Summary
Randy had always been fun, and Sara — Sara had needed this. Not just the night out drinking with an old crush, but the implicit support request he’d walked in with, the one she’d taken on sight.
At some point, the wheel would turn. He’d strike out on his own again, and she’d be damned if she let him walk back into the waiting arms of the Red Constellation. This was a mission. She squinted one eye shut and aimed for the bullseye, with the unshakable feeling that the stakes were life or death.
While drifting away from the Red Constellation, a lost and aimless Randy runs into Sara by chance. Turns out, she knows a thing or two about being lost.

Summary
“How could it be wrong to hate them, when you look at what Shinra has done to the world?” Sephiroth swept his arms out, gesturing to the rolling fields and woodlands, the bruised purple sky, the quaking linden leaves, at everything, and then at her. “At what they've done to us?”
Aeris lifted her chin. “Don't you want to be more than what was done to you?”
After five years in intermittent Shinra custody, Aeris seizes new hope when she discovers she is not the sole Cetra left in the world. The other? Sephiroth, infamous defector and violent revolutionary, who plans to exact a toll of blood from Shinra for all that they've done.

Summary
After decades of work, a certain history professor takes it upon himself to publish his late friend's life's work with as much transparency as possible.
The church, the guild, and several other organizations are split on whether or not to censor it, be it fully or even partially. There's a great deal to be ashamed of in this tale. Humanitarian failures greater by magnitudes than anything since the Great Collapse itself. In the end, they decide to allow the last wishes of the dead to be honored.
The story of North Ambria's collapse, and hopefully eventual rise, can finally be told...

Summary
“Well,” Maelle asks brightly, “what did you think?”
The pianist seemed familiar, somehow, though he is quite certain they’d never actually met before.
“His music was very beautiful,” is what Gustave eventually settles on, “but he seemed - a little sad. Didn’t he?”

Summary
If the Constellation makes another move… Crossbell is fucked. Having served in both the corps and the CGF, Randy knows that the latter isn’t even in the same league. The jaegers can and will slaughter the under-manned, under-gunned, jumped-up *border patrol* in the event of a real battle.
He can only see one way to save Crossbell from the Red Constellation. All he has to do is accept his Uncle Sigmund's offer. All he has to do is sacrifice the new life and friends and family he's built for himself in his new home.
It'll be easy enough, considering he's a piece of shit who never deserved it.
****************************************************************************
(A Jaeger Randy AU set after Azure's Intermission and continuing into the events of Cold Steel II).
