Thank you SO much to @pigeontheoneandonly for betaing!

Summary:

A few minutes more and they wouldn’t have even been on the ship. The Mako was scheduled and ready for drop, both of them suited up and ready with the final checklist completed.

A few minutes more, and they would have watched the Normandy burn from the surface of Alchera.

But they didn’t get those minutes.

Chapter Summary

This is a short prologue. First full chapter will likely post next week, and I hope to post every two weeks for the time being.

Chapter 01 – Across the Stars

The first salvo hit with Shepard in mid-laugh. Kaidan had brought up Feros and the near disaster on the skybridge - when the front wheels of the Mako had hooked them over the edge and nearly sent them spinning off into oblivion. So much like Shepard to laugh remembering a moment that had nearly killed them all. What if firing those thrusters had sent them careening over the edge instead of safely away? How long would it have taken them to fall? Would they still have been conscious when they hit the ground? Or would they have smashed to pieces against a skyscraper on the way down?

But of course they hadn’t gone over the edge. Shepard had been behind the wheel, and gravity always followed his rules.

Until it didn’t.

A few minutes more and they wouldn’t have even been on the ship. The Mako was scheduled and ready for drop, both of them suited up and ready with the final checklist completed.

A few minutes more, and they would have watched the Normandy burn from the surface of Alchera.

But they didn’t get those minutes.

The violent, unexpected pitch of the deckplates under their feet threw Shepard right into his arms, knocking them both to the ground, armor plating scraping against armor plating, Kaidan’s helmet flying out of his hands and rolling towards the galley. He’d wrapped his arms around Shepard out of instinct.

Why had he let go?

I had a dream that Pixis is in 115, and we get a jail scene, PLUS a new meme format. Hopefully I’m clairvoyant.

You nailed it Anon~!

So, it’s Spring Break and I finally have time to sit down and start sorting out things for my D.C. internship in the fall. Hooray! I’ve already booked a train ticket, checked out my hotel room (it’s gonna have a full sized kitchen :)) ) and figured out which classes I need to enroll in, and...

It’s happening? It’s really happening? I don’t recall saying that time could pass this quickly. Ugggh. 

(I’m suddenly really glad that I didn’t do it last summer and things cropped up...I am Not Prepared to graduate).
