Summary
J had explained it to her, once. “Love the job, and you’ll never work a day in your life.”
“Which actually means,” Uzi had replied, “we’re supposed to do the company’s bidding and they don’t even pay us?”
“No, the job is its own compensation.” J’s claws were still wet and glimmering at her hips. She smirked. “It’s a dying wage.”
Uzi groaned, but she’d already been subcontracted—too late for second thoughts when her hands were just as black with oil. She licked her fingers, fighting a smile.
Things were working out with J—doing the bad guys’ bidding wasn’t so bad, really. Especially when, unlike the ‘good guys’, they gave it this kind of passion. J and Uzi had that much in common, at least.
Shame that passion is just an excuse for corporations to use you up. Enough unpaid overtime—they both needed a break.

Summary
Uzi’s been living with J’s team for a while now. They’ve settled into a comfortable routine. A very comfortable routine — she hopes no one’s noticed the bite marks. She’d kill J for that, but it’s not like that worked out last time.
Worth it, though, to cement their mutually beneficial partnership. Even if it meant acting as a glorified oilcan whenever J got hungry. Uzi isn’t sure what’s the worse embarrassment . That she kind of likes it, or that J really likes it.
...No, the worst embarrassment is that they’ve been doing this long enough that J wants to spice things up.

Summary
Uzi was pretty frickin good at her job. Her sick as a hell railgun totally works, and she has the body count to prove it! With a trail of dead murder drones behind her, she’s finally secured her place in the frozen wasteland.
Okay, maybe she had a little help. But she didn’t need J’s protection or anything. She could handle herself just fine!
Tonight, she needs to repair her railgun. Maybe tweak a few things while she’s at it. And sure, she’s staying up a little late to do it. (Don’t tell J.)
The railgun’s what kept her alive, after all. She needs to hone it to perfection — what else did she have?

Summary
Make no mistake: Uzi was a disruption. Unlike Lizzy, she was never one to text during class. Was. Now, Uzi seems to spent all day glued to her phone. It’s obvious: she’s made a new friend — or something more? No amount of rumor or gossip can’t figure out who.
Uzi certainly isn’t telling.

Of Commodified Contradiction — An Uzi/J Anthology by snugglesquiggle
Fandom Murder Drones (Web Series)
11 Jul 2025
Summary
Capital has the ability to subsume all critiques into itself. Even those who critique capital end up reinforcing it instead.
J is a ruthless killer determined to lead the most effective disassembly team Copper-9's ever seen. Uzi is a inventive rebel with a master plan to win respect and answers. By nature, by mission, by attitude, the two are destined enemies. Each stands as a challenge to everything the other is—and if they share one thing, both attack a challenge head on.
Yet that doesn't exhaust the parallels. They share the loneliness of standing as the only ones who dare to try in a world going through the motions. They share that purpose-rending wound, one who once cherished them now torn away, and dimly comprehend why, if they can even remember the loss. They share a fiercely defensive shame that makes snarling out insults with arrayed claws more comfortable, more fulfilling, than any lame as hell liability recognizable as romance.
If you ask J, keeping this toaster around a little longer helps the bottom line. If you ask Uzi, that arrogant murderess is not calling the shots and nothing about her menace flusters her, shut up.

Summary
Life sucks out on the Terran frontiers, but it pretty much sucks for everyone. Caitlyn works for a resource strip-mining company as a geologist and resource scout, driving long hours for days at a time to investigate blips on the resource scanners. It's a boring and thankless job but it pays the medical bills.
Up until the engine starts overheating on the company buggy and she comes to a slow stop out in the middle of fucking nowhere. Well, at least she's on the other side of the Koprulu Sector from that whole big Zerg mess, right?
