    Summary

    “What are you talking about?” Grace's fingers played quick chords as he spoke. He didn’t even look as he did it, but it did not make them any less purposeful.

    “Discussing possible reasons why Tau Ceti is not infected while other stars are,” Eva replied deftly. “I would invite you to join, but we were just finishing—”

    “Oh, that’s easy.” His hand twisted a knob, and the notes came out sharper. “It is infected—Petrova Line and everything.”

    In Grace's opinion, dreaming about time traveling is no excuse for getting out of practice with his Eridian. To the rest of the Petrova Taskforce, it seems a bit odd that their resident Astrophage expert has suddenly taken to carrying a keyboard around and playing it whenever he speaks. Eva Stratt resolves to figure out what is going on.

    Summary

    Dr. Ryland Grace is an odd man.

    When Eva Stratt first approaches the man, he's not alone.

    She was under the impression that he had no loved ones, but the way that he looks at the man casually lounging on his desk, his face obscured from his dark hair cascaded in front of it, with such fond adoration, Stratt realizes that rather her sources were incorrect or this is a new development.

    (OR: Grace and Simon time travel together to where it all began)

    Summary

    “I just think it’s kind of a messed-up thing to do to a baby,” I said.

     

    AKA: the one with time travel. When the opportunity arises, Rocky and Ryland can't turn down the chance to save Rocky's crew.

    It all kind of spirals from there.

    Summary

    After a few years on Erid, food and biodome and keeping him alive indefinitely all figured out, shockingly fast actually, Grace begins to grow impatient and anxious with waiting to find out if the Beetles have made it to Earth and if Earth is safe. Rocky has an idea.

    But when you're still new to the concept of messing with Space-Time, sometimes you focus too much on the space part and forget that you're also messing with the time part too...

    Summary

    "Come on Carl, just one thing! Lokken just got her future memories! Why can't I just know one little thing." Ryland was not above whining to get what he wanted. Everyone kept acting weird once they got the time travel memories! The only explanation was that it had to do with the Hail Mary. He wanted to know why.

    "You know the project is going to succeed. Is that not enough." Carl, the traitor, raised an eyebrow like he wasn't affected by Ryland's pleas.

    "Ok but what do they find? What are the astronauts going to find up there that we can't replicate?" Ryland asked for the umpteenth time. They were all so tight lipped about it! If they already had the answer why don't they just implement it now, why wait almost thirty years?

    Carl just laughed, again, like he always did. "You know, you'd already know that if you remembered it," he teased.

    Ryland huffed. Fine then! "When I get my own time-travel memories I wont tell you everything I know, see how you like it!"

    Weirdly - It was never anything normal with these people! - Carl just smiled, but it didn't reach his eyes. "I can't wait."

    OR

    The Petrova Task Force travel back in time one after the other. They forgot to invite Ryland.

    Summary

    Disaster strikes the Hail Mary on its way back to Earth. The taumoeba escape their breeding tanks, and make it to the fuel lines. Stranded in space just outside the Tau Ceti system, Dr Ryland Grace can't do anything. He can't go save Rocky, he can't go save Earth. Exhausted, out of options, and distraught, he fills the ship with nitrogen, and takes his final breath.
    Next thing he knows, his eyes flutter open in his San Francisco apartment. It's a year before ArcLight touches down on Earth, but he remembers the Petrova Task Force.
    He's not the only one.

    OR: Time-Travel Fix-It AU but it's not just Grace who came back in time.

    Summary

    It is 2052 and 2032, and a room full of people returns to its prior orientation. Regardless of spacetime impossibilities, the Hail Mary has to launch in three days, and it's time to tell Ryland Grace to die.
    It's a shame, then, that he's absent.

    Summary

    Bad dreams suck. Grace wakes up from a nightmare of being on the Hail Mary, which is utterly impossible, but his throat hurts like he really did have a tube pulled out of it.

    Turns out, he wasn't the only one to have that dream. Which was even more impossible than him actually being on a ship that's not even fully built.

    aka A movie react fic where everyone sees the film in dreams.

    Summary

    “I am Groot.”

    “♩♫♪♩♩♫♪♬♩!” Rocky sings.

    “I am Groot?”

    “♩♫♩♩♬.”

    “I am Groot!”

    “♫♩♫♪♩♬♫♩!”

    Grace doesn’t understand a single word of what Rocky is saying. Or Groot, for that matter. “What is happening right now?!”

    Two instances of cosmic anomalies bring two different spaceships to the same universe. When both crews become stranded on a hostile planet, searching for a way home, they find they’ll have to work together to survive.

    OR
    Grace is seriously out of his depth here, but he does enjoy studying all the new alien life. Rocket is teaching Rocky, his new engineer buddy, all kinds of fun things. Quill and Mantis are glad to be back with their family (even if they are stuck on a deadly planet that's trying to kill them…). Drax hates the colour pink, Groot hates the acid rain, and Nebula just wants to keep all these idiots alive.

    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

    Grace has to handle First Contact with an alien planet with what meager Eridian his one set of vocal chords can make.
    This Is Fine. This is totally, completely, utterly fine.

    (Grace sounds like a pebble. This, alongside Eridian's extended lifespans, kicks off a chain of misunderstandings that Grace would find utterly mortifying if he knew what the heck was going on.)

    Summary

    Grace is unprepared for the level of love that all of Erid seemed to have for him. It was vaguely terrifying, but also.... nice? To be cared for. To be wanted.

    It gets worse when they find out the circumstances of him ending up on the Hail Mary.

    When his declining health necessitates a trip back to Earth, he is faced with a planet that loves him so fiercely and wonderfully that it finally starts to break through his crippling lack of self worth and bloom into something incredible.

    And Earth? Earth has to deal with an Erid that is polite, protective, and most of all, pissed.

    But his tale of time-travel and saving the world with his alien best friend took the cake.
