    Summary

    Julian doesn't think about it much these days. Why should he, when it's been so long?

    But when he does, if he does, well—he considers it part and parcel of Garak, that's all. Disconcerting at first, a little invasive. Awfully close to a line but not quite crossing it, and leaving Julian with absolutely no idea what he's meant to do in response. Garak in microcosm, summarized in a single unexpected gesture.

    (Or: Julian has always thought Garak just had a weird little habit. Until another Cardassian does the same thing to him, and seems to imbue the gesture with a meaning Julian really had not anticipated.)

    Summary

    "You know I had to do it to them," John mumbles.

    He misses the beach. The real beach. The current one is mostly soil with a lacy veneer of nuclear ash, clammy and streaky and hilariously radioactive, which is a real bummer when he thinks about it too hard. But the twenty-five meter sea level rise that came when all the freshwater ice finished melting around the mid-century mark ate away at the shoreline, rolled in between the skyscrapers on a new tide, swallowed up all the people who couldn't afford to move anywhere else. Have you seen the rent rates lately?

    And then John accidentally'd the entire nuclear stockpile of the planet Earth.

    Summary

    “Uhhhhhhhhhh Commander?” Eiffel says, poking his head into the main room of the bridge. “So… I didn’t know how to bring this up, but it’s still happening, so I thought you should probably maybe know… there’s a ghost in the comms room.”

    The crew of the Hephaestus are a superstitious bunch... but, honestly, who can blame them?

    A series of linked, sometimes non-chronological, slice-of-life-ish vignettes about living on a station that's haunted, or maybe cursed, and plagued with mysterious happenings, time out of whack, crazy crewmates, a star that won't stop being weird, and maybe even... ALIENS??? (Nah, probably not.)

    Summary

    She feels like he’s peeling every layer of her being, one by one by one. And when he gets to her bones, he’ll find something she’ll never be able to run away from.

    “…you,” the stranger says, his hands flexing into fists. Unclenching again. “You are…”

    Gideon holds her breath. She doesn’t know why she thinks so, but it seems to her that Harrow does as well.

    The corner of the man’s lips twitches up in a smile.

    “You’re the spitting image of your mother.”

    Summary

    Tyrone smiled faintly. "To be honest, I started these studies on a dare. Then I decided, what the heck, might as well keep going and give the whole college experience a try."

    "Oh," Thomas said. "Okay. Must be nice. No pressure, right?"

    Summary

    Since a disastrous training exercise as a cadet, Cody's been hiding his connection to the Force, and he's pretty happy with the arrangement so far. He's a clone, and clones don't get to be Jedi. But he's just been captured by the Separatists, his secret's proving impossible to keep, and he's being drawn into plans he doesn't understand; he may never be a Jedi, but he's going to have to make a choice about what he will be.

    Summary

    More than a century after the events of His Dark Materials, a Rusakov particle physicist (and lifelong Lyra Belacqua fanboy) brings a team of experimental theologians to Night Vale.

    It was supposed to be a simple research trip. Instead, Carlos finds himself making a home, falling in love, and — with allies like the alethiometrist who adores his hair, a well-read middle-schooler who's handy with a knife, and a young woman accidentally displaced out of space and time — facing down a gathering crisis which threatens to topple the entire Republic of Heaven.

    Summary

    He types in the date. Primeday, the first of Firstmonth.

    And then he pauses.

    He checks the day on his datapad and smiles. Primeday, it reads. He almost doesn’t notice the second bit, written out in plain Aurebesh letters.

    Today is Primeday, the sixth of Firstmonth.

    Fox wants to vomit.

    He’s lost a week. A fucking week, poof, gone, nothing! He’s cracking under the pressure, he has to be. He gets up from his desk, intent on taking his ass straight to medical, when a terrible thought worms it’s way into his head.

    What if they decommission him?

    The story they hear is that of FN-2187.

    He's a defector – a traitor to the First Order. He's not the first, nor will he be the last, and the First Order expects to retrieve him and end him quickly.

    But that's not what happens.

    The only thing Stormtroopers own are stories.
