it's EXACTLY like that by presumenothing (justjoy)

Summary
#03: Anyway. Stratt being Stratt, the only thing harder to sell than this relationship we were totally very much not having would be the idea of Stratt taking leisure time, let alone any kind of date activity.
#04: His free hand goes scrabbling for the hacky sack only to be met with disappointment; she’d confisticated it to her own desk four hours ago on grounds of the fact that (and she could not possibly stress this enough) it was not lava.
#05: There had been a time when I had been nervous about flying. I definitely remembered it, anxious jitters and all.
#06: It’s not like Rocky doesn’t interrupt me ever (or vice versa, let’s be real here) but it’s usually reserved for when he thinks I’m talking about something unimportant and/or downright ridiculous.
#07: Why translator voice sound like juvenile human, question?
#08: "And you maintain that you kept Dr. Grace around merely for personal purposes, despite him not being of use to the task force?"

Summary
Very little changes, in the wake of the blast and the two key casualties it claimed.
It means that Dr. Shapiro is sent in DuBois’ stead; personal kits swapped out even as the nitrogen stays the same. It means that Stratt summons Commander Yao behind locked doors for a discussion that ends almost as soon as it begins, for he finds it abhorrent to even consider an amnesiac specialist over a grief-stricken one; he thanks her in stiff tones nevertheless, not that it matters either way.
It means that she never needs to activate the plan tucked in a corner of her web of eventualities. It means that Grace dies thinking that Stratt is a good if callous person. Dies unbetrayed by all, save the measuring error of one overworked quartermaster.

Summary
“Dr. Grace?” It’s been ages since Carl called me that. I can’t find it in myself to correct him. I hadn’t even heard him knock. “You asked to see me?”
Is this what being Stratt had felt like, people tiptoeing around you all the time? If only we’d had the time to treat the Astrophage with the same terrified respect. Then I wouldn’t be standing here in this room, space yawning cavernous around us like shoes I can never hope to fill.
I swallow what feels like a scream. “Come in. Close the door.”

Summary
“I didn’t. Say, that is,” he adds, not missing a beat. Fascinating. Either he’s sharp, or he’s used to dealing with people like her for all that he looks like a mess of a human being. “But anyway, I saw it on your personnel file a couple times. Teacher thing, you get a memory for the most random things. Sorry I didn’t bring coffee, by the way, I have no idea which shops would be good around here? And yeah, I know your coffee order too – or, uh. Unless you only doubled it after starting the Project? I mean, that definitely was a high-stress environment if I ever saw one.”
“You underestimate the work of administrating ESA,” Stratt replies, before her interloper can continue with his rambling.

as it says on the tin: the one where i attempt to FINALLY make a dent in the approximately three thousand tonnes of wips i have lying around the proverbial house
(these are all going to be unrelated and very multifandom, because that is the kind of person i am, but still – putting them in one series for the hell of it)

"You don't need to keep me company," John said, finding he could be amused again.
"It's always a good idea to expand one's horizons," Cygnet said, glumly. "Maybe I'll try one of the bottled beers instead. Are you all right? As pleasurable as it would have been to watch you flatten Dave, the consequences struck me as undesirable."

Harold cracked an incredulous eye and peered up at him. John shrugged with his other shoulder. "I've always wanted a stand mixer."
"I can get you a stand mixer."
"It's not the same," John said sadly. Harold made a faintly disgruntled noise.

"Go live in a city somewhere," Harold said. "Aurora — the Machine — would offer you numbers again, John, if you would take them. You could go back to saving people instead of hurting them."

Hoarsely he said, "The worst of it is — " He was panting like someone fresh off a race. His face looked like someone had wrenched it out of shape. "The worst of it is — now I'm safe. Because I can't — I can't ever — " He stopped.

Summary
Carter knows she cares too much, she's been told so by every commanding officer she's ever had; and that caring keeps her sharp but also puts her in danger of burning out. So once in a while she takes a moment to breathe, to remember who she is when she doesn't have on a badge.
So she doesn't feel guilty about it, when Fusco calls and says, "Carter, sorry, know it's your day off, but I think we're going to need you down here--"

Bookmarker's Notes
The cotton hospital gown looks incongruous on him, in the gray skin it shows, the lax bare arms on top of the sheets—it's wrong, somehow, as if when you stripped Finch you should only find another suit, layers of silk and tweed and tailored wool down to nothing. Stranger still to see his eyes not just behind glasses but closed, unaware. For once he's neither watching nor listening and Carter has no idea what he is, if not that.
She looks back at Reese, to see if any of her own discomfort is visible on his face, but the expression she catches there isn't anxiety but something wholly different. A smile, smaller than the smirks he threatens Fusco with, only the barest upward tilt of the corner of his lips and yet it seems bigger somehow—
His eyes, she realizes, this smile reaches his eyes.
