Paypal and Payoneer no longer work in my country, so I can't get money from Ko-fi, Gumroad, Buymeacoffe and ComicAd (the ad banners here).
The only tip jar I have left is Boosty. It accepts Paypal, all cards, any currency, then it converts it into rubles and sends to me. Boosty works the same way as Patreon + accepts one-time donations like Ko-fi and allows selling ebooks.

This old Sentinel, a sociopathic professional killer, has a moral code of her own. And she loves her surrogate daughter more than anything.
When learning to play mind games Nolan was never taught to take such things into account. They were simply irrelevant in the immortal society.
Yet he is not a sociopath and is not entirely blind to what's happening now. And Faith's words do hurt. He indeed was sincere when saying his farewell to Hope. And he does like her a lot even though he knows her for just a couple of hours.
If this is not his last chance to make things right I don't know what is.

Wow, the culture/moral norms clash here hurts.

And those two are not even much different: both are products of the same - Atlantean - culture.

I don't think "fair" is a word that applies to any of this situation...

I'd go with Faith's definition of "fair".
