    Summary

    So, dead or alive? Abandoned or absolved? What was he– Simon the Convict, Simon the Butcher– against this backdrop of blackness? Nothing? Everything? Inconsequential? Pivotal? Thoughts eddy through his mind until he is drowning in them.

    Until he hears a noise.

    A sound that takes shape and defies his muddled understanding of his current existence. Wavelengths that weave the shredded actuality of Simon back into something whole, something that very nearly makes sense.

    A voice.

    Summary

    Clearly, Grace’s refusal to engage with Simon’s outwardly destructive behavior had given Simon an excuse to turn that destructive behavior inwards.

    The beam of his flashlight swept across the sandy beach, illuminating the rolling waves. The distant hum of the wave machine combined with the sound of water crashing was just enough of a comfort to make Grace want to close his eyes and go back to sleep right there.

    But he couldn’t, not without Simon at his back.

    --

    For the first time in a while, Grace wakes up alone. Simon is nowhere to be found.

    Until Grace does find him...in the ocean, with no pulse.

    Summary

    When Caleb and Darem are kidnapped as Caleb slowly succumbs to blood loss will they be able to escape in time?

    OR: You know that Tumblr post that says that the first (or maybe second) rule of whump is that the human body can lose approximately 2 liters of blood. Well, that's basically what this is (*insert evil laughter*)

    Summary

    Colt feels like a blood vessel is about to pop in his head. He is dangerously close to snapping. Jody doesn't seem to be doing any better; her delicate features are completely contorted into a deep scowl. Actually, "scowl" is putting it mildly—he has never seen his fiancée this downright furious before.

    "What do you mean you've lost our Ryland?!" Jody's voice skyrockets, not only startling Colt—who is standing right next to her—but probably blowing out his eardrum in the process. "We just brought him in for an update! What exactly are you trying to imply?!"

    The target of all this yelling, Eva Stratt, the manager of the CyberLife branch in California, doesn't even flinch at Jody's escalating outrage.

    "As I was explaining, Mr. Seavers... unfortunately, we have discovered that your ST-12011 model android, Ryland, is no longer on the premises."
