Summary
Usually his dreams aren't so… complete. Usually they're fragmented, skipping forwards and backwards through time, highlighting the most traumatizing and inhumane moments of their stay.
But sometimes, when Zack least expects it, he'll dream a memory in perfect detail, just as it happened, and as though it were happening again.

Summary
Riku had come home. At least in the sense of returning to the place of his birth and upbringing. But he returned as an intruder. A specter, dark as the shadows he wandered, that blurred an otherwise happy scene. Just like in so many of those ghost stories he would show Riku as a child.
Before speaking to Xion on the play island, Riku goes on a small tour of the home he left behind, and encounters some of the people he left behind as well.

Summary
Surely this couldn’t be happening. Had Sora… given up? Sora, whose heart opened its doors to all in need of shelter, who laughed while slaying hordes of monsters? Sora, who dragged Riku bodily out of the darkness and into his light? Sora, who forgave him for everything he’d done without a second thought?
Riku reunites with Sora, but he never thought that in the time it had taken him to get there, Sora may have already accepted his fate. KHIV. Illustrated by yours truly.

Summary
Ikumi slams on the breaks, sending everything in the back seats tumbling to the floor. She rolls down the window, leaning out to see Ichigo squinting through her headlights.
“Oi!” she calls to him. “What the hell happened?
Ichigo’s panting heavily, leaning over with his hands on his knees. He doesn’t answer, but when he looks up, his face is thrown into harsh relief by the fluorescents. It’s an expression Ikumi’s never seen on anyone younger than forty.

Summary
“Rex…?” The name barely escapes Shulk’s mouth. Rex smiles weakly, though it seems to pain him. Shulk, for the first time, notices the smear of red covering his eye, so dark it nearly shines black. There’s an odd divot where his eye should be. “You’re hurt…”
He tries to reach out, but nothing happens.

Summary
My pride stings a little at being so underestimated by a species that couldn’t even outrun a particularly determined turtle if their life depended on it. Look, I’m no Sha’Carri Richardson, but I’m pretty proud of my seven-minute mile. I worked hard for it. I haven’t been able to handle myself like this since I was... well, since I left Earth.
“Y’know what? Let’s settle this once and for all. I could use an endurance test anyway. Good for my cardio.”
Dr. Bones perks up. “You’ll do a demonstration?”
“Absolutely. Give me two rest days and a warmup, then I’ll show you what the average human athlete can do.”
-----
AKA, Grace doesn't consider himself much of an athlete, but he's no slouch either. And he's got the physical prowess of his whole species to represent!
The xenobiology team, on the other hand, is horrified to learn what a 'persistence hunter' is.
