Summary
My take on Aleida’s personal and emotional journey between Seasons 2 and 3 as she becomes a U.S. citizen, senior engineer, wife, mother - and perhaps most of all, Margo’s girl. Starts in 1984, some months after Apollo-Soyuz.
Multi-chapter fic, mostly from Aleida’s POV but with a healthy sprinkling of other perspectives (Margo, Victor). Fic and chapter titles are from the song “Turns Within Me, Turns Without Me” by The Paper Kites.
