auri headcanons bc she is my favorite

-has a wildly successful account on the 2380 version of tiktok where she does cooking content and usually tells a story while she does it

-usually, there's clips of kal trying what she made at the end, but he can only be heard off camera (he's camera shy)

-is not scared of the syldrathi at the new syldrathi rebuilding movement

-loves miffy and hello kitty

-i think this is canon but she cries. a lot.

-fin is her ride or die bestie and they play animal crossing together. they usually whack each other with their nets and plant pitfall seeds outside each other's doors

-reads irish blessings during milestone events, for example, when she and kal moved into their house

-super outdoorsy! she loves to kayak, hike, rock climb, etc.

-she takes on a role as a geologist for the rebuilding movement and determines what sort of natural resources are available on the colony planet (ores, precious gems, good dirt for planting things)

-LOVES pride and prejudice

I'm absolute incapable of drawing ANYTHING, but slowly I'm willing to try to learn how to draw, because there is NOT A SINGLE FANART of LAE JONES and this should be considered a crime.

Renaissance Au with Auri and Kal (loosely inspired by Alphonse Mucha's art style)

[saedii-gilwraeth-simp]

*pushes memes towards you as an apology for being MIA*

[zila-madran-unnofficial]

no bc that part in the beginning of AB that's like

Auri: damn, i hope im not making Kal too uncomfortable by touching him all the time, i hope this isn't moving too fast for him Kal: We have not even kissed yet, void, this is literally torture

[what-life-im-a-fangirl]

Aurora Academy Cadet: *starstruck* Wow, what's it like working with Squad 312? Saedii: Imagine working with completely civilized, responsible, and mature people. Cadet: Okay... Saedii: Nothing like that.

The Amie Kaufman shelf has grown…

This stack is as tall as my knee

"What does the name you call me mean?" I ask.

"Be'shmai?" he replies. "There . . . there is no adequate human word for it."

"What about inadequate words, then?

His answer is very soft. "Beloved."

Aurora O'Malley & Kal Gilwraeth from Aurora Cycle.

(I love them, your honor. Maybe he reminds me of Mr. Spock a little bit. Someone see the Star Trek in it? Tyler is like a baby and more chaotic Kirk I suppose. Scarlet should be like a more flirty Uhura, Idk about Zila, and well... I lost the count. But Kal has so much of Spock and vulcans 👀: the pointy ears, the warrior species, the breeding mating season, being a little bit akward... yeah, i connected the dots. I didn't did shit)

kal flirting with the girl he just witnessed smear two fully armed soldiers across the wall like toothpaste, disable the power on an entire GSA ship, strangle his fellow legionnaire, crush titanium walls like paper, contain an ancient unknown telekinetic superpower without being quiet sure why and how to use it, and kill one of the most dangerous animals in the galaxy without touching it makes me incredibly concerned for his general well-being, and is also so sweet !! #lovewins

Kal: I regret getting you that blender for Christmas

Auri, sipping waffles: Why?

[every-tedious-beat]

in the clerb, we all fam

[serien-grl-22]

What they have learned

Aurie: I'm stronger than I ever could have imagined. Scarlett: I can live my life the way I want. Zila: My feelings matter! Cat: I am loved. Saedii: There is a better way. Kal: I am not my father. I can chose my own path. Finnian: I am not a burden. Tyler: Murder is okay if you say sorry.

[saedii-gilwraeth-simp]

Kal and Auri spoon

Fin and Scar just hug while asleep bc zero G

Zila sleeps on top of Nari to the point of suffocating her

Tyler and Saedii don’t cuddle but regardless of how they sleep, their faces are always looking at each other

[zila-madran-unnofficial]

ok so all of squad 312 (- auri) has their "tragic backstory" (lyergia plague, parents death, etc) and then a few years later tey joinn the aurora academy, but what happened in between?

bc like, Zila's parents died when she was 6, but she joined after she turned 13, so, was she in the care system, she's still never been to earth, was the care system in space? is there an intergalactic care system? did she still go to school? she talks about "i learnt everything i need to know when i was 6", so did her teachers, try to accomodate that?

[what-life-im-a-fangirl]

Scarlett: *watching the news* Someone tried to fight a squid at the aquarium today! Fin, Auri, and Saedii: *enter soaking wet and covered in ink* Fin: Well, maybe the squid was being a dick.

Stranger the Dreamer would be long-long to explain completly so the very short version is like

It's about a man Lazlo Strange, a war orphan and librarian in the world of Zosma who undergoes an expedition to the mystic lost city of Weep but discovers it is more than he believed it to be.

He also meets with this blue woman who i belive is a half-deity/deity and they dream of each other or something like that, my mind turned off from excitment when i found the book-

And it has such a sweet fanart too like look at this:(

And Aurora Rising.. I had to copy this because idk i like how they described the crew and stuff!

The year is 2380, and the graduating cadets of Aurora Academy are being assigned their first missions. Star pupil Tyler Jones is ready to recruit the squad of his dreams, but his own boneheaded heroism sees him stuck with the dregs nobody else in the Academy would touch . . .

A cocky diplomat with a black belt in sarcasm.

A sociopath scientist with a fondness for shooting her bunkmates.

A smart-ass techwiz with the galaxy's biggest chip on his shoulder.

An alien warrior with anger management issues.

A tomboy pilot who's totally not into him, in case you were wondering

And Ty's squad isn't even his biggest problem--that'd be Aurora Jie-Lin O'Malley, the girl he's just rescued from interdimensional space. Trapped in cryo-sleep for two centuries, Auri is a girl out of time and out of her depth. But she could be the catalyst that starts a war millions of years in the making, and Tyler's squad of losers, discipline-cases and misfits might just be the last hope for the entire galaxy.

Oh wow! That sounds really cool!

It also sounds like something that would sound really good in narrator form.

It would make a great audiobook indeed.
