Pairings: A/M, implied past A/Gwen.
Word count: 56K
Rating: R
Warnings: Violence, war, torture, disturbing historical references, implied character deaths in the past, mental disorder. Also flying saucers.
(I feel like I should explain about the flying saucers so here's a link though it will probably only increase the level of WTF: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_flying_saucers )
Notes: many, many thanks to my heroic beta
ghost_guessed, who wouldn't give up on me despite my constant flailing and was a delight to work with, as always. Also to
lolafeist,
ella_bane,
scribblemoose and
gilli_ann for their support and invaluable advice and for holding my hand through all of this, and to
louiselux,
puddingcat,
daegaer and
toscas_kiss who read this in Tallin hotel room in between sharing beer, game and adventures with me.
Huge thanks to
the_muppet, for being a wonderfully supportive mod and for hooking me up with the inimitable
amphigoury.
amphigoury agreed to pinch-hit the art at the last minute, read 50K of terrifyingly rough draft in one go and magically conjured three magnificent pieces and also the gifs embedded throughout the story. I don't know how, okay. It's a miracle. Thank you! It's been such a privilege to work with you and to get to know you.
