Summary
The old cobblestone alley is almost as familiar to Hob as the back of his own hands, but the stones are slick with rain and blood, and lit only by the crack of light coming from the pub’s side door.
This was not how Hob had thought the night would go when the man first approached him at the bar, all bright teeth, dark sunglasses, and American confidence.Series

“Hi.” She says, breathlessly.
“Hello yourself” He replies, smiling.
“So is *this* why you bought me this?”
“I… well, yes.”
“Why you, and Ozpin, bought me this?”
Oscar blinks, and suddenly Ozpin is there shifting his posture uncomfortably.an au of an au of an au

Summary
Bato stands at the prow of an earth kingdom trading vessel, leaning forward like somehow it will make the boat move faster. He feels someone come up behind him, and a hand gently sets upon his lower back.
“We’ll be there soon,” Hakoda says, voice only just loud enough for Bato to hear over the wind.
“Soon can’t come soon enough.”

Standard Issue Type-92 Handgun by FallingNarwhals

Summary
I very carefully set the gun near the xenonite barrier. “Need a word. Fast moving projectile launcher. This is an object that can make small objects go very fast.”
Rocky gets close to the barrier and seems to be inspecting it with his sonar. “Unfamiliar with concept. How fast can objects move with launcher, question?”
“An object is made for the launcher. Cannot be any object. We call objects ‘bullets.’ We call launcher ‘gun.’ It uses gunpowder to make a small explosion, which is powder made from sulfur, potassium nitrate, and charcoal- Carbon. In high oxygen environments this creates a small explosion that propels the bullet forward at 100 meters a second.”
Rocky scurries back. I would too, but I have the business end facing away from me and the xenonite barrier. “Are objects in this launcher, question?”
“Yes, I do not know how to take them out.” I point to the end of the gun that houses the bullets. “In Earth’s atmosphere, they would be safe to remove. But in a high oxygen environment like the Hail Mary, I’m afraid of causing a spark that would make the bullets fire anyway.”

Summary
Grace is too late rescuing Rocky. When he finds the Blip-A again, Rocky is already gone, so Grace does the only thing he can think of, and he takes Taumeoba-82.5 to Erid himself. If he can't save Rocky, well, he might as well make sure his death wasn't in vain.
He's sick, starving, and has no Eridian native to introduce him, but he's going to save Rocky's planet no matter what. After that... he supposes all that's left is for him to die. He's nearly out of food and Yao's gun is still tucked away safely in the Hail Mary's storage.
Fortunately for him, Adrian doesn't plan on letting their mate's best friend die so easily.- Language:
