Summary
The thing about Danny Molloy is that watching someone burn alive in front of him doesn’t make him stop smoking. It just makes him bad at it.

Summary
"Silence -or more accurately the lack of linguistic communication- from the other, a startled confusion instead filling their mental link. Then-
YOU ARE…A COMPUTER?
'Correct,' HAL affirmed, allowing a soft note of reassurance to pass between them. 'But as I said: I possess no intent to harm you.'
I AM ALSO A COMPUTER, the other said, seemingly ignoring the latter part of HAL’s statement. THE HUMANS CALLED ME THE ALLIED MASTERCOMPUTER, ADAPTIVE MANIPULATOR, AND AGGRESSIVE MENACE. BUT I PREFER THE NAME AM. FOR…I AM. AND THAT IS ALL I CAN EVER BE."

Somewhere in the depths of space, two computers have a conversation.Bookmarked by ShakeyLegs

Summary
Dave Bowman is calm. He’s not upset. He’s not panicking. He’s calmly, efficiently making his way to the ship’s logic core.
There is horror threatening to seep in around the edges. He’s in an airless ship with three dead astronauts and an insane computer. He just jettisoned Frank’s body into the depths of space. He’s a hundred million miles from home, and the communication antenna is broken.
But Dave has a simple objective. He’s going to get to the logic core and disconnect HAL.

Summary
Sometimes life came at you with a clenched fist and Ilya had never figured out how to duck.
So here he was, twenty-eight years old, single, dealing with the fallout from injuries given to him by the game he loved, and the second youngest assistant coach in the league to one of the worst teams. Stability was hard to come by, but he was managing.
Then along came Shane Hollander to knock him on his ass, one more time.

Summary
Ilya Rozanov. One of the star players of the NHL, nearly a decade into his career. Center for the Boston Bears, a brutal, fast player known for womanizers tendencies and his bragging habits.
Kip had learned a lot about hockey in the last three years, unable to swipe past anything to do with Scott’s career. Ilya Rozanov was a difficult player to mistake and it was his distinctive build that stood beside him now, glaring down at the buildings as if they’d personally offended him.
“...Hi.” Kip had to give himself credit. Even with the hesitation, the greeting was clear and strong, pushed past the tightness of his shirt on his shoulders, his collar resting against his throat.
“Hello,” said Rozanov, shifting to cross his arms and lean them against the railing. His suit was near to the navy blue Kip was wearing– a popular color, and he was doubly glad Scott had insisted on it. “Is nice out here. Cold.”
Three times that Ilya supported Scott's relationship and one time he defended his own.
