Summary
Hank has stopped thinking about his place in the world for a long time. Old, washed-up cops don’t live exciting lives. He just does what he always does: cracks cases, drinks whiskey, and goes home to Sumo.
But then the android sent by CyberLife shows up – disarmingly curious, intentionally uprooting all the familiar aspects of Hank’s life, and he jumps headfirst into an android revolution. Barrels into cases like an unstoppable storm.
Halfway through, Hank realizes he’s no longer at the sidelines of his life.
And that Connor makes it better. All of it.
[Or alternatively: an episodic glimpse into the life of Hank Anderson and his partner Connor. Takes place after the revolution, happy ending included.]

Even though Fane might be a grumpy, snarky skeleton from a bygone age, Aralene and the other Godwoken are quick to discover that he has an excellent way with kids. There’s a story behind it, of course, one that Fane only remembers in fleeting moments, made of half-truths and memories.
Until the very end, when there really is no chance for redemption.

Summary
The tension within Aloth gets another meaning when he recalls the Watcher out on the battlefield, her teeth brilliantly white against the steel of one of her weapons, tongue darting out to swipe a drop of blood off the blade.
That fine line of devastatingly beautiful but dangerous.
Aloth wants to be there suddenly – desperately, to walk that line and find out where it goes. What happens if he twists his hands into her shirt, draws her close, and kisses that dangerous mouth. If he follows her not with his spells but with his hands and his body and his tongue. What happens if he pushes his hands into her hair and stays there, kisses the tips of her ears like daggers, draws her into him as much as she’s drawn him into her.
[Or alternatively: Aloth barrels into having post-battle sex with the Watcher. There’s love involved.]

Summary
"...Yes, well. I'm not asking to...compile a checklist, I merely—"
"You probably would, though. A kinky bucket list. With color-coded sections and subheaders and a deadline for experimentation—"
"Don’t tempt me, Wright," he says, narrowing his eyes.
"Why does that sound like a threat?" Phoenix chuckles, shaking his head. "Won't work, anyways, I'm into that, too. Threaten me all you want, Chief Prosecutor. Write a thesis about our sex life, I'll frame it on the wall."
[Trucy goes on tour. Miles and Phoenix take advantage of her absence, and Phoenix makes a certain request.]

Summary
Julian doesn't think about it much these days. Why should he, when it's been so long?
But when he does, if he does, well—he considers it part and parcel of Garak, that's all. Disconcerting at first, a little invasive. Awfully close to a line but not quite crossing it, and leaving Julian with absolutely no idea what he's meant to do in response. Garak in microcosm, summarized in a single unexpected gesture.
(Or: Julian has always thought Garak just had a weird little habit. Until another Cardassian does the same thing to him, and seems to imbue the gesture with a meaning Julian really had not anticipated.)

Summary
What led Hob Gadling — at the time known as Robert Stranger, because he’d been in a permanent state of pettiness from 1889 to about 1904 and now he was stuck with it — to the dank, cold, and dark basement of the Burgess house on March of 1957 was not so much coincidence or fate as it was curiosity.
Yeah. Cats isn’t the only thing it kills.
Alright, wait. Back up. Let’s start from the beginning.
It was 1957 and Hob Gadling was, by no action or choice of his own, sort of — it’s a bit embarrassing — a criminal master.
Not mastermind! He hadn’t planned any of it. Honestly.
