teldreaming Author Website: AO3 Why this must be read:The Vorkosiverse is blessed with wonderful AUs, people exploring "what if?" things had happened differently. Some are short, some are very very long. This is a long one, but also one of the more far-out in concept. Miles from an apocalyptic future (now Jossed since
Cryoburn came out) is accidentally sent back in time to
Mirror Dance (in the omnibus
Miles Errant), with an experimental ship, a dead pilot, Armsman Roic, and a three year old Princess. He has to figure out how the heck to save the world from the great enemy he knows is coming, starting with fewer resources than he ever has before. It's gripping, exciting, and wrenches events off course from canon in interesting ways. And the second story, "We All Want To Change The World" is even better, as they deal with the consequences of the first story.
