Hello everyone!

I’d like to thank everyone that participated this year. You all are amazing!

But I'm sorry to inform you that at the moment, there are no plans for Glambert’s Big Bang to come back next year. Due to circumstances that will hinder participation, we have decided to put the project on hold for a little while. For those of you wanting to write a big bang, there are other big bang challenges being organized for you to participate in.

I'm sorry about this, but thank you all for participating with your amazing fics and art! It was hugely appreciated and I think that this years Glambert’s Big Bang was a great success! Hopefully, we will be back at some point in the near future :)

Notes: Much love to freckles_slayme, who brainstormed this fic with me way way back when, starting from a picture of Adam at the FYE video shoot. Thanks to my two amazing betas: pinkygoldfish for her sharp legal mind and honest feedback that turned this into a much better story; and to my patient and dedicated untamedfilly who spent a lot of time holding my hand, kicking my ass and generally being a genius. And thanks to writinchica2k for her gorgeous art and awesome fanmix, please check them both out! The cover for the fanmix really blew me away! One last note (if you've read this far). The artifact in the story exists in RL, if you want to see it go visit the Brooklyn Museum or click here.

Notes: I've had the idea for this fic in my head for about 11 months now, and I'm really grateful that this challenge gave me the opportunity and the motivation to actually write it. It was sort of inspired by this untitled fic, which can be read sort of as a prologue to this big bang. A huge thanks to everyone who's encouraged me along the way, and to littlemousling for being my beta!

It wasn’t easy; but then again, it’s never easy to catch a planet-hopping, psychopathic serial killer. But now, finally, after years of searching the galaxies, countless failures, missed opportunities and misinformation, after nearly crashing his spaceship plenty of times, Tommy Joe Ratliff finally had his man.

Life felt pretty damn good.
