Long Time Gone by bat400 (PG)
Fandom: STAR TREK ENTERPRISE
Pairing: None
Author on LJ: Unknown
Why this must be read: This nonchronological story follows the aftereffects of a decision made in the Nazi era, during an op engineered by Daniels, and pushes forward into the future, when Tucker, Reed, and T'Pol meet for a reunion.

The themes of memory, distance, and love are laid against duty and guilt, but there's no resolution here:

They rode the bikes through the pathways in the forest. At one point Trip and T'Pol began weaving their bikes from one side of the path to the other, never colliding, but slipping by each other, playing. Reed's memories folded in on each other. The true ones, the false ones, the ones he had to live with.
