tb5-heavenward:beautiful art from @slashpalooza for Talented Amateurs. Hey! sorry about the delay, I am on vacation in Canada and this one was slowed up a bit due to an art delay, which you can find below the cut (and thanks to the lovely @magicspiceman for a bit of a pinch hit in that department). Anyway! Possibly you have already read this one on ffnet, but here it is officially on Ao3, the end of this second arc of Talented Amateurs and one final lil twist. 21 - valentine (reprise) He makes it with about fifteen minutes to spare and brings TB1 in for a gentle, gossamer landing. Scott’s always careful when bringing TB1 in for a landing—but landing her here, he’s maybe more careful than usual. A warning label tacked up in the forward part of his cockpit reminds him to do his post-flights, and with only fifteen minutes to spare, he ignores it. There’ll be time for that later. His post-flights today can be his pre-flights tomorrow. For now, he’s late. The Andes are hours behind him, the team of climbers he’d rescued are safely back on the ground and in the hands of medical professionals. He hadn’t stuck around for the tearful thank yous, the weeping and the crying and the undying, unparalleled gratitude of people who owe him their lives. Scott’s owed so many lives by this point that some of the shine’s gone off. A day when someone swears to name their firstborn after him is no more remarkable than your average Thursday. He wonders how many people actually followed through on that one, how many little Scotts he’s got trailing around the world behind him. Something about the thought is somehow deeply uncomfortable, and so he’s pretty sure he prefers not to know. It’s not a Thursday, anyway. (click through!) Keep reading I love Jane. Here she is! -- source link
