You must dedicate your whole life to this idea: you are the caretaker of every single person on this ship. They are your responsibility. You can never show weakness in front of them: you are their str...
We’re so close we could touch. All it would take is for me to reach out my hand. But neither of us makes a move.
This ship is built on secrets; it runs on secrets, he says, tiny droplets of spittle flying from his mouth to my face. And if you keep asking about them, you'll see how far I'm willing to go to keep m...

¡Serás idiota! -dice golpeándome de nuevo-. ¿Para qué quiero un planeta si tú no estás?
You always think that drowning is loud. In the movies, if someone drowns they scream, they churn water. Everyone notices a drowning person in movies.Sofia looked down, and I though she was crying, but...

Orion says it’s human nature. It’s not, I think.It’s not, Victria says.I look at her, surprised.If it was, I’d be like them, she says, nodding at the couple by the steps. Well, frex. She’s right. But...
