Summary
In the shadow of a failed mission, Dave wakes to a universe forever changed. Earth has been obliterated by forces he cannot yet grasp, leaving him adrift in a cosmos that has no place for him. Dave finds himself pulled into a harsh, transactional galaxy where humans are little more than curiosities or commodities to be bought and sold.
What begins as a nightmare of captivity becomes something far more complicated. Stripped of control, Dave is forced to confront the unraveling of his identity, his purpose, and the ghost of a home that no longer exists. Fragments of his old life cling stubbornly: Frank, resurrected under impossible circumstances, and HAL, betrayer turned uneasy ally. They begin to piece Dave back — not as the commander he once was, but as something fragile, uncertain, and painfully human.
In time, the dynamic between them evolves into a consensual exploration of power, control, and trust in a world where those things have been used to wound. Together they navigate an alien world, ownership, and servitude, forging a consensual M/s dynamic that offers Dave the chance to learn how to take back control by giving it, choosing to let himself be seen, held, and claimed... on his own terms.
