At the Still Point of the Turning World by Lelarin for Coppercrow

Summary
It has been a grueling year of failing crops, and famine, and the daily toil of rebuilding Tortall brick by brick, but Alanna never dreams of those things. They are problems she can still face, so they do not haunt her like he does. They do not appear late at night to torture her with what might have been: too-fleeting visions of Thom older, healthier, happier. In dreams, she sees him walking the halls of the palace at her side, and poring over a scroll in a room at Pirate's Swoop decorated exactly to his tastes, and once, most bitterly, sitting by a sunny window with a copper-haired baby cradled safely in his arms.
-
Suspended between visions of an impossible future and memories of a past she cannot leave behind, Alanna learns to keep moving, and moves the world with her.

Summary
Those who gaze into the abyss may find the abyss gazing back.
When the space anomaly brought the imagination of the station's residents into being, it wasn't Julian's desire that came to light. It was his deepest fear, and the truth he had worked so hard to hide during his every waking hour.
Or: an AU set in episode 1×16, "If Wishes Were Horses", with only one Dax and 100% more Kahn.

Summary
It’s a temporary assignment—for Miles, because the cabinet of ministers turns over every week, and one of these governments will rescind Starfleet’s invitation; for Keiko, because she isn’t really a teacher.
Every day, the stars are the same, but the people are different. Most of the population of Deep Space Nine is passing through.
