Why this must be read: The twinning arc of Farscape had lasting reverberations. In this fic, feldman explores (in her inimitable style and snappy dialogue), the lasting guilt of the survivors, of those that were left behind. And in a subtle way, feldman touches on the question of identity. The interaction between the four is fast and driven, bantering and humorous. In this fic, they all give as good as they get.
Excerpt 1 "You took a mushroom for me once."
Excerpt 2 The cold drizzle has stopped but water still flows from the roofs to the street. Crichton's mouth feels sticky from the Gai Dzii he helped Chi put down while the bouncers watched. She couldn't take them into the street and she didn't want to leave them behind.
Tangles of cabling dock each shuttered building to its neighbors, and it feels like he and Chiana are evicted ship rats swimming for the safety of the shore. They make their way through the ugly streets to the pod they'd parked arns ago, when the night was young and they felt it.
"Show me the way to go home," Harvey belts out the song, tromping through the water running down the center of the street, "I'm tired and I want to go to bed!"
Water sprays out from each step, but Crichton's used to the thoroughness of the manifestation. Every time he spots a flaw, a lack of echo or a lack of shadow, Harvey goes the extra yard to become a real boy. "I had a little drink about an hour ago, and it went right to my head!"
