Summary
Tragedy strikes and panic rises when Spensa's childhood stuffed teddy bear, Bloodletter, disappears. She becomes convinced someone is trying to sabotage her grand and glorious warrior reputation.
Naturally, a slightly out-of-control, somewhat insane interrogation worthy of Spensa Nightshade ensues. And of course, she had to drag poor Jorgen into it.

6 months after their victory against the Superiority, the humans of Detritus are thriving in their new-found prosperity. Skyward Flight is enjoying a well-deserved quiet life. However, they should have known better than to expect peace to last.

A new threat has emerged, and soon the flight represents the galaxy's only hope as the world as they know it is on the verge of collapse.

Summary
Jorgen returns to his quarters late—drained, overworked, and bone-deep exhausted. He hasn’t eaten. He hasn’t rested. He’s barely keeping it together.
He doesn’t expect Spensa to show up at his door with warm food and gentler eyes than she usually lets herself wear. He definitely doesn’t expect her to stay.
Two people, holding on. Two people, guiding each other back to where it’s safe. Where the weight can finally fall away.
Because when everything feels like too much—what else is there but to lean on the one who never lets you fall?

But this time—maybe that wasn't enough.She can’t save him. But she’ll never stop trying.
Even when he breaks.
Even when she does.A horrible alternate way Defiant could have gone.

Summary
Spensa crashes. It’s bad. Worse than anyone thought possible.
Now she’s broken—ribs shattered, lung collapsed, silent in a hospital bed. Skyward Flight is left in the waiting room—clutching each other, falling apart, and trying not to shatter completely.
And Jorgen? He holds her hand and begs the stars to give him more time.
Medical Centered. Quiet breakdowns. Love in all its forms—loud, silent, messy.
Because what are you supposed to do… when your whole world forgets how to breathe?
