Summary
Lauchlan led a simple life, a comfortable one, and all things considered he was quite lucky. He had steady work, a roof over his head, food on his plate, a family who loved him, if from a distance, and good company to keep himself in.
He had his good days and his bad days, of course, everyone did, and if one outnumbered the other, well, such was life. He thought he was satisfied with his lot, but, all it took was one stag night, and a few too many drinks addling his brain for it all to come crashing down around his ears.
He didn’t know what drove him to it, didn’t know what he’d do, didn’t know what he’d done. All he knew was that he’d woken up in a strange bed, with a stranger man curled against his side, bruises like handprints on his hips, and the sinking realization that what he’d done could never be taken back, never undone.
He never thought he was the sort of man who would do such a thing. Never thought himself capable of it. He never thought he’d come to like it. Never would have believed he’d come to love him.
Turns out, there were a lot of things he’d never thought before.

Summary
Here, the events of Aliens and Alien: Isolation take place nearly simultaneously: Ellen Ripley is found while Amanda is on the mission to retrieve the flight recorder, and goes with the marines never knowing that her daughter is still alive. They are reunited once they both get back - Alien 3 never takes place, Hicks and Newt survive, and Bishop once again knows the joy of having legs.
Also, Amanda is dating Samuels, a WeYu synthetic - and if the terrifying alien creatures, gory deaths of her colleagues, survivor's guilt and long fight to be believed for once haven't turned Ellen Ripley's hair grey yet, this might just about do it.

Summary
“There are three stages to a repair. One, any internal damage or part replacement. Two, seal the skin: stitches, staples, glue, laser or patch. Three, melt and blend the edges so the seam disappears, and recolour if necessary.”
