    Summary

    Reach is instantly drawn to Veronica – and she can't take her eyes off this strange, yet disarming man either. But there's a problem. Well, two problems. For one, Reach is a digital consciousness trapped in a man’s body. He might look like a rugged forty-something, but his experience with the corporeal counts in hours. He doesn't know how to handle this shit. And the woman who's making him feel a certain kind of way belongs with Rolf Hurd, his first and only friend.
    Thankfully Tempest and Veronica are on the same page about welcoming this wet cat of a man into their shared life.
    This story happens during canonical game events, although I've shifted some of them around in order to serve its momentum better.
    Hope that you'll enjoy it!

    Summary

    Whatever happened here was bad. Irrevocably, inexplicably, inarticulably bad in a way that the most basal parts of his being wants nothing more than to escape from. But Grace can't turn away.

    After encountering what appears to be a last hoo-ra emergency mission attempt from Earth caught up in the Hail Mary's wake, Grace and Rocky discover a single, severely injured human being quite literally encased in what Grace can only describe as a crime scene. A horror movie. And when he wakes up? He's mad. Really mad. Talking to the walls mad. Now they have to figure out just where he came from and why. Things are further complicated when all the newcomer (Simon, they learn) can talk about is missing planets, haunted oceans, and non-existent space stations. That and the really weird data they've been picking up on.
    Maybe part of solving that is, much to Rocky's enthusiasm; both Grace and Simon slowly realizing how lonely they are.

    Summary

    The Warrior of Light gets trapped by a voidsent that grants its victims hallucinations of their soul’s happiest memories while it consumes their aether. Only, this time, it reaches so far back that it ends up using Azem’s memories instead.

    [Set after 6.0, EW spoilers. Mostly an excuse for me to play with the WoL's identity crisis and the Lotus-Eater Machine trope.]

    Summary

    Only when Ghost was blessedly shielded by shadows did he dare turn around, knife in hand, to greet the beast.

    His breath caught unwillingly in his throat.

    Large.

    Ghost had always known that the Na’vi were big. It was perhaps the greatest point of intrigue for their species to those who knew little more than side-by-side comparisons. The Na’vi were massive in theory…but it was an entirely different topic to tackle when one was staring directly at where Ghost lay in hiding.

    . . .

    Ghost came to Pandora to die amongst unseen stars. He didn't care for his Avatar body - the body Tommy was meant to pilot before he died - he just wanted rest.
    Unfortunately, after his transport crashes on the surface of Pandora leaving him stranded, he's forced into wars he swore off when he left active combat. The Na'vi are brutal, but they are not unkind as they pick up the broken pieces of him and remind Ghost...

    His heart is warm so long as it is beating.

    Summary

    It took a ridiculously long time for the rest of the Science Team to realize that Gordon had lost the ability to talk.

    In their defense, though, it took him quite a while to notice himself.

    Summary

    “...A sleep-induced sickness? I’ve never heard of such a thing.”

    No cost too great.

    “It...It..It’s in my head..It..It won’t go away...”

    No mind to think.

    "You may have seen me put a blade through Her heart, but I was foolish to think She was really gone."

    No will to break.

    “The Void bends to no one. It merely makes room. It asks a price, but never asks in words. You must pay in kind."

    No voice to cry suffering.

    “...No matter what happens, just know that I will never stop loving you.”

    “Oh, my Root...I’ve known that since the beginning of time.”
