- The Cambridge’s Final Voyage
Kinn System “She’s nearly ready to be scuttled, sir,” First Officer Reddy says with a salute. Looking out of the bridge’s forward viewing area, Captain Mali can’t help but sigh. Floating haplessly through space ahead of them is the Cambridge, an old frigate that had seen more action than most, but it hadn’t seen nearly enough to earn its salvation. The ship had fought alongside Mali and his ship, the Adelaide in the Corva Uprising.

Hreve didn’t know if the claims of the alien invasion were true or not, but - I Don’t Do Water
A knock sounds at the door of Carlos’s hotel room and he snaps to attention out of habit. Realizing that he was miles away from the nearest base and even further from the combat zone, he stops long enough to think about who might be knocking. He hadn’t ordered room service. He didn’t invite anyone over. Pushing down his many aversion and worst-case scenario thoughts, Carlos sneaks toward the door and fights off the urge to swear when he remembers that the door didn’t have a peephole. Aren’t hotels required to have peepholes? Carlos wonders as he reaches down to - Bad News
