Summary
Written for The Black History Month TLW Prompt list, first and foremost but also happens to take place in a series that I’m posting out of linear order due to the fact that I am a menace. I also wanted so badly to make at least one contribution to this prompt list.
Anyway-
Art can’t sleep so he goes to the space station Atrium to look at the stars where he finds Collie Parker and feelings about a recent, near fatal incident are revealed.Series

Summary
The night before Tressler is supposed to leave for Interstellar Academy, his (ex?) girlfriend comes by and gives him permanent custody of their portable radio.
Tressler drabbles, mostly, but I had a good time exploring this voice and style so I really, really, hope that you like it too.
Song title based on the old spiritual song from the south which has been covered by many black artists throughout history.Series

Peter Mcvries has only ever wished for one thing ever since he lost his parents as a child who was still too young to even remember their faces. He wishes on birthday candles, dandelions, lonesome ladybugs and anything else he can. By the time he gets his wish though, he realizes it may have come true in the wrong place and at the wrong time.

Summary
In three separate POV’s, Art, Pete and Tressler all contemplate and work through the loss of one of the cadets.
For those of you wondering/following my Interstellar series as a whole, this is meant to take place before Collie’s near death experience referenced in ‘And The Stars Are Still There.’

Summary
On his way back from meeting up with Ray in secret, Pete sees Art and Collie kissing in the atrium. When Collie leaves, Art and Pete have a talk about choosing love. (For anyone following, this is set after ‘And The Stars Are Still There’. Most of Collie and Art’s major romantic beats are being saved for the main story, along with everyone else’s for that matter, but anyways, this is a moment that I picture happening and wanted to expand on, but felt stronger (at least, to me) outside of the main narrative.

Day 7: Start
Summary: Getting the acceptance letter to The Academy marks the ‘Start’ of the main story, so to speak. Starting with Art and perhaps extending to Pete, Tressler, Pearson and maybe even a secret special guest- though, I’ll change things around to reflect that if it ends up being the case. For now, It’s just Art.
