    Summary

    Illuga moved, his body having made the decision even though his conscious mind hadn’t caught up yet. He pushed Flins out of the way and felt the lance stab him in the heart through his back.
    Strange, how that was almost painless. Perhaps his brain simply didn’t catch up yet. Perhaps it simply blocked away the pain. Either way, it was a small mercy. Slamming into the sand was hilariously more painful than the stab itself.

     

    Illuga took up an attack that would have injured Flins, nearly dying in the process because of the Abyssal corruption that took over. Flins refused to let that happen, even if the method to save Illuga wasn’t something he was proud of.

    Summary

    Being possessive was not something Kaveh ever felt comfortable with. He loved and trusted Alhaitham so deeply to even begin to put it into words, yet that didn’t stop the burning sensation taking root in his chest. It wasn’t even about Alhaitham—his demeanor was, more or less, the same as always.

    It was her.

    Because she was standing just a little too close to what was his.

    And, well, he didn’t like it.

    or

    Alhaitham’s apprentice has a crush on him—a fact that made Kaveh lose his mind. Just a little.

    Summary

    When Flins and the Traveler face off against the phantom Rerir at Starsand Shoal with the intention to stop him from regaining his true form, Rerir reveals a devastating repercussion from the way Flins has been keeping a fragment of Rerir's heart in his lantern: through the resonation of the Abyss, and the close proximity to Flins' true form, he has come to see what lies in Flins' heart.

    And since Flins has taken his heart, he's now going to take Flins' in revenge.

    There’s only one place Rerir is going. There’s only one, exact thing that Flins’ heart could lead Rerir directly to.

    Illuga.

    Summary

    Apocalypse: Star Rail might be the worst game Dr. Veritas Ratio has ever played. In what world is murdering half the known universe for no reason even remotely reasonable? What kind of game kills off its most compelling characters just for shock value?

    Also, why is he now in the game — and as a damn NPC, out of all things?


    【 Activation Code: “Moronic developers, moronic game.” It is our sincere wish that during your time, you can fulfill your desires and, in accordance with your wish, transform a piece of moronic work into a magnificent, high-quality, first-rate classic. Bound Role: Unnamed male NPC of the Veritas Prime star system, age 0. 】

    【 Congratulations! Welcome to Apocalypse: Star Rail, version ██! 】


    Well. If these idiot developers can’t take constructive criticism, Veritas might as well construct the criticism himself… by forcibly inserting himself into a plot where he’s never existed.

    Summary

    “It depends entirely on how you look at it, I guess,” Stiles shrugs. “On the one hand, instant healing and the apparently inherited ability to pull off leather at all times. On the other, serious attitude problems and a suspicious disappearance of eyebrows.”

    “Even Derek’s?” Danny snorts, “that’s a lot of eyebrow to lose.”

    “I know,” Stiles agrees. “You should see, it’s so weird. Every time I want to ask him where they go, except he’d totally eat my face off.”

    “There are worse ways to die.”
