Summary
The hand around her wrist crawls up her forearm, her bicep, skitters across her clavicle. Trigger is inspecting the scarring on her jaw, and that’s why she’s petting her with her thumb. That’s why she’s pulling her closer, and why 11 isn’t resisting, because why would she deny her this?
“11,” Trigger says tentatively, like she’s waiting for the rapture. “Do you remember what we talked about the other day? About… the harmonica?”
11 thinks she might be waiting for it, too. “Tongue blocking,” she says neutrally.
“I’m not terrible at it.” Trigger rolls her head to the side, speaking into the wall. “I prefer lip puckering when I can, but sometimes you can’t really get away with that. Some songs are just trickier.”
“Right,” 11 says. “I can see that.”
A wayward, lop-sided smile. “I’m glad you understand.”
11 kisses her. There’s no justification for that.
-
A perilous brush with treachery.

Summary
“So, it’s a tragic love story,” Anby concludes. One of her hands strays from Nicole’s waist to toy absently with her collar, tracing over the familiar outline of a scar underneath; the sting is not novel, but it doesn’t negate the instinct she has to flee. “One where… The protagonist dies before they can tell their loved ones how they really feel.”
Nicole sighs, and Anby can feel it against her jaw, along her lips. “If you’re so worried about that,” she says, “tell me.”
Her eyelids flutter closed. “I can’t defy the genre. That’s bad storytelling.”
“I’m changing it, then,” Nicole says. She rolls her hips, and Anby’s shuddering breath disturbs the hair around her ear. “Fuck me, Anby. Make it up to me.”

Anby doesn't know how to apologize. Nicole shows her where to start.

Summary
11 turns her head, and Trigger’s lips are terrifyingly close to her cheek. Behind her visor, bathed in orange, her eyes sparkle with something small, vulnerable. She’s breathing hard through her nose, and all Trigger can think is, do I always have this effect on you?
Though 11 would never admit to it, Trigger likes to think she does.
She grins, sharp and thin, and leans in close enough that she can feel the rolling warmth on her lips. “Would you rather I help you pass the time, instead?”
-
A rare moment in which Soldier 11 and Trigger can indulge themselves, hidden away from the world’s gaze.

Summary
The first things she sees when entering the office that morning, twenty minutes later than usual, are the bristling figures of Harumasa and Soukaku. He’s holding something over her head defensively, and she’s jumping for it, until she seems to give up and hits him swiftly in the stomach. When he doubles over, she snatches the object from his palm with triumph. Upon further inspection—as she storms over to scold one or both of them—it appears to be one half of a bagel.
She sighs. This is why she can’t take time off.

How uncanny it is to have found each other again in the same place they thought they were avoiding. She was right. They were both full of surprises.
