    Summary

    Every screen in the room blazed with the same breaking news feed. An alien voice had just asked for him by name on live television.

    “Mr. Grace?” little Jamal whispered from the front row, eyes huge behind his glasses. “Is that really you they’re talking about? Like, you you?”

    Ryland’s mouth opened, but nothing came out. His heart slammed against his ribs like it wanted to escape and hide under the desk with the class hamster. He was just Mr. Grace. The guy who drew cartoon planets on the board, who stayed late helping kids glue together messy dioramas of the solar system, who once spent an entire lunch period comforting a sobbing girl because her goldfish had “gone to the great fishbowl in the sky.” He graded spelling tests on vocabulary words like photosynthesis and asteroid. Aliens did not know his name. Aliens did not ask for science teachers.

    The marker slipped from his fingers and clattered to the floor.

    Summary

    “What are you talking about?” Grace's fingers played quick chords as he spoke. He didn’t even look as he did it, but it did not make them any less purposeful.

    “Discussing possible reasons why Tau Ceti is not infected while other stars are,” Eva replied deftly. “I would invite you to join, but we were just finishing—”

    “Oh, that’s easy.” His hand twisted a knob, and the notes came out sharper. “It is infected—Petrova Line and everything.”

    In Grace's opinion, dreaming about time traveling is no excuse for getting out of practice with his Eridian. To the rest of the Petrova Taskforce, it seems a bit odd that their resident Astrophage expert has suddenly taken to carrying a keyboard around and playing it whenever he speaks. Eva Stratt resolves to figure out what is going on.

    Summary

    "Coyote? Didn't think it would be you." Roger asked surprised but shrugged with a grin. It had been two years since his sons snuck Coyote off of Newgate’s ship and healed them, helping him adjust to a missing hand and the scarring across his face. It would be great to see how that teen had grown, was he more like his mother or Newgate perhaps?

    A huff of a laugh escaped the darkness, followed by a deeper voice. "No, I'm not Baba."
    Shanks jerked forward as Luffy, his son, older and taller, but he’d know his kid anywhere no matter the age, stepped into the ring of firelight, a wide D grin stretched across his face, straw hat sat firmly on his head. "Anchor!?"

    "Hi Mãe." Luffy replied, still grinning and with a small wave.

    Summary

    Mike is in over his head.

    Harvey won't even look at him, following Mike throwing the case and hence allowing the merger with Edward Darby to go ahead.
    Donna, as loyal to Harvey as ever, also isn't talking to him.
    Rachel is furious at him, after learning the truth about his non-existent law degree and their file room hookup.

    "Quit," she told him.
    And Mike, realising he has nothing left at the firm, or even in New York, decides that maybe disappearing from the city is the only way to atone for what he's done.

    But once Harvey realises that Mike is gone? It hits him harder than expected.

    And what follows is a long journey of Mike and Harvey making peace with themselves and each other. And dealing with all of life's curveballs along the way.

    It turns out, you can't ever really outrun the ghosts of your past. You're always some kind of haunted.

    Canon divergent from season 3, episode 1 "The Arrangement". Marvey endgame. Please heed tags.
