    Summary

    Ryland Grace wakes up in a small room alone, where the walls are wrong, his body is wrong, and there's a rock spider like nothing he's ever seen looming over him. He has no memory of how a middle school science teacher could've possibly ended up on an alien planet trillions of kilometers away from the nearest fellow human being- and yet these aliens seem determined to take good care of him.

    /

    The drug Grace was given to induce amnesia before going on the Hail Mary has unpredictable long-term side effects.

    Summary

    Petulantly, Rocky says, “Grace sound stupid. Like child.”

    “I’m just talking how you talk, buddy.”

    “Yes. This is because I talk like child, to speak to stupid human.”

    “Well, you don’t have to do that,” I say without thinking.

    “♪♫♩as this♪ when, underst♪♪♫d ♪me, question?” Rocky says.

    “What?”

    Summary

    “Good morning Grace. Sleep well, question?”

    “No,” he says, which is how he usually answers that question these days. “New symptom, maybe. I might be forgetting stuff.”

    Rocky trills in concern. “Yes, you said that yesterday.”

    (Malnutrition has a lot of symptoms. One of them is memory loss. Grace is not doing great.)

    Summary

    „You know who you are,“ Carl says softly.
    The world fades to black.
    He bolts upright in his cot, gasping for air, the low hum of the Vat vibrating through the metal floorboards.
    Oh, fudge.

    or, the one where Ryland wakes up over and over on the day of the goodbye party on Stratt's Vat, after the launch of the Hail Mary. His friends die, or he dies, and his boss-friend repeatedly sentences him to death. He just wants it to stop.

    Summary

    The sun is warm on your face. Your neck hurts from looking up for so long, squinting in the bright light, but you don't want to look away. This is the last time you'll ever see the Hail Mary. The closest you can get to seeing the crew one last time; you saw Ilyukhina and Yáo just before launch, spent the days before it watching Dr. Grace sleep in every spare moment you could find, but you can't shake it, the want for just a little longer.

     

    Stratt watches the launch of the Hail Mary, and thinks about what will happen now.

    I have a lot of things I need to be able to say to Rocky. Hundreds and thousands of specific, finnicky, scienc-y things. Right now, all we can say is yes and no. At least there's nowhere to go but up, right...?

    Summary

    I lived with this hunger long before the Hail Mary. This is nothing new. I’m fine.

    Right up until Rocky asks another question.

    “When last time you touch other human person skin, question?”

    Oh. Oh no. “When I… a few days after I first woke up here.”

    Rocky starts to relax for a split second, but then tightens when something occurs to him.

    “Grace crewmates dead when you wake up. You said this, statement. You not even know your own name, remember nothing, see dead bodies, confirm?”

    I nod, because if I open my mouth I will gag.

    “When last time Grace touch ALIVE human person, question.”

    I swallow thickly. I don’t answer aloud because I know Rocky can hear the hitch in my breath. My stomach churns with fresh bile. He senses my vital signs tick over into stress patterns and goes very, very still again.

    “Grace. When last time, question.”

    I clench my jaw so hard my temples ache, and beg him with my eyes to just stop.

    “Grace. Please say not when… when Evil Stratt humans put you to sleep.”

    I can taste grass.

    Summary

    (“you’ve been shot,” said Vash the Stampede, who shouldn’t’ve been there, who’d run away from home under Elendira’s watch at least two years before, maybe even longer ago than that. Nicholas had only seen him once or twice, but a face like that had been unforgettable.

    very astute.” There’d been copper and iron on his tongue, past his lips. “thanks for telling me.”

    Vash’s hands covered his own and pressed down harder, his frown covering his whole face—furrowing his eyebrows, twisting his lips, scrunching his nose. Twins someone had told him at onboarding or whatever had passed for it, but the resemblance was passing. This had been someone different, distinct and disarming. A face broken in by softer expressions.

    keep that energy,” blood had been welling through Vash’s fingers, slower than it had been. The City said nothing in return. “i think i can fix this.”

    can i see your credentials?” His breath had blown bubbles through his chest. —and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning—are you qualified for that?

    i misspoke. you can take that energy down, like, half-a-watt.”)

    Enter the chain of events—diseases, injuries, or complications—that directly caused the death. DO NOT enter terminal events such as cardiac arrest, respiratory arrest, or ventricular fibrillation without showing the etiology. DO NOT ABBREVIATE. Enter only one cause on a line.

    Summary

    For nearly as long as they’d known each other, Nicholas D. Wolfwood had sworn up and down that Vash the Stampede would be the death of him, one way or another.

    He’d just expected it from the barrel of a gun or the bottom of one too many vials, not from pretty white flowers with wide velvet petals.

    (Wolfwood's feelings for Vash turn into Hanahaki disease, and he deals with it about as well as you'd expect.)

    Summary

    "It feels like falling asleep, his body heavy and softened and weighed down by his own life, his own choices. He's heard that dying's supposed to be relaxing, seeing your life flash before your eyes and making peace with it or whatever. Well, Wolfwood just got the highlights reel- his verdict is that he fucked up bad and he should've had more gay sex."

     

    Wolfwood gets a second chance and doesn't waste it.
