Summary: The signal filtered through the receptor speakers so clearly and with so little interference that Wolfwood startled, as though a stranger had manifested in the cockpit with them. But it was still the five of them, frozen in their concentration. He didn’t recognize the voice or this lonely, haunted string of words, meaningless and unhelpful at the edge of the galaxy. No coordinates, no name, no identification. As if, more than anything, they wanted to be remembered, not rescued. It played over and over again like a song: I’m sorry, and I love you. I’m sorry, and I love you. I’m sorry, and I love you. This wasn’t a distress signal. It was an elegy. // Wolfwood has spent the better part of his sorry life working in a refuse and litter ship, cleaning up the vestiges of a bygone galactic disaster. On the last flight of his career, his ship picks up a lonely call into the dark.

I can't tell you how many emotions this gave me. I love a good AU, and seeing a Space Opera/Sci-Fi AU was a special treat onto itself. The emotions, the mystery, the buildup, the worldbuilding, the characters--they all make for a wonderful story, one that's well worth a read.

1, 10, 20 for the fic asks!

1. Hardest Character to write?

All of them because I haven’t sat down and written in YEARS

10. When you write fics, how much of canon are you willing to ignore/skip over?

Jason stays alive always

I actually struggle more when canon dictates something b/c I feel like I have to incorporate it in some way or “start” a story where canon ends for it to be cohesive

But I digress

TOA can’t be canon if I never read it

20. What story that you have written makes you the happiest to re-read?

Siamo Nei Guai will always be a good one

Threads That Bind because no story has ever made me go I WILL FINISH THIS in the last two years more than this one

How to Win a Nightwing is great

[monkeesonmymind]

I had a nightmare last night where I was at work and we were getting ready to close, but the customers kept coming in and shopping and refusing to leave until they were finished, and it wasn’t until 5 am that we were finally able to close.

THAT WAS THE WORST
