Douglas was always the class prankster, in love in the Overseer's daughter. But when his dad leaves the vault and shatters the thin illusion of security, he's left with no choice but to leave the vault and find him. However, an act of kindness means he is no longer the Lone Wanderer. Warning: Will contain more mature themes than other stories I have published.

Interactions between the crew of the Normandy and the Shepard twins! (Just noticed that the first one was deleted, not sure what that was about)

"We had grown into one another somewhere along the way. We were officially a team." (Shannon A. Thompson, Take Me Tomorrow)

"It is well that war is so terrible, otherwise we should grow too fond of it." (Robert E. Lee)

"My family is my strength and my weakness." -Aishwarya Rai Bachchan

A dedication to the two constants in Shepard's Life. Implied Shep/Tali but mostly friendship.
