    Summary

    The door opens. 

    Claire chokes. Ryland is standing there in blue PJ pants and an oversized PBS t-shirt. He's rubbing his eyes, which are missing his glasses, which makes it even more obvious how similar they look. When his hand falls away, Six watches him process what is standing at his door. His eyes go from Six, down to Claire, then back up to Six. 

    He laughs, high and stressed, then closes the door in their face.

    OR, Six needs help taking care of Claire after they break free from their respective jails. He decides that his younger brother Ryland Grace is the solution.

    Summary

    ***

    It was the lack of noise that told Courtland Gentry more than anything else that no one was actively trying to kill him at the moment. Had his assailant left him for dead? Didn’t matter, he needed to move no matter what additional pain it woke in his heavy body. Gathering his arms under him, he pushed up—

    There was something in his right fist. Taking one last look around the alley to verify no new threats were materializing—Christ, what city was he even in?—he pushed back to sit against the nearest cracked brick wall and uncurled his fingers.

    A crumpled yellow sticky note wrapped around a cheap plastic thumb drive lay in his palm.

    He unfurled the creased paper and found his own blocky handwriting staring up at him.

    "He goes to space. 37 loops and no matter what I do, he always goes to space."

    Then, in letters so heavily pressed into the paper the ballpoint had almost torn through it:

    "Save him. Save them both."

    Summary

    Eva feels like the breath is knocked out of her lungs when the man walks in.

    Dirty blond hair. Blue eyes. Sort of like… if Ryland Grace was hit by a car several times. It was undeniably him.

    “So you’re Eva Stratt,” The man says gruffly, slamming both hands on her desk. He looked exactly like Ryland, it was terrifying. It felt like watching a ghost haunt her in real life.

    “You’re the crazy woman that sent my baby brother up into space. Let’s talk, yeah?”

    or

    Colt Seavers finds out his twin brother was sent on a suicide mission. He does not take it well.
