    Summary

    ⋆。°✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺✧⋆。°✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺✧
    The two had exchanged enough knowing looks and vague references to make it clear that they both remembered, though in all honesty the Captain had known since the moment they’d walked to the window with him, staring out at the new planet. They weren’t entirely sure how he remembered; at the beginning of their adventure he didn’t seem aware of the actions that his future self had made in the past. They shook their head. That was too many tenses for one thought. The point was, the two hadn’t gotten the chance to actually talk about what happened, and it was eating up the Captain from the inside. Mark had been so on edge the last few days, flinching a little too easily, assuming he was in trouble instead of perking up when his name was called. They needed him to know that they understood, that they weren’t angry. Not at him.

    Mark and the Captain have a much-needed talk about the events of ISWM.

    Summary

    After the launch of the Hail Mary, Eva Stratt starts seeing ghosts.

    The first time that Eva Stratt sees Ryland’s ghost, she is still one-hundred percent certain that he is alive.

    For a moment, she stops breathing. He’s here, he’s somehow escaped her men, fought his way out of her death sentence. Exuberant joy sneaks its way up her spine for just a moment before her mind takes over again, before fear settles in her throat like a stone.

    If he’s here, then the planet—this precious, singular Earth—will be dead.

    Summary

    The bath takes care of the sweat. Takes care of the burnt bits of skin and fat that still cling to his palm. Zuko scrubs his body until it’s raw, blushing red; he dunks his head under the hot water and stays there, staring up at the dark, vaulted ceiling of the washroom until his lungs run out of breath to use.
    The oil of honeysuckle and opium and cinnamon, sweet and sharp and earthy, does not wash the stench of scorched flesh out of his nose.

    Zuko falls asleep on the evening of his official coronation, when he’s twenty-one-years old and has finally reached his majority. Zuko wakes on the morning of the Agni Kai with his father, eight years earlier.
    This is annoying for several reasons, like the fact that the War is still ongoing, that he has zero friends, and that Ozai is not in jail.
    It’s time to scheme.

    Summary

    “Do you like it?”

    Did Simon like it? Did he like having clean air and soil beneath his feet and fresh food and an entire room that was all his just to read to Eridian toddlers? He swallowed hard, blinking back tears, “Yeah. Yeah, I really like it.”
