Summary
Ghost is alive - he dug himself free from his own grave, from the clutches of his tormentors and from the nightmares that haunt him.
He's alive - but that's all.
His life has no meaning, anymore - he's just a tool, a weapon, a wraith. He lives, he fights, and one day, he'll die. Afterall, what does he have to live for? Each day, he holds on, searching, losing hope - maybe one day, he'll find his reason.
Then, in the most unexpected place, the most unexpected person - he finds it.

Summary
Ghost finally understands why he's seen so many soldiers count down the days until leave. As he looks at Soap, looks at where they are, what they're doing, how far they've come—when he looks at all of it... he gets it.
Of course, the flip side of leave, means that there's far too much free time to think. This, for Ghost, is something he's dealt with over the years to little success. But when he's got Soap, the good far outweighs any of the bad. The bright days outshine the hard nights. And the things that haunt them, even half a world a way, fade into the background.

Summary
When Astarion awakens in the aftermath of the Nautiloid crash, it is not to a friendly face but the press of goblin steel against his cheek.
Now a captive of the Absolute, he is left starving and huddled in the corner, waiting for the beast that shares his cell to finally strike.
Bears, after all, are not known to be the most gracious killers.

Summary
It figures that the only college with the badass Cavalier program is also the college that Harrow Nonagesimus wants to attend. Oh well. Campus is big, right? She'll probably never see that pointed little face again.
