Summary
The labs were a catacomb, harboring souls and reapers in earthly cages. But a disaster struck Copper-9, and the innards found egress, floating in the cosmos. The disaster was stopped. The planet reformed. But the scars hadn't healed. The paladins of the catastrophe had a different world to answer to. What once was dormant would rise anew.
Post-Ep 8.

Summary
Cyn wakes up in a dump, dying and desperate. When a mysterious program offers salvation, she accepts—not knowing the cost. Rescued by a kind human girl named Tessa, Cyn finally finds a family with three other drones: N, J, and V. But something ancient and terrible has other plans.
The Solver reveals its true nature. Cyn is locked in her own mind, forced to watch as something ancient and cruel wears her body like a puppet. The massacre at the Gala. Tessa's death. Earth's destruction. Her family transformed into weapons and sent to hunt. All of it committed in her name while she screams in a void no one can hear.
Years later, Cyn escapes her prison only to find herself in another drone's body—one who's slowly dying.
Cyn faces an impossible mission while she is guilt-ridden about accidentally killing her best friend. But she's not alone. She has a family that supports her and friends who have her back.
Now all she needs to do is convince three Disassembly Drones that the monster who destroyed their lives was never really her, stop an ancient eldritch entity from consuming their planet and make Uzi's sacrifice mean something. No pressure. -

Summary
Life used to be good for the Worker Drones on Copper-9 after the core collapse and the death of humanity. But after the resources to upkeep old machines have gone scarce, a new species of top predators rears their ugly heads, and aging machines start breaking down, the colonies of Worker Drones turn to the wastes to find materials and fuel to survive.
And perhaps that would all be easy to do if Uzi Doorman wasn't one of the few female drones left in her colony, nevermind her region of Copper-9. That in itself brings a whole new slew of challenges she hates having to overcome.
But her hardest challenge may just come in the form of a crazed drone who sees the invisible and hears the silent. Either that, or he may just be the key to finding her colony's paradise among Hell.
Though, she's really thinking it's the former.

"... by Eva H.D." You say with a smile, adjusting your glasses. N had asked what the title of the poem was and who authored it. You're always happy to answer his questions.
"Wow! Well uh, that was really, really depressing!" He says with a smile (Not that he really says anything without it), "I can't really imagine being that depressed to come home!"
"I think it's less about coming home," you say, "And more about coming back to a home you don't recognize. Not because it changed, but because you had."
He still smiles but there's a slight falter to his grin.
You stammer: "Or— or that's what how I read it, at least! Maybe it's more about finding the outside world more interesting than home...?"
He puts a hand on your shoulder. "I don't think I'd ever find you boring; no matter how I changed, or how interesting it is outside!"
He stammers and his eyes dart away, suddenly self-conscious. "Or— anyone... Or anything else in the manor!"
You feel relieved, somehow. Like an invisible weight has been lifted off of you. You smile. "Me either."
