Summary
"I’m sorry.” Sokorra said, an edge of laughter in her voice. She came around Beta so that her face came back into Beta’s eyeline. “I just didn't expect any family of Aloy's to be so..." Beta saw Sokorra visibly pause over her word choice. "...passive."
Considering that Elisabet and Beta were both computer scientists, which didn't usually include a lot of intense physical activity or violence, Beta would argue that Aloy was actually the odd one out in their weird little family tree.
“Any idiot can hit something with a stick until it stops moving.” Beta said curtly. “After all, if you can do it it can’t be that hard.”
OR

Summary
“You are mistaken, my lady, if you think I will submit myself to the flames again.” It was in her anger that her courtly words slipped, the artifice of nobility slipping from her mouth like a broken bridle. “The tantrums of a pampered prince are not reason enough to die in his place. I will go to the castle, speak to the King, and end this ridiculous charade!”
The hope that had risen in the Fire Keepers chest was put out all at once. Another Unkindled unwilling to fulfill their duty. The taste of it was bitter to the tongue. “Then I wish thee well.” The Fire Keeper stood, brushing ash from her robes. Her voice was curt. Sharp, where before it had been lyrical and soft.
“Milady-”
“Do not take my words as an ill omen upon thy journey. If the King still resides in the high seat, and if he has the power to command the Lords, I grant thee my blessing.”
Empty words, for a fool's errand.The Ashen One and the Firekeeper from the beginning to the end.

Summary
this au posits that jiran took talanah hostage as a guarantee of the hunting lodge's good behavior around 8-9 years or so before the canon time-line. that lasted a few years before tensions reached a breaking point again and he had talanah's brother and father executed anyway. he then engaged her to marry kadaman- which gave him a lever with which to keep his heir in line... which is why kadaman hasn't gotten himself killed already; he's worried would jiran would do to talanah to punish him. bc jiran has been a bit more politically canny, the red raids have continued and the liberation of meridian has not yet occurred. aloy is captured at some point during one of the red raids and transported to meridian to be sacrificed in the sun-ring.

Summary
“It is not your concern,” ART said. “They are no longer your clients.”
That was true. They weren’t my clients. But they used to be, and the thought of them going off by themselves to get chewed on by hostile fauna or whatever was doing funny things to my performance reliability.
I didn’t say that out loud, but ART knew I was thinking it anyway, because it’s a monster.
“For a construct that claims to hate its function, you are remarkably dedicated to it.” ART does this thing sometimes where it says something that sounds like a compliment but in such an obnoxious tone that it feels like an insult anyway.
“Fuck off, ART.”
“You fuck off.”
So, I decided to go on the survey.Several years after they met on RaviHyral, Tapan and her collective contact Murderbot with a job offer. As their security consultant on a planetary survey, Murderbot must contend with malfunctioning equipment, hostile fauna, and an overabundance of human emotion, all while maintaining its increasingly fragile disguise as an augmented human.

Summary
I had been incredibly skeptical when Ratthi had sent me ‘Midnight Eclipse.’ I knew what fanfiction was, I had seen it in the more niche entertainment feeds before. Never specifically for Sanctuary Moon, but I'd assumed it existed. That didn't mean I had any actual interest in it, though. When I had first looked at them, I hadn't liked them. The quality varied too much and a lot of them weren't finished, or were really short, or really out of character. And I hated that. I really really hated that.
This one was different.

Summary
“So–” Dennis starts, and Trinity honestly isn’t sure how she’s going to explain this one.
“I know it’s weird,” she says, gripping the steering wheel.
“I mean, it’s not that weird,” Dennis placates.
“He’s kind of a trainwreck,” Trinity defends, and then feels some type of way about the fact that she’s defending Langdon.
Dennis doesn’t disagree.
She promises him, “It’s only temporary.”
(Langdon's wife kicks him out. Trinity offers up her couch. She ends up learning a few things about her sworn enemy in the process.)
