    Summary

    This is a story about choosing, against all obstacles, to become a better person. This is a story about the mundane power of names. This is a story about treading water so high you need to crane your neck to breathe, and the undertow is building, and it hates you. This is a story about communication when all lines have been cut.

    This is a story about putting yourself back together even while someone else is smashing the pieces with a hammer.

    Summary

    If Shadow's going to be miserable in Rouge's apartment, he might as well be miserable and useful. Rouge enlists him to be her model for some eye makeup, promising that if he hates it, he can take it off, but if he likes it, he can come out with her tonight. She's planning on going to a fancy gallery opening to swipe some unsecured jewelry off of the rich bidders, and maybe enjoy some free snacks while she's there.
    And well, Rouge knows damn well that Shadow isn't nearly as opposed to the idea as he seems.

    In which your scientific job of science has you doing much more art than science, you’re praised for making cup ramen by a fish, there’s a robot on your desk who nearly sparkles, and you accidentally go on a date.

    With the robot.

    Congrats on the sex, by the way.

    Summary

    An elf with no name and no memory escapes from a pod on a crashed Nautiloid. In a bid of desperation, he finds himself wrapped into an unlikely alliance with a group of adventurers ostensibly trying to find a cure for their shared affliction as he tries to piece himself back together. There is something oddly and unpleasantly familiar about several of his traveling companions, but the answers are lost in the tatters of his mind.

    Summary

    Chess is a delicate game. A few wrong moves, and you can end up with more than you bargained for--for example, a desperate and devoted scientist vying for your affection, and fragments you had shattered long ago putting themselves back together. It's not easy being king.

    “How much will it cost?” Aki asked. Angel looked up, as if he was running some numbers in his head.

    “Thirteen years, once a month, every month, for the next thirteen years of your life. You’ll be delivering about two thousand years in total,” he said. “Then whatever else you take is yours to keep.”

    Hoping to extend Aki's lifespan, the Angel Devil offers Aki a contract.
