    Summary

    Optimization is V1’s specialty. From projectile punching to explosion-propelled feats of acceleration, V1 was made to make itself better: faster. To achieve maximum performance, it opts to optimize its energy usage. A more efficient source of biofuel may exist—but V1 needs a means to extract it. A particular peripheral used by Mindflayers seems promising.

    V1 intends to test it on Gabriel. There must be something better than blood.

    Summary

    "I was aware that our minds remained networked despite bodily separation," they said, their voice slightly crackling— something that only happened when they were saturated with affection.
    "But I was not," Al-An continued, "Aware of the extent."

    Summary

    *Sequel to Fix the Lights, Blue*

    Red had everything a benevolent impostor could ask for: Friends, a human boyfriend, and an easy job as a security guard on board the Skeld, a ship that is relatively stable and drama free. All of this is about to get turned on its head when an SOS call from another ship leads the crew into a trap, forcing Red to oust himself to save his crew from a hostile impostor.

    With the secret of his true identity as a shapeshifting alien out and his partner injured and unconscious in the medbay, Red faces new challenges in the form of fear-driven hostility from crewmates he once considered friends and a complication in the form of Yellow, a young and inexperienced impostor who wants to join the crew as Red's protégé.

    His life on the Skeld can never go back to the way it was before, but can he salvage what he has left and get back in the good graces of his crewmates?
