Patience & Empathy

Rules: Share the first lines of ten of your most recent fics and tag ten people. If you have written less than ten, don’t be shy and share anyway.

So, I've been writing more prompts recently, for SFA and FAM/STC, so here goes:

The Long Walk (STC): “You are late again, comrade.”

Eyes and Ears (STC): Subject 0378: Margaret Madison

Mrs Nikulova (STC): "“Welcome back to Star City, comrade. It is such a…shame that your removal was for something that was so unnecessary, and completely within your control."

Classified (SFA): Something fell from the sky.

Family Secrets (SFA): “Cadet Mandal, you demonstrated bravery, courage, and resilience in the face of great peril, and ensured two of your fellow cadets were able to receive medical attention that saved their lives.”

A Slice of Lemon (SFA): Zeeren Kelrec was not, like his cadets and fellow instructors, enjoying the respite of the summer break.

The Next Chapter (SFA): The Apollo Retirement Community was not where Margo had envisioned spending her later years. 

Air Conditioning (FAM): They could put a lunar base on the Moon. They could send a crew to Mars. But could Margo Madison fix the JSC air conditioning in a reasonable time frame?

Love Match (SFA): "Not every marriage needs to be a love match," Kelrec offered from across Nahla's office. "After all, ours wasn't."

To Have and To Hold (SFA): Zeeren Kelrec did not care much for socialising.
