Sort of a prequel to Bitter, but can be read on its own. Mike-centric. Will be how Mike and Christine got their start and how they built such a dysfunctional marriage(Bitter reference). Strong T warning.

This story takes place after Season 3 then it will be AU. Tom doesn't go to Greece, but he has a breakdown. This is the story of putting him back together. It will be told from Tom and Ashley Chandler, Mike Slattery, and Kat Nolan's points of view. Seasons 1-3 happened and then it will be my own story line going forward. Rated T for language and violence for now. May change.

A series of stories under 500 words related to The Last Ship. Many, but not all, will be holiday related.

A lot of anger and poor choices drove them apart years before, so was there any chance that they could rebuild a marriage after being reunited? Mike/Christine centric. Rated T at the moment but that could change.

This is another version of Breaking Through, but now through Slattery's eyes. It follows the same story line as those but adds in Mike's relationship with Andrea Garnett as it develops along the way. It's a little AU during the mid to end Season two but doesn't really follow the show as I made my own version. This story has three versions from different character perspective!

Five years after the successful vaccine trial, Kara Foster struggles to come to terms with all that she lost and move on with her life. AU. TW for discussion of miscarriage.

On the fifth anniversary of the James' departure to the Arctic, Mike has a surprise visitor. Starting with a solid T rating but it could change later. Warnings of mentions of abuse, rape...basically all my usual stuff.

Six months after the Nathan James had sunk, Mike was retired and living alone in an apartment. Mike ends up helping a young family out by babysitting the two boys so their mom could work. Along the way he finally faces the demons of losing his family while trying to help this new family keep on their feet. NOTE RATING CHANGE WITH CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO. Has Tomsha in later chapters.

Ten years after their arrival in St. Louis, Rachel Scott continues her work to eradicate the Red Flu.

Post Season 5. Mike's lost his north stars. Can he find them again.

A few "cut" scenes from Once in Forever.

The US faces its biggest threat since the famine as the Gran Columbian Empire rises to power. The crew of the Nathan James must fight to protect their country against the threat of invasion, while Chandler finds himself targeted by their leader Tavo. An alternate version of Season 5, part of the New China verse. Tomsha centric.

A series of one-shots about the search for family and friends by various individuals from The Last Ship. Each chapter is independent, and may not be canon compliant.

This is a series of one-shots about the crew of the Nathan James. Originally they focused on Kara Foster and Danny Green, but have grown to include a number of other characters. These will not be in chronological order.

Tom finally confronts the fact his wife has died, and Rachel is there to comfort him. How will their relationship evolve going forward? There is a mirror story from Rachel's point of view with the same name! Happy reading! Also, a version from Slattery's point of view!

Tom finally confronts fact his wife is dead with Rachel. Can she help him deal with the pain and move forward? Changed the rating on this for chapters going forward. I changed the name to reflect this is Rachel's point of view. There is now a mirror story from Tom's point of view! This story has three versions from different character perspective (Rahcel, Tom, Slattery)

Maddie Rawlins is given an impossible new assignment that will have lifelong ramifications.

Sasha Cooper did not make it to Asia to investigate the outbreak of Red-Flu. Instead, something kept her state-side. Canon divergent AU set in mid-Season 2. Slow burn. Word count sans review responses: 147K. Part I of II.

Post retirement-Mike needs something. He never imagined it would be a young single mother with two adorable kids. Could become M-rated at some point. Also mentions of domestic violence and sexual abuse.

Takes place after the last season. AU as Tex Nolan is alive and well. Also contains an OC. Mike Slattery is in charge of training the new recruits. Tex is helping him recruit the instructors. He recruits his old friend Second Place Baker. More than the odd nickname intrigues Mike. NOTE RATING CHANGE FOR CHAPTER SEVEN AND FORWARD.

A long-kept secret comes back to haunt Mike after he's lost his entire family.

They never intended on breaking their marriage vows, but will six years do it? Mentions of rape, torture and emotional abuse.

Sasha really didn't need Mr Tall, Dark and Handsome messing up her life.

Wolf wasn't actually expecting Sasha to kiss him better. But he certainly didn't mind.

She was beginning to lose hope, but hope has a way of showing up when one least expects it.
