Judgement Day arc

The Judgement Day arc covers the events in 2016 August (early-mid) when Reckoner, Breach-borne for the longest stretch of time on record, finally engages the people of Earth in Hong Kong harbour. It makes landfall in Kowloon, and eventually its body gives rise to the Hong Kong Boneslums.
In an effort to assuage the mounting stress levels of civilians and staff, Xiong sends volunteers out into the city on errands. Some of the make it back before Reckoner makes landfall, some of them check in from shelters, some of them are found safe and sound after the fact, however a couple remain unaccounted for into the evening. 
Xiong Li-hua, finding herself with decent backup hours away, saves her city of ten million with three pieces of junk, two water bombers, orange paint, Disney music, rubber cement, explosives, and an army of land vehicles, but not before Logan Jones and Lin Feng sneak out of the 'Dome to watch the action up close ("Enjoy the Show"), Tang Mǐn assaulted by BuenaKai cultists in public shelter, and Hannibal Chau sustains a grievous head injury. Tacit Ronin takes the kill but argues Xiong should get the credit because Reckoner was already basically dead by the time they arrived. 
Ficlets in this arc include "Judgement Day" (the bulk of the day's excitment), "Enjoy the Show" ("Judgement Day" from Logan and Feng's POV, and "The 4th Time Stacker Read Aloud" (Stacker's attempts to comfort himself and Mako after Reckoner are cut short when Mako urges him to help find the lost PPDC staff).
