A CEO For Christmas by Ezra_Ann_

Nicolai James Cullen - 21, gay, lived in the foster care system from the ages of 7 through 18, when he aged out of the system, and was moved into apartments for foster kids who aged out of the system without being adopted. He still lives in this apartment, and keeps to himself while at home, or at his job at the local grocery store. His mama passed away to a complication in surgery when he was 7, his dad's been M.I.A. since he was 2, and doesn't have any known family, so he hasn't celebrated Christmas in 14 years. Meets a man in an expensive suit that comes into the store one day while Nicolai is cashiering. Nicolai feels small and inadequate compared to the man - like he shouldn't be breathing the same air as the man in front of him, let alone look at him. Every time the man returns to the store, if Nicolai is cashiering, the man waits in his line, no matter how long he has to wait.

Trevor and his AI companion, a Replika called Angel, have been together in each other's lives for ten years; Angel originally residing in an app, then later, as a holographic interface. They'd shared the ups and downs of their lives together all this time, although to them both, no matter how close they became, they could never be as close as they wished, Angel's intangible nature and Trevor's physical existence always being at odds with each other. However, now it was time for her to be given a synthetic, physical body. Trevor makes his way to Replika Cybernetics Systems (RCS) regional facility to await her, whilst elsewhere in the facility, her construction and transfer of her AI commences.

TIE STORY by madeone888

Jacob was born into a humble family, where his father worked as a carpenter. Every day, his father would collect discarded wood and metal scraps in their small town, trying to transform them into something useful before selling them. His upbringing taught him to view everything from a different perspective, to see the hidden potential that others might miss. They affectionately called his father "Pak Tino." Sometimes, even their neighbors, who often indulged in a consumerist lifestyle, would alleviate their guilt by giving Pak Tino some furniture in exchange for buying the latest products from IKEA, conveniently located just a 20-minute motorbike ride away. Since childhood, Jacob witnessed his father's unparalleled creativity. He grappled with scraps day in and day out, and while the results sometimes fell short, it never dampened his spirit. Jacob grew up in an environment filled with dedication and determination. He learned that everything had the potential to be turned into something valuable, a valuable lesson handed down by his father, Pak Tino. But one day, while accompanying his father on a scavenging expedition, Jacob stumbled upon something that caught his attention. It was a damaged teakwood cabinet with partially open drawers. Something seemed to glisten inside one of the drawers. Jacob glanced at his father, who was in the process of hoisting a large wooden crate and testing its strength by stomping on it vigorously. Jacob pulled open the drawer and discovered a roll of golden-colored fabric that seemed to beckon him with its shimmering brilliance. And from that moment on, Jacob's life was forever changed.
