    Summary

    I know what Kip would want to do if he were standing at my side—my Kip, who at the end had wanted nothing more than to see one last sunrise.

    I step onto the path and into the field of fireflies.

    This is a follow up to rattyjol's devastating The Sun Sets Low. While I highly recommend reading that first, this fic can be read as a standalone.

    I love this speed run of Lesuia. (Because for Them, 20+ years is a speed run.) I love it for Them, for the happiness it is giving them, and the future possibilities it opens up for them to try.

    The taboos still have power, even if Cliopher falls blind only centuries after the first time he looks into his Radiancy's eyes.

    Summary

    When malware takes over SecUnit and it nearly kills three of ART's crew, ART is left with two bad options: keep the governor module on with ART as the Client, or partition off part of itself and stick it in SecUnit's head.

    Whichever option they choose, they had better make it work, because SecUnit is firmly centered in the crosshairs of its former owner, the most paranoid and ruthless company in the entire corporation rim. As things quickly get worse, destroying the company--something SecUnit has long considered impossible--might just be the only way to survive.

    Summary

    Cliopher wakes, to see the stars above him. They are unfamiliar, and slightly blurry. He blinks a few times, but they don't seem to want to come into focus. And yet he is sure they are wrong. Well, wrong for Zunidh.

    He was on Zunidh, surely? He doesn't remember being on Alinor or Ysthar recently. And he used to know the stars of Ysthar. Well, perhaps they have changed in the ten thousand years, or however long it has been, since the Fall there.

    Fall? Fall! He was falling before, that's the last thing he remembers.

    Cliopher borrows HR’s serendipity for a nice little adventure; this stresses his Solaara friends out; his Solaara and Vangavaya’ve friends team up to find him; and even HR gets a change of scenery. A happy read.
