    Summary

    There were too many, with the same debilitating affliction. In varying degrees of severity, from unresponsive hands, to full body paralysis. The latter of which begged to be put out of their misery. The water was the source of our suffering, poisoning all life around it. Soon, the gnawing hunger and thirst dulls the senses of many. Fury, fear and despair surfaces from the minds of once honorable beings. Now driven mad, cornered and forced to act.

    What would you do in the face of extinction?

    Summary

    " 'Many who had fallen comatose with the infection are waking up, seeming healthy and whole.'

    The king dismissed the courier, and began the process of ordering further studies."

    Some unknown force has resulted in the disappearance of the Radiance, just before the infection could reach its peak under the Pale King's rule. The mystery soon takes a back-burner to a rearranged custody agreement over Herrah's brood, some clumsy attempts to re-establish marital trust, and some long overdue re-evaluations of the Pure Vessel. The king will send his newly unusable creation to train under the Great Knights, and become their sixth.

    Court intrigue, sibling bonding, goddess hunting, different brands of motherhood, and accidental arson are abound.

    Summary

    “So, about your, uh… girlfriend,” Monster Kid stammers. “Are you guys, like… fighting? She’s way scarier than usual…”

    From across the schoolyard Susie shoves Snowy out of her way remorselessly, almost crushing the apple juice in her hand from the might of her grip. Everyone stares fearfully as she passes.

    “I’m working on it,” Kris says.

    Kris has never been witness to a functional relationship, but they'll fight tooth and nail to set their own example.

    Summary

    Susie,” Kris’s voice deadpans from the other end of the line, “if you don’t call me back in five minutes, I’m killing myself.”

    Noelle stares.

    Susie coughs. “They, uh. They don’t mean that.”

    Susie makes her first friend. Somehow, they're even more insane than she is.

    Summary

    There was this day—cold, late March, wind still mean—that stuck in Noelle’s mind like a grain of rice behind the gums.

    She’d ducked into the corner store after school. Her mom didn’t like her going there, said the magazines by the register were trash and the cashier had too many piercings. But Noelle wanted a soda. Something sweet, just for her.

    Kris and Susie were there already. Neither of them saw her. They were standing by the fridges in the back, heads close together. Susie was laughing at something Kris said. Kris’s hands were in their pockets, a little hunched, but their shoulders relaxed in that way they never were around anyone else.

    And it was nothing. It was two people in a corner store. They weren’t touching, weren’t kissing, weren’t anything. But it was everything.

    Noelle left without the soda.

    ——

    Summary

    Susie thinks she's starting to get it, but when she sees Kris, she really gets it. They don’t even open their eyes when they walk in; not until Noelle greets them. They look like death.

    “The hell is wrong with you?” Susie blurts before she can stop herself.

    “Sick,” Kris rasps.

    Kris falls very ill. Others are forced to face the reality of human fragility.

    Summary

    Noelle fell fast and hard for Susie. Embarrassingly so, really—while she can ace a math test or whip up a five-paragraph essay in short order, she’s incredibly out of her depth when it comes to romance. But after her strange dream in the library, she’s determined to give it her best shot.

    Kris has been pining after Noelle for years, too shy to say anything. That’s probably why it stung so much when she started crushing so obviously on Susie. But even though Kris missed their shot, if they can get Susie and Noelle together, they’ll still be making Noelle happy in some way, right?

    Susie’s never really had friends—not until Kris came along, that is. So when she accidentally learns that Kris likes Noelle, she’s determined to be the best wingmonster ever for her new friend and get Kris and Noelle together, no matter what it takes.

    Or, three oblivious lovesick dorks chase each other in circles like idiots.

    Summary

    Five years after the Liberation War, a mission to extract a mole in the ADVENT Remnants goes horribly wrong. With the threat of traitors amongst XCOM's ranks, former operative William Mackenzie is pulled out of retirement. William enters into a world alien to the one he left behind, a world trying to rebuild from the destruction of the Liberation War and wipe away the taint of the Elders. He soon finds himself falling down a rabbit hole of terrorist plots, schemes and conspiracies in a secret war that could end XCOM itself.

    And leading him into a new world is the only survivor of the failed extraction: a jaded, chubby, French-accented viper.

    Summary

    The war for Humanity's autonomy is over, the alien despots of Advent have been overthrown by Xcom and a new age is on the horizon. However, world changing events do not occur without a price. Power vacuums were created in Advent's absence, their alien pawns, once completely under control, now have found their own autonomy, the land and its people are forever changed by their presence. All that's left for Humanity and Xcom to do is pick up the pieces, rebuild, and decide what to do with their former enemies. In a successful city state, located in territory once called the United States, a young man, from humble beginnings, does NOT have the power to fix ANY of these problems. To be fair, it's a big job, and he has his own problems to deal with. Life in the city isn't easy, everyone has to contribute, even him. And it's hard to decide what you want your future to look like, especially in a world filled with so many possibilities, but perhaps his new job will give him some direction. Will he be driven insane by the mundane environment and monotonous labor? Probably. But, will he also meet someone who interests him enough to pull him out of his comfort zone? You'll have to read to find out.
