Summary
Ed is an engineer aboard the Revenge, an interplanetary research vessel on a multi-year mission to study Jupiter's moon Europa. An accident requires that Ed awaken from cryostasis over six months early, and finds his only companion to be Stede, the ship's onboard AI. They develop an unconventional friendship, but is it possible to have more?
This is classic mutual pining with a sci-fi twist, inspired by all of my favorite stories about the nature of personhood.

“You–” Ed was struggling to parse what Stede was saying. “You’re playing your version of this song for me, right now? Like, in real time?”“Yes, Edward, that’s correct,” said Stede softly.
Ed’s brain momentarily seized up. He supposed it made sense that Stede was capable of learning a set of rules to do something like arrange and play a piece of music. There was something unnerving about this song, though. It felt, well–it felt organic . Reactive. Almost collaborative in a way. Ed was lost in the push and pull of it, until the last notes softly petered out.
“So, what did you think?” asked Stede. It sounded nervous again. Why the hell would someone program an anxiety response into a bot?

Summary
Luigi pirates books. Literally.
Sailing around the kingdom to collect literature is Luigi's cozy version of a pirate life, and for the past year, he's the happiest he's ever been. That is, until heartbreak teaches him that life is not the picturesque fairytale that his relationship with Peasley led him to believe it'd be.
Without his happily ever after, Luigi comes to accept that everything is, actually, totally meaningless. But when he discovers the formidable Captain Bowser marooned on an island, he realizes that his adventures aren’t over. This just isn't the story that he thought it would be.
🏴☠️ featuring: foggy coastal coffee shops, precarious hostage situations, saltwater adventures, & a tropical blend of danger and comfort 🌻☕️

Summary
“I read the books about you,” Muriel said matter-of-factly.
Crowley wasn’t following. “The books about me?”
“The letter books to Aziraphale’s friend Diary? You must know them. They must be an angel, but I don’t think I’ve ever met them before.”
Crowley coughed heavily. “You’ve read Aziraphale’s diary?”
