Title: Ὕστερον πρότερον (2/2)
Pairing: Mel/Ace
Rating: PG-13
Words: ~4000
Summary: The locals of Epsilon Xi have a troubled future ahead of them. Or possibly behind them. Mel's getting a bit muddled with all this, actually.
Author's Notes: Written for the dw_femslash ficathon, for glinda_penguin, who wanted crossing of timestreams and mythology, and gave me this quote: "They have not wanted Peace at all; they have wanted to be spared war - as though the absence of war was the same as peace." - Dorothy Thompson. The title is Greek, and translates as "The latter one first". Further notes on a few small bits of Greek used in the fic are under the cut. Sorry again for the delay - RL sucks. Many thanks to agapi42 for her fast and helpful beta work! :o)
