a/n: Wanted to show Navarro some love! Thanks for reading!

As you approach Navarro's chair, you catch a glimpse of her head peeking out from behind the backrest. Sneaking up behind her, you wrap your arms around her and plant a soft kiss on her cheek.

Your fingers glide over her head, feeling the short prickly hairs of her buzzcut tickle your palm. She lets out a contented hum and squeezes one of your arms before returning to the controls.

You nuzzle into the crook of her neck, peppering it with light kisses.

Navarro lets out light chuckles at the ticklish sensation, before she narrows her eyes at you with amusement. “What are you doin’?”

You simply shrug and press your lips against her neck again, finding a sensitive spot that makes her gasp.

A wet sound echoes in the room as you break away from her neck and give her cheek another kiss. Your voice is a mumble, “Nothin’, just love you.”

She scoffs out a small laugh, rolling her neck towards you, grin on her pretty face, “I love you too baby, but I know you and you get all sweet and touchy when you want somethin’”

Loosening your grip around her, you push away slightly to give her a pointed look. Your lips purse together in an attempt to hide a smile as you speak. “That is not true.”

Navarro lets go of the controls and swivels her chair to face you, grasping onto your thighs and pulling you onto her lap. You sit up straight, fiddling with the necklace around her neck. Staring at your fidgeting fingers, you watch her in your peripheral. She observes you with narrowed eyes.

Letting out a sigh, she wraps her arms loosely around your hips and plays with the hem of your shirt. With a knowing tone, Navarro brings your eyes up to hers, “Is this about the ship? About you wanting to touch everything?”

Lifting your chin and giving her a small smile, you reply, “Aaaand what if it is?”

Rolling her eyes with a small grin, Navarro leans back in her chair. "I told you I'd teach you eventually, but I've been busy," she explains. "Do the flashing buttons satisfy some part of your ADHD brain?" she teases, not unkindly.

Letting out a frustrated groan, you throw your head back. “Oh, come on dude, please. We’re right here, you can show me now.”

Fluttering your eyelashes and pouting in an exaggerated manner, you plead, “Please. Pretty please, baby. Can I touch the buttons?”

Navarro chuckles, shaking her head at you. "You're impossible, you know that?" She sighs, but there's a fond smile playing on her lips. "Alright, alright… I guess teaching you won't hurt. You know…Unless you fuck us, and then it does, in fact, end up hurting us."

You scoff and roll your eyes, responding with a sarcastic laugh before your expression transforms into one of pure joy. Navarro softly pushes you off her lap, standing up and guiding you towards the pilot's seat with a gentle hand on your back.

"Okay, sit down," she instructs, and you eagerly comply. Navarro leans over you, her chest pressed against your back as she points to various controls on the panel before you. "Now, pay attention. This isn't a toy."

You nod enthusiastically, drinking in every word as Navarro begins to explain the basics. Her voice is low and soothing in your ear as she describes the function of each button and lever.

You can feel her warmth bleed into your shoulder as she leans over you. “You got that baby?”

Biting your lip, you give her a hesitant nod. In response, she gives your cheek a kiss. Her voice is low and soothing. “I’ll be right here the entire time baby. I was teasing earlier. Kind of. If something goes wrong, I can fix it.”

With a heavy breath, you give her a quick kiss and keep your lips pressed to hers as you mumble, “Thank you. You’re so fucking hot. I love you.”

Navarro laughs and nudges your head with hers before she steps away.

"Alright, hotshot," Navarro says with a smirk. "Let's see what you've learned. Start with the basics - power up the main thrusters."

You take a deep breath, feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness as your hands hover over the controls. Navarro's presence behind you is reassuring, but you can't help but feel the weight of responsibility. You glance back at Navarro, who gives you an encouraging nod.

Taking a deep breath, you flip the switch to engage the thrusters. A low hum fills the cockpit as the engines come to life. Pressing a series of buttons, you bite your lip to restrain your giddiness.

"Good," Navarro praises. "Now, ease the throttle forward. Gently."

You grasp the throttle, feeling the vibrations through your palm. Slowly, you push it forward. The ship lurches slightly, and you tense.

"It's okay," Navarro soothes, placing a steadying hand on your shoulder. "That's normal. Keep going.”

"Whoa," you breathe, a grin spreading across your face.

Navarro chuckles. "Not bad. Now, try adjusting our course slightly. Use the joystick on your right."

As your hand reaches for the joystick, you feel a familiar warmth next to you. It's Navarro, her body pressed against yours as she guides your hand to tilt the joystick slightly to the left. Her voice whispers in your ear, "Good girl, baby. Now set it on autopilot."

Your breath hitches and your face flushes as you quickly press the autopilot button.

Turning to Navarro, she meets you with a passionate kiss and your arms wrap tightly around each other. Detaching from her soft lips, you mumble, "I like when you tell me what to do."

Navarro chuckles, her eyes sparkling with affection. "I like telling you what to do... sometimes. We'll save more lessons for later, but you did really good, baby.” You can't help but grin at her words.

Feeling emboldened by her praise, you perk up in her arms. "Maybe one day I'll be even better than you."

Scoffing playfully, Navarro shakes her head. But before she can respond, you continue teasingly, “But seriously, you look incredibly hot while piloting this ship. I'd hate to ruin that by making you a passenger princess.”

She responds by pulling you in for another kiss, laughter rumbling in her chest.

The smile on each of your faces don’t fade as you continue to tease and hold each other.

Death order predictions for Alien Romulus:

1) Navarro: we already know they get chestburster-ed

2) Bjorn: maybe gets torn up by the Navarro-Xenomorph

3) Kay

4) Tyler

5) Andy: maybe a heroic sacrifice?

6) Rain Carradine: I’m actually 50/50 here. I don’t know why but I got the vibe of a horror movie where no one lives, especially since this is set before “Aliens”. Either we get -

a. happy ending and she gets rescued by Amanda Ripley

b. happy ending because she got away on her own

c. bittersweet ending since she gets rescued, only for it to be revealed her rescuers are Weyland-Yutani (which works as a retcon in “Aliens” as to why Carter Burke was sent to recover the alien eggs despite the company not believing Ripley’s story, it’s because another survivor told them a similar story)

d. she gets rescued, but is revealed to be impregnated by the last chestburster

e. sacrifices herself to destroy the ship

I made this quick Navarro sketch right after the finale, she is so inspiring! Basking in the sun with a coffee is all I want for her☀️

Aileen Wu as Navarro in Alien: Romulus (2024)

[idontcarecarebear]

Let me tell you something if I was in the alien movie Romulus I would be holding the fuck out of Andy's hand, skipping down the corridors, and avoiding the aliens from face fucking me.

You want to let this pregnant bitch die my king, then let her fucking die.

Want me to kill Bjorn, the cousin fucker for you, with pleasure!

I read a post somewhere that the three main ladies in Alien Romulus all have different style of haircuts that Ripley had throughout the Alien films.

Kay has long curly hair like Ripley did in Alien.

Navarro has a shaved head like Ripley did in Alien 3.

Rain has short straight/wavy hair like the Ripley clone 8 had in Alien: Resurrection.

I thought that was cool.

Coming Out

Rain Carradine x Trans!Reader

Description: With the help of your girlfriend Rain, you come out to your family.

Word Count: 959

The night had settled in over Jackson’s Star, the endless rain creating a steady rhythm against the metal roof of the compound. Inside, the small common room was warm, the flickering light from the heater casting soft shadows on the walls. It was one of those rare evenings when everyone was together—Tyler, Kay, Bjorn, Navarro, Rain, and her synthetic brother, Andy—all gathered around the worn table, sharing stories and laughter after a long day’s work.

But tonight, something weighed heavily on your mind, something that had been building inside you for a long time. You had spent countless nights lying awake, turning the thoughts over and over in your head, trying to find the right moment, the right words. Rain had been your anchor through it all, her unwavering support giving you the strength to finally face what you had been avoiding for so long.

As the conversation flowed around you, you took a deep breath, feeling Rain’s reassuring hand on your shoulder. She gave you a small, encouraging smile, and you knew that this was the moment—you had to tell them.

“Hey, everyone,” you began, your voice a little shaky but filled with determination. The room quieted as everyone turned to look at you, their faces curious and attentive. “There’s something I need to say. Something important.”

Tyler, your older brother, frowned slightly, sensing the seriousness in your tone. “What is it?”

You took another deep breath, feeling Rain’s hand give a gentle squeeze of support. “I’ve been thinking a lot about who I am, and… I’ve realized that I’m not who I’ve been pretending to be. I’ve been struggling with this for a long time, and I know now that I’m a guy. I’m trans, and I want to start using he/him pronouns.”

There was a moment of silence as your words hung in the air, and you held your breath, waiting for their reactions. The fear of rejection, of misunderstanding, clawed at your insides, but you forced yourself to stay calm, to hold on to Rain’s support.

Then, slowly, Tyler broke into a smile, his eyes filled with warmth and understanding. “Hey… no, I mean, yeah, of course!” he corrected himself, chuckling a bit. “We love you, man. We’re with you, all the way.”

Kay was next, tears welling up in her eyes as she stood up and crossed the room to wrap you in a tight hug. “I’m so proud of you,” she whispered, her voice thick with emotion. “You’re so brave. And we’ll support you every step of the way, okay?”

Bjorn and Navarro exchanged looks, both of them grinning before they gave you matching nods. “Hell yeah,” Bjorn said, his voice full of his usual good-natured humor. “You’re still our cousin, and that’s all that matters. We’ve got your back.”

Navarro nodded in agreement, her grin widening. “You’re family, man. Nothing changes that.”

Andy, who had been quietly observing, stepped forward, his synthetic eyes softening as he spoke. “I w-want you to kn-know that I’m h-h-here for y-y-you, t-too. Y-you’re s-s-still you, and th-that’s wh-what m-matters.”

Rain, who had been by your side the whole time, smiled, her eyes shining with pride and love. “I knew they’d support you,” she said softly, her voice filled with warmth. “We’re all here for you, baby”

You let out a breath you didn’t realize you had been holding, relief washing over you as you looked around at the faces of the people you loved, the people who had always been there for you. The weight you had been carrying for so long felt lighter now, like you could finally breathe.

But you knew that life on Jackson’s Star wasn’t easy. Everything here was hard and difficult, and while your family’s support meant the world to you, there were still challenges ahead.

Kay, who worked in the medical center, was the first to bring it up. “I can source some testosterone shots for you,” she said, her voice gentle but practical. “But they’re expensive. We’ll need to figure out how to cover the cost.”

You nodded, already having thought about this. “I don’t mind spending my hours on it,” you said firmly. “I’m willing to take up extra shifts, whatever it takes. This is important to me.”

Tyler’s brow furrowed, concern etched on his face. “You don’t have to do it all on your own, brother. We can help.”

“Yeah,” Bjorn added, his voice serious for once. “We’ll all pitch in.”

Rain squeezed your hand again, her support unwavering. “We’ll figure it out together,” she said, her voice filled with determination. “You’re not alone in this.”

Kay nodded, her eyes full of love for her little brother. “We’ll make it work. I’ll do everything I can to help you.”

You smiled, feeling a warmth in your chest that had nothing to do with the heater in the room. This was your family, and they were with you, every step of the way. The path ahead might be difficult, but with their support—and Rain’s love—you knew you could face whatever came next.

The evening continued with a sense of renewed closeness, the bond between all of you stronger than ever. You talked about the future, about the challenges ahead, but also about the hope you felt now that you had finally taken that step, now that you could be who you truly were.

And as you sat there, surrounded by the people who loved you, you knew that no matter how hard life on Jackson’s Star could be, you were ready to face it. You were Y/N, a man finally becoming himself, and with your family and Rain by your side, you could take on anything.

Final B (Navarro x lectora)

Masterlist de mi autoría

¿No se esperaban un shot de la pelada? ¿No? Bueno acá está jsjsjs. La amo casi tanto como al hermano (pero Bjorn es Bjorn obvis)

Segundo final del shot demasiado tarde

Sinopsis: Bjorn fue rechazado por completo y ____ lo evitaba a toda costa. Fue por esta razón que el chico buscó en su hermana una soplona. Alguien que pudiera conseguirle información o incluso alguna chance con ____. Pero lejos de ser un nexo entre Bjorn y la chica, Navarro terminó tomando cierto interés por ella.

Era viernes por la tarde cuando ____ salió de las oficinas. Habían algunos problemas con las reparaciones de los cargueros, y como era la única que terminaba sus tareas temprano, la joven fue la encargada de salir a revisar los talleres. Fue así que terminó en el área designada de Navarro y Kay.

—¡____!—la joven de cabello rizado la abrazó enseguida—. Que bueno verte.—

—Siento que es demasiado cariño, nos vimos anoche, querida.—Kay rió al separarse.

—Es raro verte tan temprano aqui.—Navarro se acercó—. ¿Sucedió algo?—

—Vengo por ese grandulón.—señaló el carguero a sus espaldas—. ¿Ya vuela? Los supervisores lo quieren en el aire esta noche sin falta.—

Navarro sonrió enseguida, y con un vago gesto de cabeza la invitó a subir.

—¿Es tu transportador designado?—

—De los cuatro, en realidad. Es por familia... Algo así. Pero yo soy la piloto fija.—

____ entró a aquella cabina, sorprendiéndose de la cantidad de botones y palancas que tenía.

—... ¿Tú haces que esta cosa vuele?—____ se sentó en uno de los asientos, Navarro en el restante.

—Sep, es mi bebé... Y por supuesto que ya vuela.—

A la chica le pareció linda la forma en que ____ curioseaba todo, con cuidado de no tocar nada.

Por un momento recordó a Bjorn, y su pedido de sacarle información a ____.

—¿Puedo... Preguntarte algo?—la chica la miró—. ¿Tú y Bjorn...?—

—Eso ya terminó, Nav... Asi que dile que no tiene chances... Y que deje de meterte a ti en el medio.—Navarro sonrió enseguida—. Cambiando de tema, si ya arreglaste esta cosa y tienes tiempo libre ¿Quieres tomar un café en casa? Le diré a Kay también.—

Después de aquel día, el trío de mujeres comenzó a reunirse cada tarde en casa de ____. Se la pasaban bien, se divertían. Y tal vez se conocían desde hace meses, pero en esos últimos días formaron una amistad bastante bonita.

Ese fin de semana, Kay se engripó, y por pedido de Tyler, la chica se quedó en casa. Solo Navarro y ____ se reunieron en esa oportunidad, y por ser fin de semana, decidieron que era mejor juntarse por la noche.

—Él sigue preguntando por ti.—Navarro picaba aquellas verduras, mirando de reojo a la mujer que picaba la carne.

—Que lo siga haciendo, me importa un bledo.—La piloto resopló con gracia—. No quiero volver a verlo.—

—Bien, le transmitiré el mensaje... ¿Tal vez ya tengas a otro interés amoroso en el radar?—escucho como la chica reía bajito—. Si le digo que tienes novio, dejará de insistir... o morirá.—

—En estos momentos, lo único que me interesa es trabajar, tener dinero... Y tomar un rico café contigo y Kay cada tarde, hablando mal de nuestros compañeros de trabajo.—la miró, sonriendo al ver que Navarro ya la estaba mirando a ella—. Asi que mi interés son ustedes...—

—Aww, que linda.—

Después de cenar y tomar una que otra cerveza, ____ le confesó a Navarro una tontería que llevaba días pensando.

—¿Nunca volaste? ¿Nada?—____ negó.

—Por eso quiero que me lleves a dar un paseo, en el carguero.—la miró emocionada—. Solo un ratito, si alguien nos llama la atención, yo inventaré alguna excusa.—

—¿Segura? Estoy algo ebria.—

—Bueno, moriremos en el intento. No importa.—____ se levantó del sofá—. ¿Vamos en bicicleta?—

____ se sentó en el asiento de acompañante, abrochándose enseguida el cinturón. Navarro no tardó en sentarse a su lado.

—¿El viento frío de camino aquí te hizo espabilar un poco?—

—Algo. Sí... ¿Quieres solo volar por aquí cerca o subimos hasta la estratósfera?—____ la miró de inmediato.

—¿Se puede?—Navarro alzó las cejas divertida, asintiendo apenas—. ¡Pues vamos, Nav!—

—Tú eres la jefa... Arriba entonces.—

Ver la emoción de ____ con toda la preparación previa era gratificante para Navarro, quien finalmente entendía lo adorable que podía ser la mujer con algunas cervezas encima.

Aún así, compartir un café seguía siendo su cosa favorita.

Solo unos minutos después, ya estaban orbitando la colonia. Y para mayor diversión de ____, Navarro desactivó la gravedad. La mujer flotaba entre risas por la sala común, haciendo torpes intentos para mantenerse quieta.

—Tu cabello está todo loco.—Navarro la acompañó en la sala tras activar el piloto automático.

—Tú no tienes ese problema ¿no?—ambas rieron con esa tontería—. Es broma. Adoro tu no cabello.—las manos de ____ se pasearon por la cabeza de Navarro, riendo bajito al sentir los pinchecitos de su apenas saliente cabello.

—Bueno, ya fue suficiente. Si seguimos flotando con lo que hemos bebido y tomado, terminaremos vomitando toda la sala.—Navarro se alejó, y ____ la siguió hacia la cabina—. Pero puedo mostrarte todo el lugar.—

—Yo te sigo, Nav. Guíame.—

El par de mujeres recorrió la parte superior. Sala, cabina. Sala de acople. Y cuando bajaron al área inferior, ____ se sorprendió al ver que tenian hasta dormitorios.

—Muchas veces tenemos que llevar cargas al otro lado de Jackson, pasan días hasta que volvemos a casa.—____ miró la pequeña habitación que supo era de Navarro—. Por suerte ya no nos asignan envíos, no es tan divertido.—

—... Bueno, yo tengo que ver con eso.—la chica husmeó el pequeño escritorio—. Bjorn me lo pidió hace meses, que tú ya no seas asignada a los transportes. Asi que yo me encargo de mantenerlos a ti y a los demás en nuestro sector... ¿Qué?—

Navarro la miró con una leve sonrisa.

—¿Tú eres la que nos asigna las tareas cerquita a casa?—____ asintió, sorprendiéndose al ser abrazada por la chica—. ¡Mi salvadora!—

—¡Ya, quítate!—intentó alejarla, pero un ataque de risa y el fuerte abrazo de Navarro se lo impidieron.

—Ahora entiendo porqué mi hermano se aferra tanto a ti, eres maravillosa...—se separó enseguida al asimilar lo que acababa de decir—. Lo siento... Comentario innecesario.—

—... No creo ser maravillosa.—

—Ah, lo eres. Eres amable, divertida...—Navarro sonrió al ver que las mejillas de la chica se sonrojaban—... No sé si mi hermano te merezca. No es tan bueno.—

—... ¿Qué hay de ti? ¿Lo eres?—

—¿Qué?—

____ la besó de repente, separándose casi de inmediato. Pero Navarro no tardó en devolverle el beso. Ninguna de las dos dijo nada, solo compartieron el momento. Tal vez aún tenían alcohol en sangre, pero el sentimiento era real. Se gustaban, se gustaban mucho. Y de no ser por la estridente alarma que indicaba la cercanía de asteroides, la cosa habría escalado a más.

Se separaron enseguida, pero el sonrojo total en sus rostros evidenciaba lo que acababa de pasar.

—... ¿Te... Parece buena idea esquivar la muerte inminente?—habló ____ al ver que Navarro no dejaba de mirarla.

—Oh, sí... Sí, claro. Volvamos a la cabina.—sonrió avergonzada, invitándola a salir del cuarto.

Caminaron en un silencio extraño hasta las escaleras, y enseguida subieron a la sala. Se acomodaron en la cabina, finalmente esquivando los asteroides.

—Creo... Que será mejor volver ya.—Navarro activó algunos comandos—. De seguro vendrán los supervisores al hangar si no-

—No quiero que hagamos de cuenta que esto no pasó.—____ la miró ansiosa—. ¿tú sí?—

—Claro que no, me gustó... Tú me gustas.—la vio sonreír con cierto alivio—. Pero Bjorn... No lo tomará bien.—

—Esto es entre tú y yo, piloto... No incluyas a nadie más.—____ pasó la mano por su nuca rapada, sonriendo al sentir los pinchecitos de su corto cabello—. Volvamos a casa... Después de que los supervisores nos suspendan.—

—¡Dijiste que evitarías eso!—Navarro rió bajito al ver que la chica se encogía de hombros divertida—. Diablos... Bueno, valió la pena.—

—Tú lo dijiste, piloto... una linda primera cita.—

Algunos días después, cuando Bjorn visitó a su hermana en el taller, se emocionó al ver a ____ tambien allí. Pero las repentinas esperanzas de poder acercarse se evaporaron al ver como su hermana recibía un besito fugaz de la mujer, justo antes de entregarle un vasito de agua.

Ahora finalmente entendía porqué Navarro ya casi no dormía en casa...
