Summary
Safety is a funny word to Uzi Doorman. Sure, she knew safety was supposed to mean being careful and staying out of danger... but whoever thought that word applied in the real world must have been a liar. True safety and peace was something her people had never known. The core collapse killed all of the humans responsible for working her parents' generation like slaves, but the collapse gave way to an eternal winter and infighting over limited resources necessary to survive. That was before the vampiric demons came from the sky on bladed wings to slaughter everyone left alive in that godforsaken frozen wasteland.
Forced to take shelter in the crumbling remains of the former city, Uzi's colony works to fortify their homes and modify their own bodies to increase their chances of survival against not only the constant threat of the murder drones but also attacks from their fellow worker drone colonies who are just as desperate for supplies to survive the harsh times. Locked in an eternal stalemate with the outside forces of nature and dronekind, Uzi thinks it's going to take one hell of an inciting incident to tip the balance.
She just didn't know how much of it was going to come from her own internal struggles.

Summary
Uzi is an outcast among the worker drones in her colony— a rebellious, headstrong teen deemed as a freak. A priority to no one, not even her own father. So, it honestly shouldn't have surprised her when he allowed a sketchy group of worker drones from outside to take her in exchange for supplies. She's taken away from the only home she's ever known— taken to a place where she's met with a fate worse than death.
Experimentation.
Uzi is used, abused, and turned into a glorified disassembly drone— her very being stolen from her. Lost in a sea of hunger and trauma, will she ever learn to trust again?
OR; Our girl is put through the wringer when her father sells her off to be experimented on and pretty much turned into a stronger disassembly drone for “protection purposes.” Follow her trauma-filled, kind-of-terrifying journey!

Summary
Before, it was just protocol. A directive— a job. The Worker Drone scraps surrounding him were just that: empty scraps, oil-less. But now?…All he could see were corpses.
A story of choices and how those choices define us.

Summary
Suppression.
The conscious inhibition and ignoring of impulses, desires, or feelings that are deemed unacceptable.
Or:
With the universe saved and absolute solver destroyed, Uzi, N, and V, can live a normal life within the Copper-Nine colony. It's a good thing that nobody has feelings for anyone, and moving on will be easy.
...Right?
