Chapters: 1 of 1
Summary:
At this very moment, Vespa Ilkay hates everyone and everything on this godforsaken shithole of a ship. Thatâs only a slight exaggeration because Buddy has yet to do anything to piss her off. However, honestly with the way things are going she canât be too sure about things yet to come.
Good thing she has a wonderful Captain to take care of her when things get rough.
âIt will be⌠alright, Pete. Our loves will return to us unharmed and safe.â || sometimes you just need a hug from mom, you know. commission for @violetsinviolence of a scene from the fic xe wrote where buddy hugs nureyev and it is EXTREMELY sweet, go read it!
[ID: a digital drawing of buddy aurinko and peter nureyev. theyâre both standing in junoâs room on the carte blanche, and nureyev is slumped over in buddyâs arms. his face is hidden in her shoulder and one of her hands is on the back of his head as she holds him tightly with a small smile. END ID]
Buddy Aurinko is many things- intelligent, cunning, strikingly beautiful, and funny to boot. And while she prides herself on being a very maternal figure, she is aware of her limitations as a leader.
If there was one thing Juno took away from everything that happened with miasma, it was that humans were not meant to be telepathic. The Lessoniana Capsule left scars that ran far deeper than just his eye. ones that juno hadnât even considered until vespa discovered the anomalies in his blood.
Alone and on the run with only the Ruby 7 and the remains of the cure mother prime for company, Junoâs decision to swallow that pill is coming back to bite him. in a way that is all too human.

Words: 3346
Chapters: 1 of 1
Summary:
One kiss led to another, then another, then another, and suddenly sheâd found herself on her back whimpering a womanâs name she barely rememberedâ to be quite honest she wasnât even sure if she had whimpered the right one. But Vicky didnât seem to mind, because Buddyâs name didnât start with an I.
And the last but certiantly not least of the Penumbra Bang 2022 is the art for the wonderful @violetsinviolence fic Floriography Which is just so wonderfully soft on so many levels I just...can't-
Please, just go and read
Summary:
There is a garden of flowers that make up Peter Nureyevâs heart. It is overgrown with weeds, bugs, rot, and hurt. However, with the return of Juno Steel, an apology and a stupidly green thumb in tow, Nureyev finds it in himself to cultivate his garden once more. Itâs not perfect, but itâs a start.
And if Juno gets a bouquet out of it, then that's nobody's business but their own.
A study of flower language, by Peter Nureyev.

And their feet move
Rhythmically, as tender
feet of Cretan girls
danced once around an
altar of love, crushing
a circle in the soft
smooth flowering grass
-Sappho
Many years ago, Vespa Ilkay and Buddy Aurinko danced under the same stars. The years have gone on but the stars remain the same. Under the watchful eye of the universe, Vespa relearns the steps she has long forgotten with the help of an unlikely friend. The dance continues, different but just as lovely.
[ START ID: Offset to the left of the image is a glowing white crescent moon. Standing in the bottom of the crescent is the black silhouette of two woman outlined in white. They are dancing. The taller dancer has short hair, and is wearing slacks. The shorter oneâs hair is in an updo and is wearing a dress. Across from the women is the story title âtwo slow dancers.â The background is a photo of a purple and blue galaxy filled with stars. Written along the bottom is the usernames of the author (goreapologist), the artists (coleforchristmas & legallyrequired) and the betas (bisexualoftheblade & mthyologeekwriter). END ID ]
