    Summary

    Rocky thought he had all the time in the world after landing back on Erid. Grace thought he didn't have anything at all.

    Both are kind of wrong.

    Between complex Eridian customs and the imminent danger of starvation they somehow, barely, make it out unscathed.

    ***

    OR: Look at how much eridian worldbuilding I can cram in the the cosmic love-story between Grace and Rocky, saviours of stars.

    Summary

    “Grace okay, question?” Rocky’s “voice” echoes from the other side of the door. I freeze like a deer in the headlights. Ilyukhina blinks at me. “Ilyukhina okay?”

    “Grace.”

    “Mhm?”

    “What— who— Yáo is still asleep?”

    “Yeah, so… it’s a long story, uh…” I kick myself internally. All this time and I haven’t worked out a better way to do this?

    “Grace, question? Not coming inside, but Grace answer? Making sure Grace okay.”

    “We have all the time in the world!” Ilyukhina says, in disbelief.

    ...

    The entire crew of the Hail Mary survives the trip to Tau Ceti. There's just one problem: Ryland Grace is the only one who wakes up on time. He can't remember the first thing about himself, much less how to fix his crew's failing life support systems— not to mention the astrophage crisis!

    Luckily for him, Ilyukhina, Yáo, and Rocky turn out to be excellent company for an interstellar mission.

    Summary

    In the aftermath of the arrival of the Hail Mary, Adrian becomes used to it. Polite, not unkind deferrals. Occasional rejections, stiffly sung, claws stamped firmly in a simple, no. Not today. Perhaps not for a long time, Adrian. You have a mate to take care of.

    Adrian would love to take care of their mate. Adrian cannot tell their community that Rocky is still high above them, still in the spaceship that houses the sick, dying alien Rocky refuses to leave. Adrian will take care of Rocky when they return, but they have not yet returned, and so there is nobody for Adrian to care for at all.

    Adrian has waited four hundred and thirty-one years for their mate. Their mate, upon returning to them, has an alien. Adrian will adjust. Just like they always have.

    Summary

    After Grace dies of old age after a long and happy life on Erid, Rocky and Adrian break physics because a handful of decades was NOT enough time!
    The Eridians band together and figure out Time Travel! They've come back in time to pick up their emotional support squishy space blob!
    And also give earth the solution to the Astrophage Crisis, because that still needs doing.
    Rocky & Adrian have also held a hell of a grudge against Stratt for her betrayal of Grace in the first timeline. As champion grudge holders they are taking the opportunity to be petty and ominous in their interactions with Stratt & the task force.

    Summary

    ***

    It was the lack of noise that told Courtland Gentry more than anything else that no one was actively trying to kill him at the moment. Had his assailant left him for dead? Didn’t matter, he needed to move no matter what additional pain it woke in his heavy body. Gathering his arms under him, he pushed up—

    There was something in his right fist. Taking one last look around the alley to verify no new threats were materializing—Christ, what city was he even in?—he pushed back to sit against the nearest cracked brick wall and uncurled his fingers.

    A crumpled yellow sticky note wrapped around a cheap plastic thumb drive lay in his palm.

    He unfurled the creased paper and found his own blocky handwriting staring up at him.

    "He goes to space. 37 loops and no matter what I do, he always goes to space."

    Then, in letters so heavily pressed into the paper the ballpoint had almost torn through it:

    "Save him. Save them both."
