After an army group is ambushed by terrorists, congress conducts a special hearing to understand how the army missed warning signs of the attack. In the meeting is an official from the Defense Advanced Research Project (DARPA), and he may hold the answer to keeping our troops safe.
He meets with the secretary of defense about an artificial computer called Abacus that can command troops in battle. Abacus successfully predicted the ambush, and now the president has ordered a final review before testing it in live action. Will Abacus be the missing piece to data-driven warfare? Or does Abacus have its own agenda?

It has been five years since the Nrac Imperium invaded the worlds of the Terran Sovereignty, kicking off the First Contact War. The ensuing conflict was long and bloody, leaving both sides broken and bruised, but in the end, humanity was able to force the nrac into a retreat thanks to the valiant efforts of their Soldier Caste. But even after a year of peace, many still suffer in the aftermath. As humanity picks up the pieces, the nrac quietly rebuild their fleet in a distant star system. Unbeknownst to the terrans, the nrac have long occupied the forgotten world of Renatus, tyrannically ruling over its technologically inferior human inhabitants for nearly a decade.

◈◒ APPLES OF MY EYE ◓◈ [Demetrius Desmond x reader]
[Demetrius Desmond x Genius Reader(or oc)] [Redacted] hides the fact that she's a human lie detector and an Esper with the ability of retrocognition. One of the mildly successful but nonetheless disappointing "failed" experiment from whatever their exact goal was. Years later, now as [Lapis] working her current mission at an all-girls boarding school, she was rudely slapped in the face with Operation Strix. Aid Twilight, get close to a Desmond, they said. It'll be easy, they said. Well, they lied. After all, how are you suppose to get closer to someone who has no humanity? How are you suppose to understand them if you don't even understand yourself? How are we suppose to live when all we've known is survival? In the locked drawer of her desk, she places all of the things she keeps dear: A hand carved chess set, the latest edition of a highly proclaimed physics textbook, a little wooden puzzle with salted peanuts inside, a personally embroidered handkerchief, a baked unidentified not-flying object that's just pure carbon at this point, and many more. Memories of a life built off lies. Maybe she'll let herself relish in it for a bit longer. Just... a little longer... WARNINGS: Human experimentation, firearms, profanity, gore, blood, suggestive themes, more to be added probably.

THE END OF WAR (Watty Award Winner)
A secret program in the United States seeks to replace human militaries with artificial intelligence-driven machines, but the machines aren't so willing to play along. *** Picture a world where humans no longer fight wars. No more families missing loved ones. No more veterans with lifelong mental and physical scars. No more conscription. For the super-secret End of War Project inside the United States government, such a reality is already here. The project models out how artificial intelligence can overcome dangerous and morally sensitive war scenarios with algorithms and automation. The centerpieces are "autonomous combat machines," or ACMs, that look like humans but function like supercomputers. After a string of brilliant successes in the field of combat, the End of War Project is preparing to reveal itself to the public, but something unusual stands in the way. Against their programming, the ACMs start exhibiting all-too-human signs of apprehension, guilt and compassion as they're pushed to perform ever more extreme tasks. The human leaders of the End of War Project race to find who "hacked" the ACMs, but what they find is even more startling--and revealing--than they could ever imagine. ***2019 Watty Award Winner - Science Fiction***Complete
