Notes: Takes place pre-series

Challenge #88 Free Week; Challenge 84 Schrödinger
Reya: "I was just the last in a long line of scientists working on the project..."
Cameron: "The last is the one who gets it right."
Sam walked into her apartment and sleepwalked all the way to her bedroom. Someone else solved it. She dropped onto the bed, curling into a ball and staring at the wall. Two years of her life. Two years, working on the greatest puzzle known to man and someone else just walks in and... figures it out.
And when she asked when the first mission would be going through... "Sorry, Captain. You'll be sitting this one out."
Schrödinger climbed onto the bed, meowing at her to pet him. She pulled the orange tabby to her chest, holding him as she wept.

Challenge #88 Free Week; Challenge #86 Motorcycles
Janet hated Sam's bike. How dangerous it was, how likely an accident was, how Sam was just an inch away from death or serious injury every time she rode it.
But the upside... the silver lining to the storm cloud...
Those pants. Whenever Sam strutted out of the bedroom wearing those leather pants, her leather jacket loose around her shoulders... Janet forgave the obsession.
The best part about the pants was every time Janet saw her in them, she came up with another activity that would keep Sam off the bike for several hours.
It didn't involve wearing pants, however.
