  Summary

  Jon can hear his assistants talking about the Mechanisms through his office door, he was ignoring it.

  Then Tim says the one bit of false info he can't help but correct.

  You would think is would lead to his assistants learning of his past as the lead singer of the band, you'd be wrong.

  Summary

  Nastya went out a while ago and Jonny's been getting better about not breaking down over everything.

  He really had been!

  Summary

  Jonny 'lost' his backup emergency beacon during the Moon War, or that's what his crew thinks at least.

  Tim's best friend and lover Bertie died in the Moon War, or that's what Tim thinks.

  Surely those two facts are not related.
  ----
  On the Bridge of the Aurora an emergency call comes in.

  It's from the First Mate, it's his backup beacon, it's from the time of the Moon War
