It wasn't every day that one handled blood that was this dangerous. Sure, Abby knew how to take universal precautions for disease or anything hinky that might come from direct contact with another person's blood, but this was a step up from all that. At least ( Read more... )

Val's back burned with the fury of Mabry's lashes but the rest of her was freezing. Lying facedown on the backseat of her mother's car, she was dimly aware of Luis talking to her from the driver's seat. She shivered. Ravus's heart was the only thing she could see when she opened her eyes, and all she could think was go faster, go fasterShe was in a ( Read more... )

The workshop idea had been quietly blipping in and out of Glitch's focus ever since he found his old lab in the Northern Island. Very quickly he'd realized the space was nearly intolerable, that filled as it was with half-remembered ghosts and secrets which remained beyond his grasp there was no way he'd be able to work there ( Read more... )

Most times after he's woken up from an episode (episode is the best word he can think of to describe it - like a seizure, only instead of biting your tongue there's immeasurable collateral damage), Bruce slept for a few days straight. Even though he couldn't remember most of what had happened and he never had a mark on him afterward, it was still ( Read more... )

Abby stumbled into her lab, closing the door with her foot before letting out a long sob of pain. God, she'd been holding that in since the alley, terrified that the green beast would hear her and come back. She fell against the wall, gasping as her shoulder was jarred. It was dislocated. She knew the practical ways to put it back in place, but ( Read more... )
