Summary
Aloy hasn't actually ridden the Bristleback in days. It's too easy to nod off while the machine does all the steering. After the second time she woke up halfway to the ground, a scream caught between her teeth at the utter certainty that she was falling falling falling from the cliff at the Proving, Rost looking down on her as fire burst around him– yeah, Aloy prefers to walk alongside.
-
Or: Since the Base emptied out, all of her friends and allies going their separate ways to rally the tribes to the cause, Aloy can't sleep without being haunted by nightmares. So she stops sleeping. Problem solved!Beta, Zo, and Erend, when they figure it out, have a lot of opinions about this.

Summary
"Being with Varl…He makes me forget somehow, that it’s possible to run out of time. I’m doing everything I can, but I still might lose the chance to tell him.”
Zo's regret washes over Aloy like the ocean waves she’s only recently learned the deceptive strength of. There’s a moment where she’s suddenly underwater, holding her breath against the force, the press of knowing that she’s making the same mistake, but not knowing how to stop.

Summary
Gaia’s voice comes over the intercom. “Aloy’s focus has been compromised. I believe she is being shown auditory and visual simulations to disorient and distress her.” A sharp gasp from Aloy interrupts as she locks eyes on nothing across the room and starts straining against Erend to reach her bow. Gaia continues, calm as ever, “Aloy should still be able to hear you, but you are competing for her attention against any perceived threats. I’ve called Beta upstairs to assist.”
-
Or: The Zeniths hack Aloy's Focus, to render her disoriented and vulnerable enough to easily capture. Just their luck that Aloy happens to be close enough to base when the signal connects that the program's rudimentary AI centers the simulated dangers there for maximum distress, leading Aloy inside. -

Summary
It seems like there should be a very neat line, at least for humans, between dead and not dead, but I’ve seen enough messy half-alive humans to know that there is no such clear distinction. I’ve seen bodies that were still breathing despite missing part of their heads, bodies that weren’t breathing despite their owners being fully conscious. I wouldn’t call either option alive. I wouldn’t call either option dead, either.
For a machine intelligence, the border is even blurrier. It's hard to say which side of it I will stand on when they're through with me.

Summary
“Miaomiao.”
She was here for Fu Zhou’s book signing. Who would know her here?
Long hair, a flash of a gold ribbon, the curve of a hesitant smile. A name: Ziqi. This name, on the tip of her tongue when she heard her own being called. This name sounded like a promise, like something to be cherished.
She froze, raising her eyes to make contact with his. This man’s hair was short, wire glasses framed his eyes, and instead of an ancient costume, he wore jeans and a soft-looking, cream jacket.

Summary
At length, K says, “I promise, I wasn’t trying to ‘there’s only one bed’ you, when you offered to let us sleep here.” The words get muffled into Evan’s hoodie, and for a split second, Evan has a flash of what it must feel like to be K, a tugging, cooing urge at how soft the moment is. He wants to swallow it whole, to live in it forever. “I know I’ve done it on purpose before,” K adds in a mumble, “but this time I swear it wasn’t.”

Summary
He turned from her, footsteps heavy on the floor. The plates of his metal knocked against one another like snapping jaws. Sansa was thinking a very many things at once - still clutching the doll from her father, still staring with desperate wonder at the Hound - and then, as the door creaked open, she found her voice.
“Take me with you.”
