Summary
Saira has always hated summer. In winter the heat is soft, and the river is high, and the jackals retreat back into the desert, into the tombs where they belong. In winter the earth doesn’t crack, the sirocco doesn’t blow sand into her eyes until they’re red and wet with more than just exhaustion, the dull weariness of old grief and too little sleep.
(or: a snippet of the resistance!Saira fic that might have been.)

Republic of Heaven Community Radio by ErinPtah
Fandom: Fail_Fandomanon RPF, His Dark Materials - Philip Pullman, Welcome to Night Vale
05 Feb 2021
Summary
More than a century after the events of His Dark Materials, a Rusakov particle physicist (and lifelong Lyra Belacqua fanboy) brings a team of experimental theologians to Night Vale.
It was supposed to be a simple research trip. Instead, Carlos finds himself making a home, falling in love, and — with allies like the alethiometrist who adores his hair, a well-read middle-schooler who's handy with a knife, and a young woman accidentally displaced out of space and time — facing down a gathering crisis which threatens to topple the entire Republic of Heaven.

Summary
When ART finally confirmed the PA credentials and cycled the lock, I was waiting in the foyer. I'd disabled my human behavioral code, so I didn't twitch when the whole group of humans all stopped in their tracks to stare at me.
I said, "You have boarded the Perihelion, registered teaching vessel of the Pansystem University of Mihira and New Tideland. Please state your business."
In my feed, ART whispered, You sound like a shuttle attendant.
I sound like a SecUnit.
