Summary
“Simon?” An unfamiliar voice gently interrupts his pleasant drifting, and Simon’s eyes fly open again. He hadn’t even realized that they were closed. “Sorry, I wish I could let you sleep, but Jack wants me to make sure that you’re, like… alive.”
“Jack?” Simon repeats. His mouth is dry and feels like it’s stuffed full of cotton balls. “Where’s Jack?”

Summary
“How is that even possible? How much radiation—”
Wilson looks back at him, and his face is deathly pale.
Rob decides that he doesn’t want to know anymore, and crashes back down into his chair. “Oh, God,” he croaks.
Wilson slams his fist into the wall beside the door, creating a resounding bang. “Fuck!” he shouts. “I knew I should have been in there, that fucker probably hooked it up wrong, I knew it—”
“Maybe it’s not that bad?” Rob offers, even though he knows better, and he regrets it immediately. “It is that bad. Fuck. That just… happened. Right now. In front of us. Fuck.”

Summary
“Ah. I have orders to separate you two. By force, if necessary.”
“That’s not going to happen,” Jack tells him. “And Simon needs a doctor. So why don’t you run along and get one and tell Ava she can come down here herself if she wants us moved?”
“If he’s fucked, that just makes my job easier.” He can practically hear the shrug in David’s voice. “So, if you’ll just come with us…”
“You don’t hold the authority here, moron. I do. And I told you to go get a doctor,” Jack growls.

Summary
There’s a dull thump as Jack’s socked feet land on the floor. “Maybe they’re right,” he contemplates, and the hairs on the back of Simon’s neck stand up. “Maybe you are a monster.”
“Maybe they’re right. Maybe you do deserve this.”

Summary
Almost without thinking, Ava navigates to the folder containing every radio transmission made to or from the tugboat. Everything is there; Ava insisted, starting with the SM-1, that they’d need to preserve everything they could, in case anything happened, and the subs couldn’t be salvaged. David called her paranoid.
Well, look at her now.

Summary
'Before Jack can make any further moves, the sub begins to shake. A dreadful, familiar, grinding crunch of metal fills the air as the hangar doors open and the chains suspending the SM-13 above that roiling bloody sea begin to lower.
They’re going down. Jack is going down.'
or: what if Jack wound up trapped in the sub along with Simon?

Summary
“God’s not dead,” Wilson argues back. “There’s, like, a difference between dead and abandoned, I feel like. If God’s dead we should be dead, right?”
Rob opens his mouth to say something- something like what do you think the last eleven years have been, but Wilson winces before he can. “Sorry,” he says. “That’s- that’s depressing.”
“I started it,” Rob says in apology.
“You’re right, actually, you did,” Wilson says, all smug-like. “I retract my apology.”
“You suck. I’m requesting a new bunk.”
“You suck more than I suck. Your suckage is- it’s adding to my suckage. We suck together.”
or: there are only bad options in Rob and Wilson's neck of the woods.

"Care to say something so I know I'm not just fucking talking to myself, Convict?"
"That's not my name." Simon all but growled, teeth grinding together as he pushed himself upright despite the pain.

Summary
As the infection grows, tendrils reaching further across the ocean and stretching up to the surface like trees, a little branch of veins catches to the backbox that's been bobbing at the surface for three months.
Ava and her team finally find the box, and in retrieving it, cut it free.
Simon hangs on.
Or; Simon is integrated into Jack as a form of payment for his sacrifice.
