Summary
Anthony Bridgerton is the youngest test pilot to make it out of Astronaut Candidate Training in a generation, and now the youngest Naval Commander in a generation. He has no want of a personal life beyond his siblings' happiness. There'd be no point as he's always known he will die on a mission, leaving his family behind, just like his father. He doesn't make plans for the future beyond getting man to Mars, nor any real connections with people. Until he meets Kate Sharma and finds he can't help himself.
Kathani Sharma is mostly a washout. Her father had meant for her to become NASA Administrator, but she'd never really applied herself to the science, at least not like her sister. She'd always really been drawn to flying, and had only applied to the Air Force Academy because it was technically free. She's only started training as an astronaut (almost a decade after she probably should have) in some last ditch effort to fulfill her father's dreams. She has no plans to actually make a name for herself or be named to a space mission. Until she meets Anthony Bridgerton and resolves to prove him wrong out of spite.
Or: the astronaut AU with a moon base I'm making myself write?

Summary
"Fingering her mother’s bangle in a hall closet avoiding a wedding is a bit too close to the worst day of her life if she’s being honest. Well, except for all the other terrible days of her life spent wishing for her mother, her father, for family, for him."

How I took it: Rafael gets in his head about Olivia's feelings. Also tangentially a dog. -

Summary
The man who has appointed himself Rafael's campaign manager thinks he should find a partner if he wants to win government office. He has no interest in anyone other than the person he made a joking marriage contract with years ago. He is also not running for public office.
Or a weird attempt to add something to the Hopes and Tropes marriage pact collection
