    Summary

    One of Heinz’s inators turns him handsome, and Perry has never been this frustrated in his entire life. Not because his nemesis is suddenly attractive (though it certainly does things to him that he’s not going to acknowledge anytime soon), but because of all the people who suddenly want Heinz’ attention.

    Well, too bad for them, because Heinz Doofenshmirtz is his nemesis.

    Summary

    It smiled at him. With his teeth. His muscles, deteriorating and rotting. It stole him, it wouldn't let him rest. It dragged him through the earth. It strung him like a marionette, and then smiled at him, used his voice, it used it wrong.

    It defiled his body, taking him from the one thing he could be guaranteed: rest in death. Couldn't even let Ted have that. It's so cruel, it's not fair, it's sickening, and it is grotesque.

    Booster looks at it, (definitely not him, it. Calling it him would be to dishonor that memory, the memory of that kind, selfless, wonderful man.) he looks at it and only feels complete and utter disgust.

    “That is the sickest damn thing I have ever heard.” His body fills with that familiar rage, that grief, that despair.

    Booster is going to vomit.

    Summary

    In recent years all he’d wanted was for Vox to be quiet, but now it’s the silence that’s too damnably loud; he sets some music playing with an irritable flick of his fingers and remembers Vox in the sixties, humming and tapping his foot compulsively to this very piece. Everything in Alastor is tense, painfully taut with the onslaught of memories of how things used to be. He grinds his teeth and claws at his hair as he staggers to his feet, pacing the small circuit of his tower even as his gaze always finds its way back to Vox. Time is an abstract thing; it might be minutes, hours, or perhaps even days. Does it matter? Vox was never a patient man, even in the beginning. Always chasing progress and innovation, more territory, more viewers, more profits. He’s patient now, though, waiting silently for Alastor to get his fucking act together. The same song is still playing, over and over and over on repeat.

    Alastor has never been very good at letting go of the past.

    Summary

    “What do you want from me?”

    Jon watches as Elias shivers through another wave of tingling. His lips press together until they go bloodless, and then his tongue finally darts out as he speaks, hoarse and breathless.

    “I’d like to kiss you,” Elias says, pupils blown wide and hungry in an infinite ink-black void.

     

    Driven by curiosity, Jon experiments with kissing Elias.

    Summary

    Vox has never danced much, and certainly never with another male. He’s a little nervous, but Alastor’s here. He looks at the man’s face, and they’re about the same height. He’s still smiling. He smells like rot and decay and blood, but everyone does, at least a little. Vox can hear the static cackle in the air.
    He wants to kiss him.
    He doesn’t, not yet. But he wants to.
    |
    Throughout the years, things change with Vox and Alastor, and they stay the same, too.

    Summary

    It's no surprise that dropping in to visit without warning would eventually result in Alastor showing up while Vox is already occupied with something else. Personal maintenance can be so complicated when you're half-mechanical, after all! Luckily, Alastor is a dab hand with electronics, and very willing to help out.

    Summary

    Jon has had The Conversation with a grand total of five people so far. Four out of five times, it ended the relationship immediately. One time, it was only one out of many factors that ended the relationship further down the line.

    It stands to reason then that the problem lies not with his – partners –, but with him.

    That’s okay. Jon has made his peace with that. He doesn’t need to – he’s fine. He’s fine.

    So what happens when Martin asks him out?

    Summary

    “I’m sorry, did you say eleven years old?” Ratthi asked, because humans can’t play back bits of conversations that they didn’t hear and are always asking each other to repeat things, much to the annoyance of any contracted SecUnits being forced to listen in and record everything they say to be sold for advertising data.
    “Yes,” Gurathin confirmed, and then everyone was staring at me and looking all shocked and sad and whatever.
    “Constructs don’t age the same way humans do,” I reminded them, before anyone could start thinking anything stupid like oh no, Murderbot is just a little kid and little kids shouldn’t be doing security and eleven year olds shouldn’t have guns in their arms. "Eleven is old for a SecUnit. Most of my inorganics are already past warranty.”
    Except, because I’m an idiot, that didn’t make it better. It actually made it worse, because now even Dr. Mensah was making a concerned face at me.

    Summary

    “I was just making an objective observation.” I pulled up a compilation of my best footage and attached it to the feed. “She fits the criteria for what is deemed attractive by the media.”
    “Oh, wow,” Ratthi was saying. “You got that together really fast.”

    /Another day fighting to save a colony from the corporate hold. Nothing to see here!
