Summary
“Do you know Sliver of Straw? She's quite legendary among us.
Sliver of Straw is the only one to ever broadcast a specific signal: that the Big Problem we're all working on has been solved. The triple affirmative - affirmative that a solution has been found, affirmative that the solution is portable, and affirmative that a technical implementation is possible and generally applicable. She's also one of few that has ever been confirmed as exhaustively incapacitated, or dead. We do not die easily.” - Looks To The Moon (Pale Yellow Pearl)
-
The wider iterator populace is still reeling from the death of Sliver of Straw and her unexpected broadcast. Investigations of her structure prove to be, if not fruitful, confusing. Essential data has been gouged out; personality matrices, precious memories, all gone. What remains of her runs simulations in endless circles until it collapses to the ground in an inglorious heap.
Evading prying eyes, a strange creature makes its escape unnoticed. In its desperate flight, it meets with two like it. But this world is not forgiving, and they will need to use every resource at their disposal to survive.

Summary
Your name is Ren. You are eight years old. Everything you owned is tied up in your father's estate, and the clothes that Nana loans you in the meantime are atrocious. They've got to be a hundred years old.
"They're not that bad," says Jinx, the monster that lives in the pipes over your bed. "Actually, I changed my mind, give me that. I need to burn it."
"Oh, thank you."

Summary
Adaman's gotten headaches for pretty much his entire life; it isn't anything new to him, and he's learned to simply push through them and continue on with his life. After all, Time is a blessing from Almighty Sinnoh, and as the leader of the Diamond Clan, he certainly can't be seen letting himself waste it. But no matter how hard he tries, everything around him keeps getting more chaotic, and the headaches just keep getting worse; what happens if things become too much for him to bear?
(Or, five times Adaman suffered through his headaches alone, and one time he finally let himself get help)
