Summary
In the aftermath of a peaceful revolution, Detective Gavin Reed has to adjust when it comes to his work relations. The assholish version of Anderson's android gets assigned as his new partner. Not only that, but an assholish android who deems it necessary to not only question Gavin's professionalism but also invades his personal life. Ironically, the deviant may have a better grasp of living than Gavin Reed does.
What is there to say when you realize the machines you mistreated are no more a monster than you are?
------------------------------------
The RK900 thought this would be a simple task. Prove his invaluableness to the precinct, solve cases, and move up as quickly as possible. Annoying his partner was just a treat on top of an already perfect plan. But Gavin Reed may be the one mystery Nines can't solve. Especially when it turns out that the detective and the android may have more in common than he initially thought.
What do you do when your partner turns out to be something more than human or android altogether?

Summary
So, with cautious optimism, Caitlyn drafted a letter and sent it through the pneumatic tube connecting their homes. She didn't expect a timely response—truthfully, she didn't expect one at all—but surprisingly, only half an hour later, a canister shot back with a dull thump. Caitlyn carefully extracted the paper, squinting at the scribbled words:
DON’T WORRY ABOUT IT!
A crudely drawn smiley face with a tongue sticking out accompanied the message. Caitlyn groaned inwardly; those four casual words told her far more than Jinx likely intended. If Jinx was trying to deter her curiosity, then something was indeed going on—and that was the worst possible reassurance she could've received.
//
Something is going down in the Undercity, and Caitlyn needs to get to the bottom of it.

Summary
Delilah Morgan is a forensic pathologist working for the DPGC, beginning the autopsy of the latest victim of the serial killer known as the Reaper, the man who has been terrorizing Gotham city, when she is attacked by him.
It was that night that she encountered true fear ── death itself and its faithful companion ── and survived to tell the tale. Now, she recognized the rot of humanity, as broken as she was, and in a way, identified with it. There was a rooted evil there, rooted in her, something that cried out for justice and needed freedom as much as their corrupted souls could bear, yet something blocked her mind.
In the quest to uncover the true identity of the Reaper and put an end to the series of extended murders, Morgan finds an unlikely ally in billionaire Bruce Wayne. Both are obsessed with the case, both are willing to do anything to reach the end of the investigation, and both would risk everything they had for it.
And that's what brought them together.

Summary
The woman’s lips were still warm when he crawled his way over to her broken body. He cradled her head in his hands, sharply averting his eyes from anything but her face. Blood trickled out of her nose steadily, dripping quietly on the ground next to her ear. Her eyes were unmoving, staring at something much farther than he could see.
or: there are universes where things begin and end rather poorly. tragically. that's not the case in every timeline. not in this one.

Summary
"The human, too human way Chuuya made him feel, not even death could change that.
The thing they had, it was written in every word he spelled in tears and ink. He was in every drop of poison he drank. He was in every brothel he visited, every mouth he kissed. He was everywhere and nowhere at once. Always too far away, unreachable for those cold hands of his, even when he was right there, sleeping next to him.
Three cigarettes in his ashtray, a worn-out leather jacket and some slips stained with blood. That was all there was left of Chuuya.
Pas trop, but not nearly enough either."
In which Chuuya is a fleeting bohemian dream and Dazai is an artist searching for his muse.
And they’re both liars. -
