Summary
Juno knows he doesn’t imagine the look in Nureyev’s eyes when he glances up from his nails to look at Juno. He might look bored to the rest of them, but to Juno? He looks furious. That look in his eyes is cold, hard malice, and Juno has a lot of explaining to do if he ever wants them to get back to where they used to be. If Nureyev even wants that at all.
“Hello, Juno,” Nureyev says, his blood red lips forming the words Juno’s desperate dreams haven’t done justice to, and Juno has to grip his helmet until his knuckles turn white to stop himself from falling to his knees. “It’s been a while.”

Summary
The woman standing on the front step of a nearby building is intimidatingly beautiful. Her red hair and silver dress shine in the streetlight. “Hey, there you go.” Benzaiten whirls toward Peter again. “She can see me! I’m not dead!”
“I’m afraid you are, darling. I’m terribly sorry about that.” The woman opens the door behind her, revealing a cozy-looking restaurant. The sign above them reads ‘The Carte Blanche’. “Come in, won’t you?”

Summary
Mick is in the middle of a meeting with his publisher when his comms begin to blink - the name “Juno Steel” shining like an emergency flare.
"Listen, Mick, I’m calling to, uh…well, I’m calling to invite you to my wedding.”
Mick swallows the fondness and hope that flutters up through his windpipe. He knows Juno. This isn’t about friendship, this is a call for help, whether Juno is aware of it or not. And Mick made a promise to Benzaiten Steel over twenty years ago that he never planned to break.
“Wouldn’t miss it. Send over the details.”
Juno’s smile sounds incredibly genuine. Mick tries to settle his nerves.

Summary
Buddy had asked Juno about this weeks in advance. Unconventional for a birthday present, but very necessary and appreciated. He had agreed, but Peter wonders if he regrets it now. Juno is frayed and fragile by the time they meet their captain in the ship’s main hallway.

“Y’know Rita, I’m not sure if I’m really feeling up to coming over for ladies’ night,” Juno sighed, his eyes closed.
“Awww… that’s too bad Mistah Steel,” Rita’s voice crackled through his comms. “Ooh, wait!” she suddenly yelled, loud enough to make Juno wince. “I know! You say you don’t want to come over, so I’ll just go to you instead! I’ll be there before you can say ‘Rita knows best!’”
“Wait, Rita no-” Juno tried to say, but she had already hung up.
Or
Juno trying to be grumpy and serious vs Rita's high energy and positivity, fight!

Summary
The dim blue light of sunrise on Mars filters through the windows, and Rita says, “I’m glad you aren’t dead, Boss.”
Juno means it when he says, “Me too, Rita. Me too.” He’s not sure at what point in all of this it happened, but a half-remembered snatch of one of the old earthen poems they learned in school has been dancing around in his head. He thinks he may finally get it- after all this learning that doing Good, being Good, seeking some nebulous greater Good isn’t all he’s worth. A lesson he’s needed for a while, probably. The snippet was, “You do not have to be good. You do not have to walk on your knees for a hundred miles in the desert repenting.”

Summary
Peter Nureyev had stolen many important things during his time as a thief, but never anything as important as this. He wasn't stealing just anything this time, no, this time he was stealing back Juno Steel. It had been nine months since anyone had heard from Juno, and a lot can go wrong in nine months, especially when a certain detective is involved. They were all about to learn that the hard way.
