    Summary

    Ryland Grace is trying to find his footing in a world where he's been blacklisted from what feels like every higher academic institution in the world. Teaching middle school science wasn't really where he planned on ending up, but he's enjoying it far more than his other academic career. Sure, his students can be unbearable at times, but it's not like they're going to publicly humiliate and ridicule him about his life's work.
    Sierra Six is trying to get out from under the feet of people who'd rather see him dead in a ditch somewhere, all while adamantly not thinking to hard about the death of the closest person he had to a father. It's admittedly a bit difficult when he's become responsible for the wellbeing of a teenager who was practically said man's daughter; He is qualified for many things, but being a father is not one of them.

    The sudden appearance of a long lost dead brother throws a wrench in both their life plans

    After surviving an assassination attempt by an extremist group hellbent on ensuring the Petrova Task Force’s failure, Ryland Grace gets appointed a bodyguard.

    A rather familiar one, at that.

    Summary

    I don’t think; I react. There’s an incredibly loud bang, far louder than I ever imagined, and I watch as if from outside myself as the man who was in front of me crumples to the floor. I see red spreading across his chest, and I hear gasps from the others. I don’t think they believed I would do it. I didn’t think I would do it either.

    Ryland Grace's attempt to flee from his destiny goes differently, allowing him to escape. Who can he turn to but his long-lost older brother?

    This was originally supposed to be a one-shot for Whumpay 2026, Day 17 (Self-Defence killing/“Does it ever get easier”) but it just kept going and has instead become this!

    Summary

    Court stared at the ground. He could just kill her. He was already here. But doing that wouldn’t save his baby brother, couldn’t bring him back. It wouldn’t even be justified, because vengeance only really worked if someone tangible to you was hurt. Even if Court could hold a gun to her head and force her to turn the ship around, it wouldn’t matter.

    Ryland didn’t even remember him.
