Summary
They are an odd match to be drift compatible — the man as tall and broad-shouldered as the woman is small and slender.
“Interesting,” Steve says. “They could almost pass for —” He stops, the forkful of macaroni arrested halfway to his mouth. “Holy geez,” he says reverently. “That’s —”
“Lucky Striker,” Bucky finishes. “Sonuvabitch!”
Romanoff and Barton. They’re legends, the very first team to establish a neural handshake once Stark nearly blew out his heart trying to pilot a jaeger alone and realized it only works with a shared neural and physical load.
They have more kills than any other team out there. Hong Kong, Vladivostok, Lima — Lucky Striker has held the line in almost every ‘dome on the rim. Steve and Bucky have pored over the footage of every single one of their kills, marveling at the way their jaeger moves. Fluid, seamless, graceful. And most of all, of course, deadly.
“Think they’re just visiting or they’re here to fight?” Steve asks.
“Either way, we’ll probably at least get to see them in the kwoon,” Riley drawls. “Whaddaya think they’ll use? Staffs? Nunchaku? Or just hand-to-hand?”
“Whatever it is, it’s gonna be fuckin’ beautiful,” Bucky says.

Summary
The Eridian thrills a high sound that doesn’t get picked up by the translator which means that it has no clear meaning. Like when a human gasps or sucks in a deep breath. It actually sounds a little like that. When they notice that I’m staring straight at them they scramble back into their hiding spot and hold very still.
A child, I realize with a start.
That’s a child!
“Hey,” I call and the kid squeaks again. I was about to get to my feet but abort the movement and crawl closer on my hands and knees until I'm inches away from the xenonite wall. I wait and it takes me much too long to realize that they don’t have to peek around the corner to see if I’m still there.
“Hey there,” I try again, my voice low and calm. It’s my teacher voice, the one I use for shy and scared students.
Used.
The fact that I haven’t had to use it for years and it still comes to me automatically almost knocks the air out of my lungs but this is not about me, it’s about making sure the little pebble doesn’t die of fright from the scary alien. “Hi, I’m Grace. It’s alright, you don’t have to be scared.”

Summary
The Eridians have finally gotten the water feature in Ryland's personal zoo enclosure just right (even if Rocky would like him to stop calling his dome that).
Rocky refuses to believe that humans naturally float. There is no way Ryland's entire species regularly goes into deep water for fun.

Summary
Rule number one of command is that young men and women die. Rule number two is that doctors can’t change rule number one.
A routine officer exchange turns into a nightmare when the USS Solace is attacked. With the Captain dead and systems failing, McCoy becomes the ranking officer. Trapped in the dark with the Enterprise three days away, McCoy must reconcile the healer he is with the commander he has to be — even if it means breaking his oldest promise.
