    Summary

    A simple expedition to collect scraps from the city goes haywire when a freak storm rushes in without warning. Left dangerously low on supplies, Uzi looks for whatever she can to charge herself long enough to get home. Who cares if the weird glowing canister looks like the nanites the Murder Drones use? It's high in nutrition and it doesn't say it can hurt her!

    (Otherwise known as Uzi making a very poor decision and having to deal with the consequences)

    Summary

    On the world of Praxis Quartus, a planetary governor panics at the knowledge that a new planet has suddenly materialized within his solar system.

    Within the Praxis system, a disgraced inquisitor has a near heart attack at what he believes to be an incursion of Men of Iron.

    And on Copper 9, at the sight of the sky turning purple and the sun being replaced by another much dimmer one, Uzi cannot help but scream "I HATE IT HEEEEEEERE!"

    Summary

    Serial Designation Z. Whoever she is, she’d showed up unannounced, bled everywhere, and then disappeared into the wastes with N. What the fuck could her deal possibly be? V’s brow furrows. Apparent serious injuries aside, she’d led N away from the spire right as dawn approached. V doesn’t really have a reason to think this…after all, how could this possibly be the case, but…could it be Z isn’t an ally?
    ...

    Summary

    The claws at the end of one of the murder drone’s arms retract, replaced with a single long blade that reads very clearly to Uzi as a weapon designed for decapitation. She scrambles for insults to throw or distractions to find. She can’t be killed yet, not yet. She’s taking this thing down with her. She continues to drag herself backward toward her gun, half-buried in a snowdrift, and blurts, “W-Well, that’s boring! Just going to off me just like that? I-I thought murder drones liked to play with their food more.”
    ...
    [In which N damages Uzi far worse when she first snuck into the murder drones' lair, and reboots to a much more distressing scene.]

    Summary

    When two drones love each other very much, they share their code and put into an untrained neutral network and start a happy family...so what happens when a certain disassembly drone tries to take the opportunity to do the same, only to have it snatched away from her and that happiness is tossed to an undeserving toaster of a drone?
