Summary
Booker has no idea what's happening. One minute there's a strange woman in his kitchen in Paris, the next he's picking bits of himself off the kill-floor in South Sudan. Surely if he gets another shot at that nightmare, he'll do better this time, right?
Or: Booker Time Loop AU, he's stuck re-living of the events of the film, and he's barely holding anything together.

We Have Engaged the Borg: The Oral History of the Battle of Wolf 359 by TranquilityPress

Summary
On stardate 43975.2, Starbase 23 received a distress signal from the New Providence research colony on Jouret IV. The garbled transmission spoke of a large cube-like vessel that had entered the system and destroyed the small number of colony defense ships. The last transmission before all contact was lost showed a massive, black monolithic shape slowly descending over the colony.
Although not widely known outside the upper echelons of Starfleet Command, this was the Borg: a powerful race of cybernetic lifeforms, first encountered a year prior by the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701D, c. J-L Picard) over 7,000 light-years away.
What was to follow over the following days would rock the Federation to its very core: the destruction of 39 starships at Wolf 359, the loss of over 11,000 sapients, and Earth – the seat of the UFP Government and home of Starfleet – threatened with total assimilation.”

Summary
She had let go of everything else; hope of a retrieval, hope of an apology, hope of seeing her sisters or her son again. It would be enough to know. She did not have to do anything with the knowledge. Ulis would understand. Surely he would.
"To the best of your knowledge, Othala— is the Archduke Maia alive and safe?”
Thara Celehar stared at her for a very long moment, his grip on her trembling fingers very firm. Then he said;
“Sister— he is.”

Summary
Aboard Galdor's warship, Glorfindel returns in triumph from a dangerous expedition deep into enemy territory. He has found Elrond's missing son, but all is not well: the Elf-child that was abducted by the Corsairs of Umbar is now a Man grown. War and darkness have left Elrohir deeply scarred, and he is not the mission's only casualty.
An alternate universe for the Under Strange Stars series, in which Elrohir goes with Glorfindel instead of running away from him after the events of Under Strange Stars. This story covers the events of ‘Northern Skies’, but it can be enjoyed without having read the original.
STORY COMPLETE
Many thanks to Grundy for all of her excellent beta-reading and brainstorming.
