Summary
Dec. 29, 2022: Rewritten, expanded, and alive!
In this war, there's no where safe to flee to — just one very fast ship, her (in)famous Commander, her ace pilot, and all the people they collect. Sequel to A Star to Steer Her By. This gets dark because war is dark, but we're here to kick reaper ass, not settle for a sucky ending.Joker could feel the furtive glances as he and Rhi stepped out into the CIC. It wasn’t the same as when he’d made that long walk before, limping past the all-too-able-bodied flight crew. No feeling of self-consciousness now. Just tension, flickering from person to person, and Rhi — Shepard — in the middle like a grounding rod.
Shit, they even looked at him as if he knew what to do.
The reapers were here. The criminals, vindicated.
Man, it sucks being right.
