Summary
Stede and Ed's relationship ended months ago, but Stede hasn't been able to let it go. He's amazed when Ed agrees to participate in The Ex-House with him, sharing a tiny house on live television for six weeks to win the grand prize.
“Hello, Edward!” he says, forcing brightness. Remembers to look at his face - two seconds at a time is perfectly acceptable, look at the face, not directly into the eyes - tries to remember to turn his lips up into a friendly smile. Behind Ed, the door whooshes closed again and leaves them in silence.
Ed’s fully clad in leather, which is always a good look for him. Slight hint of eyeliner. One arm bare, showing off the winding snake tattooed into his skin. Beard trimmed short. Hair up, as well, properly styled. Small silver dagger earring dangling from one ear.
He looks unapproachably hot. The kind of guy that would skim over Stede without a second glance. The kind of guy that would sniff out Stede’s oddness in a second and push Stede down as a way to lift himself up. There are probably people watching on their televisions right now, wondering how the hell the two people in this room were ever together in the first place.

Summary
Ed had an idea. It was a little weird, and probably not the best idea for a very well-regarded artist who was at the whim of shareholders and a board, but. If he was going out, he might as well go out with a bang.
He straightened up the stack of flyers, grabbed one of his staple guns out of his workshop drawer, and set out down the street. He started in the immediate radius of the Walmart, tacking flyers up to light posts and bulletin boards.

(This is absolutely not as absurd as it sounds, but it's still pretty absurd.)

Summary
SecUnit finds itself in charge of one of Dr. Mensah's children, and on the run. Luckily, it's good at its job. Unluckily, it has to hang out with a human adolescent. (It can handle the people trying to kill it. It's the babysitting thing that's terrifying.)

Summary
“I can always play poker,” Hollander says, far slower than he’d recited the stats. “What are you playing?”
“Durak,” Ilya says when the others just look expectantly at him.
After a beat, Hollander seems to muster up his courage. “Can I join?”
Or: Five times people learn the still waters of one Shane Hollander hide a veritable card shark, and one time Ilya gets to see a different side.
