    "You don't even have a dog."

    The people who saw that goofy raincoat when he was biking to school notice when Ryland Grace is gone.

    But he didn't even have a dog.

    i.e. meaningful relationships don't have to be romantic for losing someone to hurt like a bitch

    Summary

    This is my first human-centric fic! I'm an Eridian, so human isn't my first language, and i may get some things wrong! I just thought that this was a cool idea, don't be too harsh please

    OOC: yeah this is basically what would happen if an Eridian wrote a fanfiction about Grace's past but knew next to nothing about humans lmao, trust me my other fics are normal

    Summary

    Olesya and Yáo boarded the Hail Mary expecting to die. The mission was always meant to be a one-way trip, and both made peace with that long before launch.

    Then they survived.

    After spending years in a coma, they wake on Erid to discover that humanity has been saved, they are alive, and a future they never expected to have is suddenly within reach. For the first time since leaving Earth, the possibility of going home feels real, but the hope doesn't last long.

    The Hail Mary will never fly again. The ship was damaged beyond repair, and there is no way back to Earth. Olesya and Yáo find themselves grappling with a cruel reality: they had already accepted death, but accepting life on an alien world proves to be far more difficult. What was once a sacrifice they chose has become a future they never agreed to.

    Summary

    Eva Stratt, fleeing from ever shifting persecutors, embarks on a personal pilgrimage for repentance by secretly taking on the role of postulator for the canonization of Saint Ryland Grace. On the run and between her duties, she visits places they shared, places where his simple gestures worked on her like quiet miracles. Along the way, she collects seven relics for his veneration.

    (Those who learn from the past do not repeat its shortcomings, but historians still debate what they are—what this is. After her passing, the route becomes colloquially known as the Via Evae—a devotional for those who have offered up their loved ones at the altar of the greater good.)
