    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.”
