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.”

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
Rage twists across Jack’s face, but Simon only has a moment to process before it’s gone, because Jack immediately leans down and sinks his teeth into the meat of Simon’s thigh.
Simon’s muscles seize, and his other leg instinctively shoots out to kick Jack off, but it just bounces uselessly off his shoulder. “Fuck, fuck, fuck, I’m sorry, fucking stop!” Simon bellows, as tears well up in his eyes and his leg quivers violently.
Jack releases his jaws and raises his head, slowly. “Keep my wife’s name,” he growls, “out of your goddamn mouth.” His canines sport a splatter of Simon’s blood, and Simon feels dizzy.

Summary
Then, after a moment of silence, with a hearty flush creeping across her cheeks, Kate squeaks, “Hi.”
Jack giggles, surprising himself. “Hi to you, too.”
“I should, um, I mean, I think we have to, like, there’s still more to—” Kate’s eyes dart around, now, and she shifts her grip on her cane. “I mean, thank you, I—”
Jack kisses her on the nose, and her words stutter to a complete halt as she blinks rapidly at him. It’s the most adorable thing he’s ever seen. “Go on and double-check with Tam, yeah?” he tells her. “I promise not to wander off.”

Summary
“Yeah. Never appealed to me. Just seemed kinda… unsanitary, I guess,” Jack muses, with a shrug. “But now I keep thinking about it. And I’m so fucking bored.”
“Bored enough that you want to try sucking a dick?”
Jack considers for a moment, lips pursed, then answers, “Yeah. Fuck it. Why the hell not?”

Summary
“This isn’t a request, Jack, it’s an order,” Ava snaps. She advances towards Jack’s bed, and Simon stands. She halts and looks warily at him. “We need to move you. End of story.”
“I want to know what’s wrong with my blood that you think I’m dangerous,” Simon growls, narrowing his eyes.
Jack holds up a hand towards Simon, signalling him to back off. “Captain,” he says, “if you stick me in a room by myself, I’ll go fucking crazy.”

Summary
Simon’s head is pounding. “Jack?” he mumbles. He hopes it’s Jack. He hopes this is real, and not the dream.
The bandages over Jack’s eyes are so loose they’re practically falling off as he raises his head from where it was buried in Simon’s pecs. He’s silent for a moment, then blurts, “The fuck did you do that for, asshole?”
“The fuck did I do what for?” Simon’s sick of being confused. He tries to lift his arm to push Jack off, but Jack is still pinning it down. “Get off!”

Summary
When he stumbles back into their shared room, Simon is breathing heavily. “Jack,” he says, urgently. “If, say, hypothetically, there was something wrong with me, not that there is, but just hypothetically… what do I do?”
Jack turns his head slowly to face him, and Simon hates the way Jack not-looks at him like this, with his eyes hidden but his attention clearly focused entirely on him. Then, he says, “Nothing.”

Summary
Jack’s words hang in the air for several long moments as Simon’s thoughts churn. He’s just tired—tired of everything, including this sickening guilt that creeps back into his chest whenever he’s too present for too long. Hearing Jack’s voice and seeing his face only makes it worse. He wants to do something.
He needs to do something. Some kind of absolution, no matter how absurd.
Simon sits up, turns to look at Jack, and blurts out, “Can I suck your dick?”

Summary
“You need,” says Simon, parroting Ava’s words back at her, “my blood. That’s what you said.”
Ava won’t look him directly in the eyes. “Yes. We’d like to test your blood. Please.”
Simon snorts. “Don’t act like it’s my choice. Don’t act like you can’t just walk in here and take it if you want to.”
“I don’t want to do that.”
“Bullshit.”

Summary
Red-hot anger flashes through Simon’s body. He’s taunting, Simon knows he is, but he can’t help rising to the bait. “Since when do you give a shit if I eat?”
There’s a pause, and it drags.
“It’s important,” says Jack, finally.
“No shit, but you don’t care if I live or die,” Simon snaps. “You’re hiding something from me.”
“You’re paranoid.” Jack’s voice is low and gruff and certain—authoritative in a way that tugs Simon towards believing him.
Simon doesn’t believe him.

Summary
In a dry, raspy voice, Simon croaks, “Fuck.”
Immediately, the blurry figure’s head snaps over to look at him. “Are you awake, or just talking in your sleep again?” an unfamiliar voice demands—low, with a twitch of an accent that Simon doesn’t recognize.
Simon blinks, but his vision only clears minimally. The ceiling is an off-white blur that smears as he turns his head to look at the stranger. He doesn’t recognize him; bandages obscure the details of his face. “I talk in my sleep?” he asks.
“A lot. It’s annoying.”

Simon wakes up in sick bay, quarantined with the man he accidentally irradiated and permanently blinded. Mutual hatred (of a sort) ensues.Series

Summary
It began as a fever, and Alexander treated it just the same as he would any other man’s illness, but nothing he did made any dent in the heat coursing through his body. After only a few days, it had become so intense that he couldn’t grasp at other explanations anymore, and he was only barely keeping himself together when he informed Captain Penny that he was under the weather and needed to be given privacy. Penny had granted his request with a concerned edge to his voice, and it had struck Alexander’s nerves like a bolt of lightning before he scampered away.

Alexander experiences his first heat aboard Captain Penny's Arctic whaling ship, some years before serving aboard Terror. -

Summary
Eobard pushed his chair back, and pointed with one shoe towards the coffee spill. “There’s a mess. Clean it up.”
Ray immediately jolted into action, murmuring a hasty, “Yes, sir,” as he pulled the mop from the bucket.
Eobard wondered where all his confidence—if he could even call it that—from the previous evening had gone. This was his golden opportunity, if Ray could only reach out and take it.
—
Eobard had thought that turning Ray Palmer into a janitor would be humiliating, degrading, and miserable for a former Legend. Instead, Ray appears to have developed a crush on him. -

Summary
Alexander knew where he was needed. He stood—gradually, trying not to unsettle him—and made his way over to Harry’s side. When Harry looked up at him, his eyes were as round as saucers, and Alexander calmly met them. He said nothing, not wanting to intrude into the delicate nature of Harry’s recollection, but sombrely laid his hand to rest on the curve of Harry’s spine.
Harry shuddered, and squeezed his eyes shut. “I watched the bear kill him,” he explained, in hushed tones. “I watched the bear kill him twice.”

In moments of extreme violence, there is a chance that a human will 'ascend' into the true form of their soul—either an angel or a demon. The fates of the crews of Terror and Erebus change accordingly.
