    Summary

    Passivity once meant letting centuries roll her by, watching the sun rise time and time again from a hill on high. Now, in a world with skyscrapers so tall they pierce clouds, Quanxi finds there no longer exists a place for spectators. Her conflict aversion manifests in the form of eviction notices lettered in slurs, and the only salve exists in perfumed necks and collars.


    Quanxi navigates her working relationship with Makima.

    Summary

    There was silence for a moment, and Laura kept dangling her leg outward, practicing at its angles- seductive, childish, coquettish, painful. Then she said, “I hate it when you try to understand me.”

    It was such a Laura thing to say. “Why?”

    “Because it means you’re trying to think like me, and I don’t want you to think the way I do,” Laura said. “Besides, only people who love you try to understand you.”

    (a brief and one sided reflection, in three parts)

    Summary

    "No one's dying in their sleep," Kaoru says, turning the bolt on Rei's front door. "And no one's getting robbed."
    "Well then," Rei replies, "this is shaping up to be the most tedious evening we've ever spent together."

    --

    Bits and pieces from Rei and Kaoru's early days together.

    Summary

    "A meaningful violence," Reze said, around the severed flesh in her mouth. She spit it into her hand and wiped at the blood that dribbled down her chin. "So we can be meaningful people."

     

    Or; Asa and Reze, and the handling of all that is dead.

    Summary

    "I'm sorry," Aki mumbles. He's pressing his palms against his eyes, hoping that will somehow give him some clarity. Maybe a cigarette will do the trick. "I just - I know he won't die, I know that, I'm just…what if he does? Then it's my fault, right? Because I didn't do enough."

    or; aki comes home to find denji very ill, and even with help from power and angel, he's worried that he isn't equipped to deal with it.
