Summary
Ten years after Aslan Jade Callenreese is nearly fatally stabbed on the snowy streets of New York City, he quietly traverses a white and yellow room inside his and Eiji's house in the calm countryside of Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Ten years after the love of his life stumbles into an underground bar and sweetly asks to hold his gun without a fragment of fear in his eyes, the two of them are preparing to welcome a brand new bundle of joy into their lives, and they couldn't be more excited if they tried...
But, especially in the American's case, he could count on one hand the number of times when his anxiety skyrocketed like this, to the point that all of the adrenaline coursing through his veins is fuel which propels the spaceship of spiralling thoughts to explore exoplanets that no human has ever discovered. Twenty years after he began being abused, and ten years after he cradled Skipper's dying body in his arms, Ash Lynx no longer exists; he is merely a frightened shell of a man who is questioning his capabilities and whether he really should be a parent.
After all of these years, can he truly love a child unconditionally, with his heartstrings invincible and eternally attached?
