Nora never expected to wake up from cryostasis to find her world turned upside down: the pilots missing, an insidious entity stalking the shadows, and Cal, her insufferable, arrogant crewmate, by her side. Forced to work together on a ship spinning out of control, they must unravel the mystery that haunts their vessel before it's too late. But the closer they get to the truth-and to each other-the more they realize that survival demands trust, and trust demands vulnerability. Now, on the brink of discovering their new home, their strained partnership threatens to ignite into something more dangerous than they ever imagined.

In an uncharted galaxy, where stars are silent witnesses and every breath feels borrowed, can two people learn to depend on each other, or will they burn out before their journey even begins?

Planatae by doodooferguson
43 parts Complete
In the empty, cold expanse of the Home Galaxy, life needs a cradle, a planet to spark it into existence. Given the right conditions, it can become something incredible - something self aware. And when that happens, the planet that helped it along might just take notice... Planatae are mysterious, sentient planets that are sustained by the collective consciousness of the people who inhabit it. In exchange for the chance to think and feel, these planets bestow upon their inhabitants a Factor - a particular ability that aids adaptation in a specific environment. Ricardia Yigera is on the run; more willing to carve out a life in the darkness of Onyx Station then return to the comfort of home for a terrible crime she's committed. Trapped by her guilty conscious, she's unsure of what to do - and how to make amends. Jasper Drift thought he'd finally found tranquility, hidden away in paradise - until his military past comes back to catch him - and the extremly valuable asset he's been keeping hidden for years. Lukas Adamas is the son of one of space's most prestigious scientists, a woman hell-bent on unlocking the secrets of the Planatae. Ambitious and determined, Lukas wants to follow in her footsteps. But when his mother hears a rumor, one that has the potential to change everything they understand about the Planatae, Lukas is dragged along into a web of conspiracy and responcibility he may not have been fully prepared for. Amidst clashing galactic empires and the enigmatic workings of the Planetae, these three will find themselves wrapped up in a conspiracy that none of them asked for.

Game of Riches (ONC)

500 passengers. Only 1 can survive. 7 years ago, Cora's mother died and her cowardly father disowned her to a ship for abandoned children, Station 457, to float through the stars forever. The disintegration of her relationship with her boyfriend, Evan was the last straw. She wants off, but she has no money and no means. Her only option is to stow away onto a prison ship heading for Ameatos. The Captain, who most unsettlingly has a strange fascination with her, announces a game for 1 million effos. She might've been tempted to ride it out, except Evan - who always manages to find his way back into her heart - is on board, and she may be the only one in any position to stop the slaughter before everyone on board dies. With her past still haunting her, it's not as simple as pulling the trigger. The one thing she can't do is admit her father was right.
