Fic and time

This weekend, no matter what, I am finishing this chapter and getting myself going on the next. Some things got changed around a bit because of Destined Crossroad, but most of it is minor and I can edit it later. Other stuff gave me inspiration. And other stuff, namely the fact that Astra talks (and the way the dub just includes pauses in dialogue that were probably natural and fluid in Japanese but definitely don't come off that way in English), does not contradict what I've actually written. So I am free to play with my headcanons.
