re Never So Far Away
A/N: this is a villanelle based on dust on the wind's " Never So Far Away ", as a thank you for her work re the SSSWC. Her fic is a postscript to the episode "Operation Tiger", is in the supernatural category and takes place in Hogan's quarters.
If you haven't read dust's tales, I thoroughly recommend them all:-)
