’t care to understand. Tessa endures it all like she always does—silent, smiling, and seething. But for a girl like her whose only real friends are the dear drones she pulled from the dump, it’s a nightmare.
By the time she disappears from the party, no one notices. Except for N.
He tracks her to the balcony, hidden from the eyes inside. She’s drunk, barely able to stand, and furious at the world. What should’ve been a simple task of trying to get her back to the party escalates into something more.
Words are exchanged, thoughts revealed, and actions are taken that change the nature of their very relationship and the future to come.

Summary
In his dreams, Curly witnesses divine conception. Anya is as immaculate as she’s always been, her dark hair like a halo that crowns her head when she tosses it back. She cries the same way he thinks Mary might’ve, and the scene is anything but holy. He is witnessing the consummation of their sins, confined by the chains of his own mortality to bear witness to the Hell that he helped create.
It’s far more poetic of a retelling than what actually happens.
