    Summary

    He knew it stung Ilya, people not understanding. It stung him too. Because to Shane, loving Ilya was like breathing and also like standing on solid ground after years of drifting. It flooded him and steadied him at the same time. It hurt, knowing the world reduced them to a rivalry, a strange story, a piece of scandalous gossip when what they had was so much more. He wanted to be by Ilya’s side for everything, the mundane, the bright and the hard. And maybe not everyone who was in love felt like this, so overwhelmed and so steadied all at once. But Shane did. And if love was a contest, well… he is the winner.
    Best couple. Number one. Most epic love story ever.

    Or 4 times Shane told people him and Ilya were practically soulmates and the 1 time the universe told him.

    Summary

    ”Shut up you both, I’m thinking.” Cliff interrupted. “It needs to be embarrassing. You were definitely making me do something embarrassing.”

    Ilya caught his chest dramatically. “I would never. I’d make you drink more vodka. And buy me some more vodka. All of us. We should drink some more right now, I think.” There was a round of agreement around the table, and Ilya registered someone leaving to order more drinks. He nodded with approval at that.

    “I have an idea.” Marlow threw his arm around Ilya's shoulders. “You, my friend, will go to one of Hollander’s games, wearing Hollander’s jersey, and you will cheer for him like the biggest fan that you apparently are.“ Cliff’s smile, Ilya thought, was a little evil.

    Drunk Ilya loses a bet, and he's challenged to wear Hollander's jersey to his game.

    He's not entirely unhappy with the idea.

    Summary

    I thought the survey had been going pretty well, with a total lack of hostile fauna, flora, corporates, or alien remnants, until the morning everybody woke up to find an unidentified silicone-polymer object sitting on the table in the middle of the habitat lounge. Now my humans were all standing around it, trying to decide whose sex object this was.

    Sometimes I hate myself for starting to get optimistic.

    Summary

    Most people have the decency to hide it, to disguise it at the very least. There was no reason for an augmented human to be parading around with an exposed data port, least of all this particularly annoying augmented human.

    Summary

    The humans are being weird, even for humans. And they're not as subtle as they think. And I know for a fact they're working for ART.
