Summary
It wasn’t the weirdest day Bob had had. Okay, so it definitely wasn’t normal, but neither was the time Felix had tied him and Mr Fischoeder up and left them to die. Neither was the time where they had all nearly been killed by a giant animatronic shark. Or the time he’d been kidnapped and held hostage on a cruise ship. Or the time they’d stolen some guy’s mannequin wife from a sex shop. Or the time -
Point was, zombies weren’t really out of the question, as far as Bob was concerned. Mustard-hating zombies were certainly more unusual than what he’d heard of before, but not the most unusual. All in all, it wasn’t a terrible day for Bob.
Of course, they were stuck at Wagstaff with Mr Frond and Tammy, and there was an active zombie apocalypse, but Bob was sure that the situation could be worse.

Summary
“Are you drunk?”
“What, because I said I’d kiss you?”
“Yes.”
“No, I’m not drunk. I’m tipsy, but I’m not a complete lightweight. And I would, you know.”
“Would what?”
“Kiss you,” Helen said. She put her drink down and stared across at Roz from across the table, her dark eyes serious and sparkling in the dim light.
Roz felt her heart skip a beat. “Go on then,” she said, before she lost her nerve.
“What?”
“Kiss me.”

Helen and Roz go to the movies.

Summary
Andrea didn’t know how much longer she could run for. The fear had kept her going so far, had kept the exhaustion at bay, but her lungs were burning, her legs aching, her heart hammering harder than it ever had in her life. She was running faster than she had from the farm. She longed for it to be only walkers chasing her. At least she knew what they would do if they caught her. But the Governor? He would kill her, certainly, but what would he do before that? She could survive walkers, but they were easier to survive than an angry man.
////
Instead of trying to lose the Governor in the factory, Andrea tricks him.

Summary
“Are there any volunteers?” Pomponia asked, the boredom in her voice obvious. She knew, from her years of being the escort for District Six, that there wouldn’t be.
She was wrong.
Her mind made up, Iris stepped out of her section. The girls around her watched her warily, eying the cuffs. Iris took a deep breath, before thrusting her hands in the air, stretching them over her head. The cuffs protested the movement, but she ignored the pain, held herself tall and proud. “I volunteer as tribute.”
She wasn’t going to let anyone but herself choose her fate.
****
She was more than just a Morphling, once.

Summary
Helen hated being sick. She hated sitting at home and waiting for her body to stop throwing a tantrum. She hated thinking of the paperwork piling up on her desk, the client meetings she’d have to reschedule. What she usually did was carry on as normal until she collapsed or got better, whichever came first.
Whatever. At least she wasn’t a baby about it. William had been such a sook when he was sick - he’d get one little cold and whinge nonstop at her for a week until he got better. Helen didn’t miss that. She was better off without the cheating prick.
It did, however, mean that no one was there to force her to rest, and so, armed with tissues in every pocket of her brown suit, Euky Bearub slathered on her chest and feet, and a large pack of Butter Menthols in her bag, Helen went to work.

Takes place somewhere in between S2 and S3.

Summary
YOU — You fidget with your fingers for a moment, and then look back at him. “Are you okay, Kim?”
PERCEPTION [Easy: Success] — He blinks twice, surprised. Then he looks away, turning his gaze to the violet and blue sky.
EMPATHY [Medium: Success] — He feels uncomfortable, sometimes, having such raw concern and sincerity pouring out from you with only him as recipient. You’re… intense, on a good day.
KIM KITSURAGI — “I’m alright,” he says. His fingers twitch, like he’s itching for a cigarette. “It’s been… a long week.”
ELECTROCHEMISTRY [Trivial: Failure] — Oh, it’s been long, and it’s been hard. Makes you itch for the neck of a bottle in your hand, neurotransmitters firing wild, fireworks behind your eyes.
(or; Kim has a rough week. Harry helps, in his own way.)

Summary
Kim feels for the Satellite Officer. It’s clear what he’s been through, what Harry has subjected him to over the last few years - Kim only knows the half of it, of course, but he’s seen it before, hermit-cops pushing everyone away, their partner last man standing at the bombsite. Still, it feels cruel to punish this person for it, this wiped-clean, remade Harry, looking at Kim now like a bottle-fed animal about to be released into the wild. If Kim does go to the 41st, navigating all this will be an extra layer of complexity. He should think very carefully about it - about whether it’s worth getting mixed up in all of it. The mess.
A slow-burn, Kim-POV story about going to the 41st, against his better judgement.

Summary
Harry finds himself in the liminal space between Martinaise and actually having to be Harry Du Bois again. He needs to return to his apartment, and his job, and his life, but the prospect is terrifying; everything that was once him is everything he can't allow himself to be ever again. Kim helps him make the transition, and Harry pines wildly over him. They eat food and talk about the homo-sexual underground. Harry tries not to cry a lot.

Summary
His thumb traces slow circles around the nub of bone in your wrist.
“Kim?"
He pulls his hand back. “I’m sorry, I’ve been drinking.” He smiles. His pupils are dilated and the warmth coming off of him is feverish and so tempting.
