    Summary

    [Spoilers for the Roathe romance]

    “I gather that I’ve never taken you to my bed,” he says, certain it is true. Her spreading blush, adding the first hint of color to her grey demeanor, is fascinating — the Orokin in their shades of blue never blushed at all after centuries of apathy.

    “There is more to a relationship than sex, Roathe.”

    Now it is his turn to splutter, in disbelief. “Relationship? You mean to tell me that we were involved? Absurd. I might have believed time travel, or that you popped through reality like a bubble, but a relationship? Unthinkable.”

    She stares at him knowingly. “When two people interact over time, it is called a relationship.”

    He frowns, but feels the corners of his lips pulling up against his will. “Well, aren’t we irritating?”

    Summary

    1960s New York. The space race is real, but the Baxter Building is chasing something stranger than orbit.

    Dr. Claudia Montrowe is not part of the team, not officially. She's a theoretical physicist with a quiet authority, sharp observations, and an office no one enters without knocking. She stays out of the spotlight, doesn’t seek attention, and she certainly doesn’t have time for Johnny Storm’s charm—or whatever it is he thinks he’s doing. But he keeps showing up anyways. Looking at her like he’s trying to figure out an equation no one else can solve.

    He jokes. She deflects. He pushes. She pretends not to feel it.

    The others treat her like part of the team. Reed counts on her. Sue keeps her close. Ben makes her laugh when no one else can. And Johnny… Johnny won’t stop circling her orbit, no matter how cold she plays it.

    The launch is coming, and the rules are shifting. What will Claudia do with Johnny now that she can’t get rid of him.

    Summary

    Before she was the Veilguard’s infamous ‘Rook’ de Riva, she had just been ‘Rookie’—to Viago at least—the name always huffed in a rather annoyed and exasperated tone. It is in his House de Riva that she finds a family; in the Lighthouse that she finds companionship; and in the darkest corner of the pantry, that Rook finds love.

    ---

    Rookie is on a fast-tracked journey to change the world, but she'll do it her way, one Crow at a time—starting with her surly guildmaster. Through every trial, their inexplicable bonds are tested time and time again, and challenges the heart of what it means to be a Crow.

    Canon-divergent. Covers both pre-Veilguard events and in-game storylines. Crow-centric, with (un)healthy helpings of Viago de Riva.
