Summary
It was supposed to be a basic cargo run. Drop shit off, get paid. Instead, Ashton's stranded on a moon at the ass-end of space, smashed half to bits with only their engineer for company.
Orym's been wandering the galaxy on his own since the attack that killed his husband. The work he's been doing for Lord Eshteross hasn't quite given him back a sense of purpose, but he'll settle for direction and companionship.
It seems like just chance that allowed them to meet. But what is chance, really, if not the culmination of all that came before.

Summary
Caleb wakes up on Rumblecusp with no memories of who he is or how he got there. The people around him seem to care for him greatly, and he wants to do his best to help them, even when they fail to return his memories with their divine magic.
Many things are confusing, but none more so than what appears to be his personal journal, written in a cipher he can no longer remember. Perhaps the handsome drow his friends brought him to in Rosohna may be of help.

Summary
"I have a secret.
It’s the sort of secret that could destroy me... one that even I hate myself for."
- Judy ÁlvarezJudy Álvarez is a lonely woman with a troubled past. When she takes on a teenager whose past is even darker than her own, she doesn’t know if they’ll be able to help each other heal, or drag each other into madness.
V doesn't even know her own name. She’s a girl without a past, trying to build a future she can barely imagine. But she won’t be doing it alone.
Meredith Stout has done some terrible things, but she's tried to make up for them. The person she hurt the most has forgiven her; Meredith isn’t sure she can ever punish herself enough to deserve that forgiveness.
A character study in romantic obsession, the intersections between love and substance abuse, and the way lingering trauma can impact a person's ability to form attachments later in life. Sexuality is a part of our core identity, and we are never more naked - than when we're naked. (Disclaimer: they spend a lot of time naked.)
Alternatively: an excuse for porn (and fluff (and angst))

Summary
Exhausted, scared, famished and overheated, Jemma came to a skidding stop at the edge of a small brook that looked to be a few yards across and a few feet deep. She dropped to her knees, sending them sinking into the damp muck at the water’s edge. Leaning over and swaying as a dizzy spell made her waver, she sunk both of her hands blindly into the cool water. In the back of her mind, her brain screamed at her that she needed to find a way to boil or filter this water but the scratchy, gritty, sandy feel to her parched throat and swollen tongue forced her not to care. Her senses were solely focused on her thirst as she cupped her hands together and began to lift a scoop of the cool water towards her mouth.
“I wouldn’t do that if I were you.”

Toni,
When I first laid eyes upon you I knew—Who gave a shit.
My biggest regret was that I couldn’t—
Boring, tired, overdone.
So, I have just one request. Our land, this ranch, your home, has been in the family for generations, please Toni, please. As your father, I’m begging you, keep it that way. It’s the only thing I ask, the only thing I’ve ever asked, will ever ask. Take care of her.
Yours, always,
Stephen Gilroyor:
