Summary
An unchanged winding path takes him to the center of the cemetery. Beside it sit the gloomy headstones with beautiful engravings, names and dates hidden by deep green moss. Reminders of the passage of time, of things missed and things withered.
The yew, placed like a beacon amidst the graves, has grown since he first climbed under the blanket of its branches, and found a resting place inside of its deathly embrace.
Sometimes it's easier to run away than try to explain what is going on inside your head.

Summary
Mas por que aqui, em um lugar onde o céu era sempre vermelho, a violência não tinha precedentes nem regras, um gato não podia ter consciência?
Em um lugar onde várias criaturas se matavam constantemente, KeeKee não podia falar? Por quê?
Assim como Razzle e Dazzle — que a perseguiam onde quer que fosse no grande hotel, esperando para servi-la e ajudá-la —, também não podiam pronunciar uma só palavra. Mas eles a entendiam. Foram os seres que mais a fizeram sorrir nos últimos dias, tão gentis e prestativos.
Era tão… injusto.

Summary
There's 1 in 70,000 people on the planet who have the gene needed to survive the Hail Mary's expedition. In that limited pool, 1 in maybe 1000 had the necessary skills needed for the mission — more dire still, even less people were willing to volunteer for what is essentially a suicide mission.
When an explosion killed not only their science officers but also their engineers, Eva Stratt makes the tough decision to put 2 people on the spacecraft that no one was expecting to be even be candidates.
One is a middle-school science teacher.
One is a convicted eco terrorist.

Summary
I am slowly forgetting what your smiling face looks like, but whenever I gaze upon the cherry blossom trees in full bloom, I remember how you were the epitome of springtime.
The blossoms came back every year without his permission.
That was the thing about the cherry blossom trees. They did not ask whether you were ready. They did not consider that a person might have spent the better part of the cold months constructing something careful inside himself, some reasonable architecture of moving on, only to have it detonated in the space of a single afternoon. They just bloomed. The petals fell. And Sakuya would be standing under a tree somewhere, on his way to work or to the convenience store or anywhere else that was supposed to be ordinary, and the pink of it would catch him, and he would think of one name.
"…Ryo."
Not the whole thought. Just the name. Just that.

Summary
He wanted to say something profound or encouraging, or hunt down Kurt Gödel for her. The only unprovable truth on his mind right now was “I think I’ve just fallen in love with you”, but he was smart enough not to say that. He walked toward her until he stood directly in front of her.
“You’re not stupid. Thank you for coming after me to check on me tonight. Despite what I said before I left, I don’t know whether I would have had it in me to go back inside on my own to talk to you again.”
He didn’t know what would come after tonight. But he was absolutely certain that he wanted this moment to be a part of his life.

Summary
Zeitnot (literally “need of time”) - in chess, a situation where a player is pressured for time, unable to properly consider next moves, thus ending up at a strategic disadvantage.
A young man and an avid reader of Ascendance of a Bookworm unexpectedly finds himself in Yurgenschmidt, albeit in a different place and in a different time. Not even his noble status and foreknowledge would make it easy for him to survive the storm to come, and being in a child's body certainly doesn't help.

Summary
She always knew she tended to make dumb decisions, but this one really takes the cake.
An abandoned office building. An old headset. Maybe it was the curiosity of what VR project was left running for so long. Maybe it was the fact that she didn't want to think about how her life sucked. She just wanted a break.
Except now she's stuck in some surreal hell where nothing has meaning, and they all dance to the whims of an AI Princess. It's a new kind of horror show every day, and she's clawing at the walls and her mind for a way out.
Kasane Teto's the name she was given, and she's really just trying to get by. Is it even possible to be happy in a world where nothing matters? She doesn't think so, but she marches on- if only not to wind up a dark, decrepit basement all alone and forgotten.

Summary
There are girls who know how to be loved correctly.
Then there are girls like her.
Girls who turn attachment into religion. Girls who romanticize pain before they even understand it. Girls who mistake being noticed for being chosen.
This is not a love story.
It is a story about loneliness. About almosts. About emotional hunger so deep it begins reshaping the architecture of a person from the inside out.
And somewhere in the middle of all that
a boy touches her gently enough to ruin her.- Language:
