    Summary

    Twelve hours. Tick, tick. Adam squeezes hard, like he can get the blood flowing from his grip and kickstart the beating of Paul’s heart. It doesn’t work, it’s as useless as desperate field CPR, and he breathes out slowly as he lays his forehead against the edge of the mattress.

    If only his hand could pull Paul back from the dead, could wrench him from the chilling grip of the Mysterons and this endless curse. His heart aches with the desire to take some of the pain of this all away from his friend, to squeeze his hand and let them share it. If he could, he’d reach straight into Paul’s soul and hold on as he was being pieced back together so he could give him a piece of himself to share the agony of it.

    How many more times could his body do this?

    Adam struggles with Paul's indestructibility. No matter how many times he dies, he always comes back, but surely that ability has to run out. Doesn't it?

    Summary

    Long missions are often exhausting, that comes with the job. Usually they’re followed by the Captains retreating to their quarters to rest. But, occasionally, they’d rather stay together, and sometimes that takes the form of them all napping in the officers lounge with Scarlet in the middle.

    Summary

    Finding a man washed up on the beach of Tracy Island was not on Scott’s morning to-do list. And the unfortunate soul who found themselves in the Pacific Ocean is clad in Spectrum uniform, which just makes things even more complicated. But there’s something about the man that Scott recognises, and he’s sure he’s met him before, he just can’t figure out where from.

    Then again, maybe it doesn't matter, as the man is most definitely dead...
