Summary
Since he was a child, Simon had been made aware that his life was limited compared to most people.
At first, he thought he'd die while doing Eden's dirty work. Then it was believed that he'd die in prison as a death-row inmate.
Now?
Simon was lost in an unknown place of seemingly endless halls that a group of black box government spooks had tricked him into going. Having to escape danger from humans and monsters alike, will Simon find a way out?
Also, who is the crazy guy with the talking pet rock that insists he's some kind of scientist and says he only wants to help him?

Summary
"Grace! Grace, come look at screen, statment!" Grace rolled his eyes for a moment before he shuffled his way over to where Rocky was perched on the chair, taking a look at the screen his friend was almost excitedly pointing at. "...What the hell?" "Looks like liquid, but moon too small for liquid. We take more look, question?"
Grace flicked a couple of switches and pressed a few buttons, and the Hail Mary ran a quick scan of the moon. And pinged that there was, somehow, LIFE somewhere within the liquid. "Yeah. We'll take a closer look."

Summary
"Bad. Stupid, very stupid." Grace can still hear Rocky's automated laptop-voice through the closed airlock door. "If Grace body poisoned by 'foreign contaminant', Grace die, contaminate spread and Rocky die—"
There's more blood smudged on the floors, the walls, leading up, up...Oh. There's a handprint. A handprint of blood. There's no way that could have happened without Grace realizing.
Rocky's still rambling on in the background: "—Adrian die, Stars-Erid-Earth die, all die because Grace is stupid."
Grace can hardly believe the conclusion he's about to draw. "I think someone's on the ship."
"Repeat words. I was narrating Grace-Rocky future."
"Rock, someone's on the ship."

An AU where Project Hail Mary and the Quiet Rapture both happen in the same universe, but at different times.

EDEN INFORMATIONAL TERMINAL by angelofunrest

Summary
Welcome to the Space Station Eden.
It is a normal space station, trying to survive after the Quiet Rapture. A normal space station with nothing creepy or weird going on below the surface at all. Not a cult for sure.
And all of the materials within the informational terminal will prove without a doubt that it is normal and not even a little bit culty.
Obviously.

The Stars as Red as Blood by WickedMaid
Fandoms: Project Hail Mary (2026), Iron Lung (2026)

Summary
The stars were dying.
No, actually…
The stars died.They had looked to the heavens, watching their saving grace travel for years before one day, it just disappeared. Despite humanity's best efforts, their Hail Mary never made it to Tau Ceti. Factions of humans left Earth, a last-ditch effort to survive. And they watched as the stars quietly disappeared and solar systems grew cold. Humans turned into scavengers, finding any and all resources the corpse of the universe had to offer. With each century, it became even more apparent that the light of humanity would fade like the stars if they didn’t find their salvation. Perhaps life thriving in an ocean of blood had the answers.
OR
BloodyMary where Ryland Grace is subjected to the horrors of the world of Iron Lung, and Simon is his savior. I’ve read a lot of healing, comfort stories where Simon somehow lands on Erid but have yet to see the reverse, sooooooo why not try my hand and traumatize the sunshine character a little bit more <3 I promise I won't hurt him…too much :)

Summary
Ryland doesn't know where he is, what he's doing, or why he's doing it. All he knows is that he's in a universe with no stars and that an organization called the COI found the Hail Mary spinning out into deep space. He knows that Rocky may be injured somewhere, and he knows that the man that currently lays in a hospital bed in front of him should be dead as dirt but has miraculously survived.
He knows he has been given an ultimatum. Find out what brought Simon back to life or never see Rocky again.
The task proves more complicated than he thought.

Summary
Warning heavy spoilers and references from the 2026 film as this was intended to be a tribute or epilogue reflection upon seeing the film but became something…more.
Mutlichaptered. Since the Quiet Rapture occurred, becoming forgotten has become a fate worse than death. Epithets replace names to erase the past. Decoding and salvaging has now become one of the last acts of preservation. The aftermath snapshots and musings of an unknown doomed journey, and a black box of consequences.
An Iron Lung 2026 film inspired Tribute Epilogue…originally OneShot, now Mutlichaptered.

Summary
When they first move to Eden, it isn't called that yet. That comes later, when a dying race starts filling the void with superstition. For now, Mars station is bright, new and full of life. Only the fact that he complained about it for months stops him from loving it openly, the way his parents do.
Later, he is glad to have watched the quiet rapture happen, one of the only witnesses. If he had not seen the red glow of Mars snapping into void before his own eyes, he might have refused to believe it for the rest of his life.

My idea of Simon's life up to the movie, using some of the flashback audio/scenes from the movie and filling in the blanks.

Summary
Ava still couldn’t catch sight of David.
“-Ava.”
She’d been examining the left back side of the room, her head turned. “You are given the role of Sergeant. Your team will be made up of several people from our station and some from another station.” Ava blinked.
“What?”
-----------
Ava was a hopeless leader, romantic and hopeless in most other aspects, despite how put-together she looked. She'd struggled in the past with her confidence and only started gaining it before everything crashed and burned around her. Susan, Simon... she failed David and Jack in so many ways as well...
If only things could go differently. Unfortunately, time doesn't work that way.

Summary
!!SPOILERS FOR IRON LUNG!!
SimonXTransMaleOc
In the suffocating silence of the blood ocean, nothing was ever meant to feel human, let alone love.
After a catastrophic failure leaves the submarine crippled and sinking deeper into the unknown, Simon is no longer alone. Trapped with him is ShoSho, a quiet but fiercely resilient trans man whose past is just as heavy as the crushing pressure outside the hull. As systems fail and something alive begins to creep through the vessel, survival becomes more than just a physical fight. it's a battle against fear, isolation, and the secrets they both carry.
But in the darkness, something unexpected begins to bloom.
Between shared breaths of recycled air, trembling hands in the dimly lit corridors, and whispered confessions neither thought they'd ever speak aloud, Simon and ShoSho find a fragile, desperate kind of love. one that grows in spite of the horror surrounding them.
Because when the ocean itself wants you dead... sometimes the only thing keeping you alive is each other.

Regret.

Iron Lung; Legal affairs (AU) by IGetBored

Tags
Summary
An Au where Simon survives after the SM-13 fails, and is posed with the choice to take legal action against Ava.
~~ “What's the point of lying to them?" "What's the point of pretending we care about the people we send down there? You know that's not true.""Just do your job."
"Scrap the SM-13 and prove to us why your station should be in charge of such an important operation."
~ "I don't understand why you even insisted on keeping him alive after what he did. He's still alive and about sixty two people aren't. Filament station was no sacrifice - no grand risk for humanity or plan for the greater good. Eden is deluded with jealousy."~
~"But what's the point of throwing a guilty life away so pointlessly when it could be so much more?"
"He was never going to be much more. He's a killer, is what he is."~
Just know that any scenes on the SM-13 won't fully be 1:1 with the movie, and a lot of the world and story is adapted.
! Most of the characters and world mentioned do not belong to me, they are David Szymaski and Markipliers property from the game and movie Iron Lung !
