    Summary

    There is no point in crawling on your knees to absolve guilt. The decision has been made, the repercussions and the aftershocks have shook through the galaxy. There is only moving on.

    Jet is one of the many people aware of this. And when one of the many mistakes he made becomes a choice Vespa chooses, the only true way is forward.

    Summary

    After a perfectly normal day spent on board the Carte Blanche, each member of the Aurinko crime family suddenly finds themselves waking up alone in an empty room, belted to a metal chair.

    With no information about where they are or who has captured to them, they're forced to sit and listen to audio recordings of other members of their crew—recordings that teach them a little more about how their fellow family members see them.

    Summary

    Peter was not nervous.
    He was definitely not nervous about going undercover with the love of his life for the first time...
    Okay, maybe he was a little nervous.

    Both Peter and Juno are thieves in this one and they go undercover as the Roses for the first time! It's better than I make it sound, I promise!

    Summary

    Juno opens his mouth to speak, hesitates, then closes it again. He sips his drink in silence for a few moments, considering his answer carefully. He’s not actually sure why he asked. Maybe it’s because sitting here, in an empty parking lot on an asteroid staring out at the stars, he suddenly feels very, very small. Maybe he wants to know if Peter feels the same so he can take comfort in their shared insignificance. Maybe he's just tired and hungry.

    Summary

    Rita might not have been able to pull off a one-woman con on false charm as I could in my sleep, but she held a much more valuable store of wisdom. She knew people. How to see them, how to relate to them and take care of them. She had no need for false charm because she possessed the real thing, the charisma and availability that I could only play a pale imitation of. She knew how to glean what it was that someone needed, and could determine the best way to provide them with it without scaring them off. I’d seen her do it with Juno so many times, even when I was at my own wit’s end, eager to help him but often without the first notion as to how.
    And now, she had turned the same keen empathy and problem-solving on me. And of course, it had worked. I did feel a little better, a bit more like myself, and more like I knew who that even truly was. I was trying to find the words to thank her, and the courage to ask if she might teach me some of what she knew, some of that sensitivity and humanity and authenticity, when a series of beeps from the ship computer drew both of our attention. Our eyes met for an instant before we rushed to the display, Juno’s name an unuttered prayer on both our tongues.

    Summary

    They slip out, silently, smoothly, like-- well, like thieves in the night. It whistles sorrowfully as they depart. He shushes it, half soothing and half nervous, knuckles white as he grips the steering wheel like it's a lifeline. And he stares straight ahead, unblinking. 

    It feels a pang of… something, right then.
     

    The Ruby 7 loves its family. Peter Ransom loves their family, too. And that's why they have to go.

    Summary

    I had to get it together. After Ben I had gone into a tailspin, filled with a ferocious need to see myself crash and burn like I thought I deserved. I could feel that in me, that voice that sounded so damn much like Sarah Steel spitting in the back of my head about how it was my fault, that my failures and my inadequacies would cost my family everything, again. But… I knew better than to listen to her. I just plain knew better. Maybe there were things I could have done better but that didn’t make it my fault. And hell, even if it was my fault, I still didn’t have the luxury of time to waste punishing myself. I had to keep it together. I had to go back for them. I had to save them. 

     

    But… what if I wasn’t fast enough? I had gotten there too late for Ben, too late , what if I took too long again? What if I got back to them too late and they were already gone?

     

    From very far away, through all of the growing static in my brain, I heard a whistle.

     

    “Ruby…” I managed to wheeze out through the suffocating tightness of my chest, “What do I do?”

    Summary

    (SPOILERS up to the Season 3 finale.)

    “What the—Ruby,” Juno says. “This isn’t Io.”

    In response, Ruby makes a happy sound: correct.

    He’s starting to think Jet’s sense of humor is contagious.

    Juno listens to some good advice, picks several fights with a car, and gets a call.

    Summary

    Peter Nureyev was warm and alive like a sunset on Mars, elusive but unforgettable. He smelled like cinnamon and cloves and being safe and somehow, /somehow/, like the ground after it rained. Like growth. Like spinning in dizzy circles because the sky was falling on an imperfect world but it felt you were going to live forever.

    OR

    i kind of rewrote parts of that last episode to allow for more Pining and emotion, so this is a study in the smell of Peter Nureyev

    Summary

    I have a theory about how this season is going to end and where the Junoverse is headed. None of this is certain, it’s all just theory. This isn’t about Nureyev’s debts though, I have genuinely no idea what’s going on with that boi but he worries me lots. I love him, and can’t figure him out. This is about the other class X radical.

    Summary

    She arrived in the night: Buddy Aurinko, the woman who got away, the thief Vespa Ilkay couldn’t catch.

    Leading up to that night, things had been so simple: solving crimes, chasing after a killer with an eye for Ancient Martian artifacts, and scouring every case for a chance sighting of the master thief.

    With Buddy, though, things never happened on chance. Vespa was just lucky. Buddy had a case where she presented that she had the only lead on the killer. She knows exactly what plans to take next, and according to her, the killer's after something very big, and very dangerous this time.

    According to Buddy, anyway.

    But the question remains: can Vespa trust Buddy Aurinko?

    Summary

    Breathe in, out. Fold up every nasty emotion, worry, and distraction. Reduce to only the most essential.

    A billionaire's art gallery. A seduction job gone wrong. And a heist that refuses to stay on track.

    Peter Nureyev's evening starts off bad, and rapidly progresses to worse as he attempts to navigate his feelings for Juno Steel and a crippling sense of inadequacy while doing his absolute least favorite thing during a mission: improvising.

    Summary

    Ruby was a very good cat. She liked to lay across faces and knead her paws into stomachs and climb on heads during the workday. Occasionally, she would knock over a plant or somehow, get stuck in a cupboard. However, she went about all her business with such an impermeable aura of good-cattedness that it was difficult to blame her for any of it.

    Juno couldn’t even be mad that a black rescue cat had been named Ruby on the assumption that she, like her mother, would be a fiery orange. He supposed her color didn’t matter much with her stretched across his eyes anyway.

    Summary

    All things considered, it was a pretty good day to get eaten by a fish.

    The sky shone Juno’s favorite shade of blue, while the wine-dark sea reflected it just a little greener. For as much as the water crashed and lapped up at Juno’s chained feet, it was not too cold, nor too violent. Had he not been chained to a cliff in offering to a giant fish monster, Juno would have almost enjoyed the view.
