Summary
When James Vega calls Arizona “el corazón de la familia,” the word lands with an unexpected weight. Once a weapon used against her, corazón becomes something new in the hands of a brother who means it kindly. Through quiet conversations, late‑night confessions, and a morning shared over coffee, Arizona learns that some words can be reclaimed — and some wounds can soften in the warmth of family.

Summary
In a house alive with laughter, hay bales, and the gentle glow of biotic magic, every day is an adventure in belonging. When Kaia, a spirited toddler with a heart as bright as her biotic pulse, decides to help her brother Blaze with a “BIG hello,” the result is a haystorm of chaos, giggles, and unexpected lessons in love. As the family rallies around Blaze—who finds himself at the center of a legendary hay incident—each member discovers that connection isn’t just about powers or perfect moments, but about showing up for each other, even when things go sideways.
From the porch steps to the pasture, from kitchen confessions to living room reenactments, this story weaves together the threads of family resilience, gentle encouragement, and the kind of unconditional love that glows brighter than any biotic light. With every hug, every pop, and every heartfelt pep talk, the Shepard-Cavanaugh clan learns that true resonance is found in the courage to be seen, the safety to belong, and the joy of being loved—hay and all.

Summary
Reconciling is hard.
Things never went according to plan, not really. Not with Shepard. Eden Prime. Noveria. Virmire. Alchera. Shepard was like a ship that skipped off the atmosphere every time he set a course for re-entry. With Shepard there was no script. No rehearsal. You just had to go with your gut.
