Summary
Jimmy kills himself and takes the easy way out. Curly, trapped in the cryopod, wishes more than anything to take the responsibility his deranged co-pilot wouldn't. Days before the crash, the Captain wonders if he's going crazy, suddenly haunted by a maimed, limbless man that none of his crew can see.
Or: Curly, Anya, and the future ghost of his mistakes. A fix-it, featuring imperfect people and one degenerate loser.

Summary
Anya wakes in perfect pitch-black to the hum of the engine, nestled deep in the bowels of the Tulpar—a sort of incandescent thrumming that she can feel vibrating even through the thin mattress and bedframe. It is the constant heartbeat of a giant—like listening to check if a patient is still alive.
It said: you are still rocketing at a million miles an hour to some distant planetoid. You are still millions of miles from everything you have ever known or loved.
You are still trapped on this tin can with your rapist.
And then, she vomits.
The events of Mouthwashing but if Anya survived to the end. Now with a sequel/fix-it fic in future rust, future dust.

Summary
And then, like he was picking out a can of soup for that night’s dinner, Swansea plainly asked, “y’wanna die, Capitano? I can make it quick.”
The axe did not come down. It didn’t cleave for any of Curly’s vitals, didn’t swing for the space between his eyes. Instead, it idly tapped the floor, in repetitive, rhythmic knocks.
Thump. Thump. Thump.
…what?——
Swansea takes responsibility. It’s a long twenty years for them both.

Anya shakes her head no.

Summary
After Jimmy locks himself in the cryopod, the rest of the team manage to successfully work together and call for help. Now, they're on a sister ship voyaging home: Swansea has his family and Daisuke has his mother, but Anya feels herself oddly adrift. She sits and talks at a recovering Curly about what might come next.
