Summary: Keith and Regris make a startling discovery on one of their missions.

Because what Shiro needs is another strange problem to deal with.
Originally published in the Zarkon Zine Long Live the Emperor, which you can find here. I am planning to expand this story beyond what was included in the zine, because clearly, I don't have enough multi-chapter fics to work on. But also, I had ideas!
The Baby Zarkon AU originates from these sketches I drew last year.

Prince Alfor considers the negotiations long overdue, but he’s been completely left out of the talks. He is next in line for the throne, and he longs for peace as much as any Altean. Alfor wants to do whatever is necessary to bring the war to an end. Possibly, he should sit back and do as he's told—but Alfor isn't that kind of prince.

Summary: The war may be over, but there’s no end in sight to the work that still needs to be done. Shiro is left with lingering questions, but he remembers one person who might be able to answer a few of them—
Continuing his unusual (and probably unwise) experiment with the Sendak hologram, Shiro tries to start a dialogue, and the mixed results lead him to a decision.
Here's a preview for one of my fics in Long Live the Emperor ( @zarkonzine ), which will be available to download, free of charge, on Feb 1. There is no Zarkon in this preview, but trust me, he’s in the story!
"Something's there," said Keith.
Regris ran another quick scan, then checked and double-checked the console. "You think? No readings."
Keith shook his head. "No, which is why I think there's something there."
Regris reflected on this, before nodding. "I see what you mean."
It wasn't nothing that had brought them there. They had detected faint signals indicating Galra activity in this quadrant. There was no known reason for the Empire to send ships through this region. There were no charted Galra installations or settlements within this star system. The orange-red star at its center reigned over seven seemingly uninhabited planets.
Uninhabited, but not without signs of civilization. A more intense sweep of the system revealed what appeared to be a derelict space station. It was an old structure, orbiting the fifth planet's largest moon. A preliminary scan indicated that its external design wasn't consistent with Galra technology, but couldn't identify what civilization had constructed it. To all appearances, it had been abandoned long ago, its hull battered, its lights gone dark.
"Should we go in closer, then?" Regris was preparing to do just that, making the necessary calculations at the helm of their small cruiser.
Keith was about to agree, when he felt coldness gather between his shoulder blades, rising up into his neck. "Wait. Can you do another scan?"
"For what?"
"I don't know." Keith's instinctive caution was too vague for him to be more precise. "For anything dangerous."
"Anything it is," said Regris, fingers moving nimbly over the controls. "Let's see, computer, do we have anything for Keith—? Ah."
"What is it?" Keith demanded when Regris broke off.
"Mines. Ghost mines, which is why they didn't show up on the basic scan. If we'd gone straight ahead— That wouldn't have ended well."
Keith scowled. The Empire wouldn't waste ghost mines on nothing. "Let's go in."
"Charting a course around the mines."
The course was not an easy one, maintaining stealth while avoiding the deadly mines. Keith half expected enemy ships to appear at any moment, but none arrived. The base might have been more than it seemed, but it was apparently abandoned. What was being hidden here, and who was it hidden from? No secure Galra installation would be left unmanned like this. It was as if the secret of it was so deep, it was hidden from even the Empire.

Shiro decides to restart the hologram of Sendak, to see if that can help him put old ghosts to rest. The result of his experiment is completely unexpected. And soon becomes entirely too complicated.
Sendak sketches! The first is just Sendak surrounded by stars, as he should be. The second is Film Critic Sendak complaining to his husband (from my ridiculous Sendak Review AU). Love him. Still taking digital doodle requests!
