Jack of Harts

Dad retired some decades before The War and came home with a grand spanking new wife to show off to his family. Technically his first and only wife, and absolutely the first girl he settled down for. They spent a few years touring the various Carter, Hansen, Christensen, and other sen family homes all over Earth and beyond. Going fishing with his brothers, cousins, and such. Spending time with his mama. All the things a man that has served for the better part of two centuries needs to do to slow back down and rejoin the world he left behind when he signed his life on the dotted line. And Mom was just the kind of partner he needed to help. She held him through the hard nights. She walked at his side through the bright days. She saved him.
