    Summary

    John encounters one of the lesser known dangers of the space age, and he's lucky he's got family who can do something to help.

    'Chose not to use archive warnings' has been selected in relation to the 'grief/mourning' and 'survivor guilt' tags selected. There is no death of a main chartacter in this, though there is death of background characters that have a large impact on the last chapter.

    This one came to me in a dream.

    Summary

    John’s in trouble once again. A simple malfunction or an attack on the station? Either way Scott and Virgil aren’t going to sit back and wait to find out, even if getting him to safety isn’t going to be as easy as they first thought.

    Summary

    “Australia.” Gordon grins from where he’s hovering in the doorway of John’s little ensuite bathroom. “We could fly over to Sydney, catch some waves.” The kid wiggles a hand through the air in what's probably supposed to be a sea-like motion, and John tries his best not to compare him to some kind of demented jellyfish. Alan sure would have.

    “You’re kidding, right?” Instead, he catches Gordon’s eye in the bathroom mirror, where he’d been brushing his teeth. "I've just got down Gordy, what makes you think I want to go surfing?" The mouthful of foam rather renders the long, unimpressed look John’s giving him ineffective.

    In which Gordon tries to take John surfing and they don't even get to the beach before it all goes horribly, horribly wrong.

    Summary

    Knowledge is a double-edged sword and it’s John Tracy’s job to know things. Whether it be the correct way to dismantle a landmine, or the French ambassador’s favourite coffee, he knows that rescues, and by extension his brother’s lives, hinge on data.
    All he can do is learn and find ways to keep as many people alive as he can. And so, he does. For every eventuality.
    But what happens when it is used against him?
