    Summary

    It starts—as most things on the Zephyr do—as a drunken bit.

    “Gotch.” Van says solemnly. Her flesh hand shoots out to grip his shoulder tightly. Her eyes burn into his skull. “I’m gonna be your dad.”

    Maxwell blinks. “What?”

    “Your father is an absolute arse, and if he doesn’t want you, I call dibs. I’m your new da.”

    Or: Longspot Gotch sucks. Van, ever the problem-solver, steps up.

    Summary

    The storm wasn't the worst they'd seen—not by a long shot—but it was enough to toss the Zephyr around, all wind and lurching weight. It was enough to leave Van gritting her teeth while leveraging her entire body to tie lines, yelling out orders all the while. The fall comes fast—one particularly nasty listing of the ship knocks her off balance as she's scaling the rigging, slamming her metal shoulder into a crossbeam. She lands hard, grunts once, and keeps going.

    Summary

    “Give me your hand.”

    He paused for 7.32 seconds, which was long enough for me to start reevaluating every life choice that led to me ending up here, in this room, awkwardly holding a bottle of nail polish while trying to act calm and reassuring.

    But then – just when the silence was getting genuinely excruciating – he slowly uncrossed his arms and placed his left hand on the table between us.
