Summary
Augmented human C4-621, callsign Raven triggers coral release for the 57th time.
Once again he is sent back to the beginning, but this time he keeps his memories and gear.
Now Raven must carve a new path to escape the cycle (and maybe punch Mr Barrack Iguana for the umpteenth time).
G5 Iguazu rembers everything too, the hundreds of defeats by 621 and the failures that lead to them.
What will he do differently this time.
Unfortunatly there are bigger forces at work, this time all the missions have changed for the worse, new enimies have arisen, and new faces appear from cracks in the timeline.
Can Raven escape the never ending cycle of torment, or will the cycles finally break him.
Follows multiple characters and POVs, plus we get daily life for the different factions.
Also Raven's a yandere and Allmind is here for some reason.
Builds will be posted on notes at the end of each chapter.

a dead dog should know (a dead man should know) by orbitalknight

Summary
Despite being an improvement from the First through Third Generations, Fourth Generation human augmentation is known for its general unreliability and numerous drawbacks: most notably emotional reticence, physical deformity or weakness, and a diminished sense of self.
Few have given thoughtful attention to one way in which the fourth generation exceeds all others: a capacity, literally and figuratively, to allow for collaborative interfacing with conscious non-human entities.
For obvious reasons, the details of this particular trait have not been studied, and therefore cannot be predicted.

Crossing the Rubicon by Seiji_The_Ice_Drake

Summary
The phrase "crossing the Rubicon" is an idiom that means "passing a point of no return". Its meaning comes from allusion to the crossing of the river Rubicon by Julius Caesar in early January 49 BC.
A new wormhole has stabilized, meaning it's time for Sys-Zero, Char and Eveline, the current ace pilot of GEARS University and acting hero, to once again ready to go on the chase for the thief Jemini to retrieve more of the weapon parts she had stolen. Unfortunately for the three of them, the world beyond the wormhole is plagued by a war, and not the kind Sys-Zero and Eveline are used to. A war between corporations and a liberation front over a unique energy source known as Coral, with mercenaries, addicts and a planetary border patrol all taking part in the fight.
Going up against clearly evil alien invaders is one thing. Fighting an all human war, with human emotions and complexities is another.

Summary
Recent threads on the Vespertine Halls forum, an in-universe website dedicated to Arquebus Vesper shipping, kinning, and stanning.
A combination of Reddit, Tumblr, and 4chan at their worst.
CW’s: R-slur, F-slur, a bunch of other slurs, racism, ableism, sexism, general terminally online rancidity, general terribleness, corporate bootlicking/capitalism/anti-communism. Written from experience, unfortunately. It should go without saying that the author does not support any of the views contained therein.

Defend the Old Space port doesn't go as planned and Raven has an epiphany

Summary
Raven's the new and mysterious delivery driver in town and he’s about to make a lot of people’s lives more complicated (and/or miserable) - especially for Rusty, a barista in the Arquebus building’s cafe. What’s a guy to do? Probably nothing smart or wise.
Otherwise known as: Coffeeshop au romance but surprise it's actually also about high stakes street racing.

Summary
North of the equator, PCA personnel get roasted on a spit.
South of the equator, Rubiconian babies get their skulls crushed.
(Granted, that second one is a wee bit of embellishment on King's part.)
Now, the Cross-Balam-Arquebus AC Force plan on executing a dual operation at a PCA stronghold in Central Belius. Just so happens that Nile will be running into Chartreuse right after the aforementioned napalm bombing at a completely separate PCA base. All the while V.IV Rusty and G5 Iguazu get to meet each other for the first time, and C4-621 gets to watch their affable, cooperative personalities mingle together from a very safe distance, I assure you.
Whatever this ends up being, Walter knows, it's all just marketing.

Summary
Snippets that couldn’t be worked into the main story but I didn’t want to throw away, alternate versions of events, pre- and post-canon shorts, and/or drabbles that I needed to get out of my head. Several of these could probably fit into anyone’s canon, really.
See each chapter’s summary for details. Anything that merits a content warning but I still want to post will go into another work.
Latest update: O’Keeffe learns that Freud’s competitive streak extends outside the cockpit. Set after The Taste of Victory (chapter 16).

Summary
Raven was a gen 4 the same as him, piloted an AC he’d fought simulations against hundreds of times, but Iguazu still couldn’t figure out why Raven kept beating him. However, tired of pointless battles against an opponent he knows will always lose, Raven decides to reveal his edge.
Or Raven and Iguazu can’t fix each other but they sure can make themselves worse.

Summary
Doomed to fail, the relationship between the Handler and the Redgun commander takes many forms: some lighthearted, some intense, and some strained. Either way, this downward spiral is well-versed in ups and downs.

Summary
The problem with the Kardashev scale of civilization advancement is that it is dreadfully tedious to ascend each rung of the ladder. To even reach Class 1 you need to blanket every desert in solar panels, split the atom in every ounce of uranium, cover every coastline in turbines, and fuse every gram of deuterium. To reach Class 2, you need to disassemble entire planets just to get enough mass to fill the lower orbits of your home star with a titanic swarm of solar satellites.
If only there was a shortcut. A substance that you could just dig out of the ground. Wouldn't that be grand? Imagine if the oil of the North Sea burned as energetically as deuterium-helium-3 fusion, could advance computing in ways that put the invention of the semiconductor to shame, and made you telepathic if you injected it into your brain. Are you imagining it?
Now you have an inkling of what Coral is. Frank Herbert, eat your heart out.

Summary
Before reawakening, 621 remembers the first time they asked Rusty if there would ever be peace on Rubicon. He looked so tired, and turned away as he sighed. "Buddy. We keep doing what we can, but... I don't think Rubicon will be peaceful anytime soon. Not in a thousand years. Heh... maybe in two-thousand though."
And 621 remembered thinking to themself, [Approximately 1,760 years remaining]
