Summary
“My dad was a cop.”
Peter’s inhale wants to be sharp but isn’t. Neal’s still carefully frozen and angled away from him, his hair falling to his eyes as he—almost subconsciously—awaits a strike, but he relaxes a fraction at the softness of Peter’s voice when he says, “Oh.”
“I didn’t like him,” Neal goes on. “Not exactly the hero type. My mother, she wanted me to believe he was one of the good ones.” He gets lost in the story, doesn’t even notice Peter inching closer. “Even then, I knew there was no such thing.”
“No such thing?”
“As a good lawman,” Neal responds, half-slumped, the blood loss and the pain doubling his vision.//
Neal’s injured and afraid of Peter’s backlash after nearly killing Fowler.

Summary
As he stared down into the lumpy grey goop that was his evening rations, he contemplated whether it was really worth it.
They’d come a very long way just for Grace to give up and die at the last hurdle, both physically and emotionally. The Tau Ceti system was a long, long way away now, and Grace had faced not one but two highly emotional suicide missions. Three, if you counted the time before he was given a military grade roofie and hucked into space without his memories.
Rocky and Grace make it back to Erid! Huzzah!
Now they have to navigate all of... that.- Language:

i'll keep you warm and you'll keep me sane by AruiI

Summary
Jesus, my back.
I pause, gasping for breath — I'm genuinely sweating. And embarrassed. I wonder if Rocky can hear me losing to a slab of wood.
God, I hope he can't. Please God.
It's stuck behind a few empty crates and some miscellaneous spare lab supplies. A few beakers. A blender, for some reason. An ironing board. Why? Because go to hell, Ryland Grace, that's why. You can't have enough fuel to come back but you can have an ironing board with no iron. Here's two kilos of cement-flavoured coma slurry. Kill yourself.
"I'm being dramatic," I tell myself aloud.
I'm really not. Dying in space is a very dramatic situation.
The ways that Rocky and Grace miss everything all the time, yet watch over each other, always.

Summary
He closes in, and Carmen stares straight forward, does not flinch.
“Christ, mate, that’s really bad. I’ll get you patched up for now, but that might even be an ER after service.”
Carmy squeezes his eyes shut as Luca tries to cradle his hand.
He flinches back, “Oh, sorry did I do something?”
“No. Sorry, I’m good, Chef,” he says and looks forward.
“Did I hurt it?”
“No, Chef.”
The salt or lemon juice is coming any second now.

Captured together, Algy and von Stalhein are assumed by their captors to be working together. Unfortunately, they very much aren't, which means "torture the one to get information from the other" isn't going to work very well.

Summary
It’s peaceful in the blind, quiet, still. It smells like mold and forgotten beers and a whiff of cigarettes, but the wind that blows through the cracks in the boards is crisp and fresh. There’s a word for it, Daryl knows, for the smell before rain. His earth science teacher had said it one day. Daryl’d written it down and then the teacher had pretended to keel over with shock. A Dixon, taking notes? Just for that Daryl doesn’t want to remember the word, doesn’t want to like it. But he remembers anyway. Petrichor.
He’s thinking of this, half drowsy on top of Merle’s stained sleeping bag, when they come.

Summary
“Neal heard Peter walk closer and could almost feel the look of intense suspicion from the Agent before a hand gently grabbed his shoulder and turned him around to face his handler. Neal was not expecting the expression that really painted Peter’s face as he met his gaze; far from suspicion, it was one of caring concern.
“You really aren’t feeling well are you?” Peter questioned quietly.”
Their relationship is already strained after the warehouse disaster and Peter isn’t inclined to believe that Neal’s really sick...but sometimes even the best conmen are really just not feeling well and even suspicious agents care about their partners

Summary
Tenna lies broken and alone, his body torn and his mind consumed by regret. Every mistake, every loss, every abandoned connection presses down on him as he drifts toward darkness, unsure if anyone will come. Haunted by his own obsolescence and the cold emptiness around him, he is certain this is the end - until a certain figure from his past reappears while he lies on the ground, moving among the fragments of what remains of him. Whether this figure truly intends to save him, or to reshape him in ways he cannot yet understand, remains uncertain - and Tenna can do nothing but wait, and suffer.

Summary
Robby ran away. He ran away from Pittsburgh and all the messes he created there. He wasn't proud of it. He hated himself for it, but Nebraska was nice. He could breathe here. He could think clearly. Robby opened his own practice. A family doctor in a town of sub a thousand people. It was easy. He could do this work in his sleep. That's all he wanted. He could treat people here, and he could make a difference. He could do the right thing here. Right?
That quiet is shattered on an icy winter evening, when Robby meets Dennis.
Robby has known about the cult that moved into the old farm outside of town. He just didn't know he'd become so involved.
