Summary
With no Interloper to add injury to the insult that is their failed Project, the Nomai notice a Strange signal high above the system. Pye, Poke, and Clary, glad for a shift in focus, investigate its sights and secrets with great enthusiasm and verve.
But in the light of their present and their past alike, not all the sights and secrets this anomaly holds will be of merely scientific interest to them... -

Summary
"Huh, Gabbro? What's wrong?" Riebeck asks, and Chert says with vindictive glee, "That's what I said!"
"Is it really so hard to believe that I'd call my two best friends just to see how they're doing?" Gabbro asks.
"Yes," they both say in unison.

How lucky it is to be born at all, to be able to live through everything no matter how short, to be able to spend your moments with someone you're close to no matter how abrupt.
How lucky it is to be born in this universe.

Summary
The Hatchling did it. They've explored the solar system, reached the Eye, and completed the legacy of the Nomai. They said goodbye and hello simultaneously. They let go. So why do they wake up staring at Giant's Deep? And why is the Orbital Probe Cannon still intact? Perhaps by exploring the solar system again they can find out exactly what happened when they entered the Eye of the Universe.

Summary
There's only so much you can do to in a 22 minute time loop that ends in the sun going supernova. You've tried a whole lot of what you can do, but at some point, there's a change that needs to happen, and you have to try something new.
So you can try to fix it, or give up. You're leaning on the former.
But as you realize, it's a painfully hard job to keep a dying universe from going out completely.

Summary
Perched on the highest point of her boat’s structures, Stella still has to crane her neck to stare up and up into the dark sky, at the irrevocable shape of her Atul's face carved into the stars, and understand.
Her voice is choked when she says, shattered, "Oh." Her heart lost in an overwhelming tide of too many emotions to name, whatever gleaming hope she had of seeing him again extinguished by a sea of sudden and all encompassing grief. "Hello, uncle."
***
After Atul disappears, Stella visits the Everdoor's waters in an attempt to find him. And she does.
Just not in the way she wanted.
