    Summary

    Ilyukhina and Yáo do not die whilst in their medical comas aboard the Hail Mary, but they do not wake either.

    Not until Operation Time Go Fishing.

    This makes all the difference.

     

    or; Ilyukhina hasn't even been awake one hour, and they've already nearly died three times and there's a literal alien rock that's distressed beyond belief.

    Summary

    Mark Watney never manages to make contact with Earth and NASA never realizes that he survived the storm and evacuation on Sol 6. So, needless to say, the crew of the Ares IV is incredibly surprised when they land on Mars to find a scruffy, malnourished, mentally unbalanced, but still-alive astronaut waiting for them.

    These are the stories of Mark's long journey home and the lives of the people he touches along the way. (Mostly told from not-Mark POVs.)

    Summary

    Martinez enters the sick bay. “Oh, shit,” he says. “Uhhhhhh, Beck, we’ve got a situation!”

    “Mrow,” Mark says, felinely.

    -

    Mark turns into a cat on the way back to Earth. It’s not the worst time it could’ve happened. Kapoor, in one message, outright forbid Mark to turn into a cat on Mars, because apparently everybody was worried it’d happen then he’d die because he wouldn’t have thumbs for a month.

    Summary

    You didn't just have to save him. You have to put him back together, too.

    Ares 3 was in time to save Mark's life, but not quite his mind. The Hermes has hundreds of days of space travel before they all get back to Earth. It's a ship running without maintenance, and the primary engineer has the world's most severe case of PTSD. What happens? Canon-compliant.

    Edited and updated September 2021.
