Keeping Watch by Starri_Skye
Fandoms: Project Hail Mary - Andy Weir, Project Hail Mary (2026)
04 Mar 2026
Tags
Summary
“You sleep, I’ll watch.”
We both know that they are not going to sleep. We both know that the moment they go still, they will be dead. And I will be alone. But I won’t say that, and they won’t say that, even if it’s the truth.
“You…save Erid,” they say.
Not a question.
I will be the last Eridian on our ship. I will be the last hope.
Or I will die. Just like every other Eridian has died here, and will eventually die on Erid, because we failed.
I shift low, close to where my last friend lays. “You sleep, I will watch,” I tell them again.
And they go to sleep.
And they never wake up again.
Rocky loses everyone on his crew.
Years later, he meets an alien.

Summary
Rocky knows that Grace is considered an adult for his species, but his hindbrain goes crazy when he finds out he’s in his 30s. So that’s why he’s been feeling weirder than normal. His alpha instincts think Grace is a pebble.
Or,
What if Eridians had ABO dynamics and humans didn't? (Gen ABO dynamics | Non-sexual heats/ruts)Now with a second chapter feat. Adrian!

culture shock by sly_as_an_alpaca

Summary
“Rocky not explain question?” asked Adrian slowly.
“Busy,” said Rocky, sheepish.
“Had four years on ship.”
“Busy then too.”
Adrian skittered back and forth, which I think equated to a human throwing both hands up in exasperation. “With what question?”
“Science!”
“Whole time science question? Four years!”
“Is much science in universe!”--
Rocky has neglected to explain some very important cultural context to Grace.

Summary
“Grace. What are you testing, question?”
Rocky. I can’t put this all on the guy right now. He should be happy. We are going to Erid. We are going to save his planet.
“CBC. A complete blood count.” I answer, hoping he doesn’t ask me why.
“Purpose, question?”
Rocky, please. I’m trying to spare you right now.
Basically, Grace gets exposed to a dangerous amount of radiation during an EVA and doesn't want to tell Rocky bc of what happened to Rocky's crew <3
THIS IS A REWORKED VERSION OF "TEMPEST" - after some comments, I wanted to keep the soul of the story, but make it more scientifically plausible. While there are still probably some inaccuracies, I still hope this isn't as messy as before.

Untouchable Things by Bitterlikesweets

21 Apr 2026

Summary
Link shouldn't allow this. Shouldn't indulge himself when he knows that Sidon is far, far from his reach. He shouldn't allow this because the avatar might only be doing this because Link wants it to, and how will he ever explain something like that to Sidon? He shouldn't be doing this because Sidon might find out somehow, because the king might already know, because this might taint their precious friendship.
He shouldn't because a taste of intimacy like this is only going to make Link want the real thing even more.
Or
Sidon's avatar starts behaving strangely, teasing Link with affectionate touches and gestures that the real Sidon would never allow; a torment so sweet, Link simultaneously wants it to end and never stop. At the same time, Sidon is plagued with strange dreams of his dearest friend. Dreams where he can't hold back desires he didn't even know he had.

Having the spirits of the four Champions constantly talking in his soul is nice, even if it’s sometimes tiring. At least, until Link realizes he’s not going to be able to be intimate with Prince Sidon as long as they’re still watching. SidLink.

His Eyes Never Change (Gold like Cor Lapis, Blue as Noctilucous Jade) by stars_at_dawn
Fandoms: 原神 | Genshin Impact (Video Game)
30 May 2026

Summary
10/02/2024 - MAJOR EDITS DONE - Guizhong's adeptus form has been changed, previous chapters affected include Chapters 20 and 22
It takes a lot to catch Tartaglia, 11th of the Fatui Harbingers, off guard. Between surviving three months with the monsters of the Abyss at age fourteen, fighting his way up from square one through the ranks of the Fatui to his current position, and maintaining his facade as “The Greatest Toy Salesman in Snezhnaya” in the eyes of his youngest and most mischievous brother; yes, it would take a lot to find him in a truly tight spot.
Waking up in a body that existed nearly 3,700 years ago in the land that had yet to become Liyue? That would be disorienting even for a god. And speaking of gods, the only person he can turn to happens to be one. Here's hoping that the younger Zhongli is as friendly as the one Childe has grown close to.
Arc 1: Dreams, Incense, and the Gods (Ch. 1-13)
Arc 2: Secrets Beneath the Clouds (Ch. 14-23)
Arc 3: Unearthed Truths (Ch. 24-32)
Arc 4: Days of Gold (33-39)
Arc 5: When the Dust Settles (40-???)Featuring some amazing fanart! Credits found in the chapter notes.

Summary
"So this is some type of fae sickness, then?"
Varka shifts closer to the bed, and for a second, it looks like he's about to reach out again, to put his hand back on Flins' shoulder. Disappointingly, he doesn't.
Flins peers up at him. "Yes. It's not contagious, if that is your concern."
"What?" Varka sounds genuinely perplexed by this notion, taking a second to process it, but then he scoffs. "Of course not! Isn't it obvious? I'm concerned about you, Flins."

“I will only be gone for the day. Whatever recompense you wish for this favor, I will grant it.”
Moons above, she was desperate. An offer like that from a Harbinger was no trivial thing.
“I shall think about it,” Flins replied faintly. “… Babysitting Tartaglia, you said?”

Or: Tartaglia ragebaits Flins into getting a boyfriend and almost causing a diplomatic crisis. Not exactly in that order.

Summary
“May the Wind take you home.”
The words aren’t Flins’s to say. They come from a member of the Favonius Keep, on Nod-Kraian soil, far from Mondstadt.
“ζωή σε σας.”
May life be with you.A sentiment meant for those who breathe and mourn, yet Flins murmurs it softly after the knights, hoping that the very air will grasp each syllable and place it in the flames of the candles set atop the memorial.
- When Varka is killed in battle, Flins mourns a lover for the first time in his long life.

Summary
in which flins is down bad for varka, nefer is down bad for lauma, and both enter an agreement to set each other up with their respective sweethearts.
“..some of these phenomena occur particularly in and around Amsvartnir, so I’d recommend the Lightkeepers join forces with the Knights of Favonius.” Nefer looks straight at where she senses Flins’ face to be. “Though, am I wrong in saying that you may prefer to collaborate with Mr. Varka alone?”
Flins hesitates ever so slightly, and Nefer knows she's struck gold. “Miss Nefer, I must say, I don’t quite understand your meaning in—“
“Save it,” interrupts Nefer. “You. And the Knight of Boreas. I’m sure you understand what I’m getting at.”
Nefer is not provided with a response for several seconds, but when he does, it’s with the slightest trace of a smirk in his voice.
Flins claps Nefer’s shoulder. “You. And the Lady Moonchanter of the Frostmoon Scions. I take it that we mean the same thing here.”
Checkmate.

Summary
A body tumbled against his.
Shocked, and caught off guard, Zhongli stumbled, his spear clattering to the ground as shock turned to horror and his arms clutched at the broken, bloody figure, sinking to his knees with water pooling across his floorboards and seeping into his dressing gown.
“Childe?”
~
Or: Instead of sending Childe to Snezhnaya, Skirk sends him to Zhongli.
