    Summary

    It didn’t make sense.

    It didn’t make any flipping sense.

    Up is down, left is right, xenon’s a solid, and apparently THERE’S ANOTHER FREAKING SPACESHIP IN TAU-CETI.

    Summary

    “Big news! Statement.” Rocky chimes brightly.

    “Okaaaay. Lay it on me.”

    “Two things. First thing.” Rocky begins, holding one arm up, “Eridian crew return safe and sound from mission!”

    “That’s great!” He nods.

    Rocky holds up a second arm.

    “Second thing: Eridian crew find strange moon. No landmasses. Consisted entirely of an ocean of blood.”

    “That is...decidedly not great."

    (or: how two humans that have little trust in humanity learn to be comfortably human with one another.)

    Summary

    When in the rut of taomebia research hits a stalemate, a new blip settles on the horizon of the Hail Mary. A rusty mutated submarine adrift in space. Rocky and Grace must now tackle the hurdle of a monster man that brings new questions to the table? Including homoerotic questions.

    Grace is a rational selfish man. And Simon is a ruthless killer with a heart of iron. But what happens when these pretenses fade? What happens When two forgotten martyrs have a meet-cute in the blood pit?

    Or

    Slow burn of Simon acting like a kicked dog and slowly trusting Grace

    Summary

    “Is the alien…dangerous?” he asks slowly.

    “No! No, no he’s my friend, he’s - uh, well, the engineer of the Hail Mary,” says Grace. “Look, I’m just saying that - he’s gonna wake up soon, and we don’t need to tell him about how our first meeting went. We can gloss over the whole ‘tackle me to the ground and scare the daylights out of me’ thing. I won’t tell if you won’t.”

    Simon is 90% sure this is going to come back to bite him in the form of blackmail but he nods anyways, because it sure as hell sounds like Grace is implying Simon will be allowed to stay a while longer.

     

    Rocky sleeps through the absolute shitshow that is Simon and Grace’s first meeting. It’s probably for the best.
    Despite it all, it will be the start of beautiful friendship.

    Summary

    When Eva Stratt comes to recruit Dr. Ryland Grace for the Astrophage Crisis, she expects a useful expert. She does not expect a brilliant, tightly wound Little with a sunshine-yellow sweater, a locked-down regression, and a talent for becoming her problem.

    As the years of prep grind on and the project narrows toward Baikonur, professional necessity turns into something such more dangerous: trust, protectiveness, and the kind of care neither of them has time to want.

    Summary

    It's been years since Doctor Ryland Grace saved Erid and Earth. He is content with his life, happy just to teach the next generation of Eridians and have the occasional game night with Rocky and Adrian in his dome. For the most part, nothing changes.

    And that's the problem. Shouldn't Grace, y'know...age? When Rocky indicates that he should be sixty human years old by now, Grace can't reconcile the young face in the mirror with the time that his friend has religiously kept.

    Things get more complicated when another undoubtedly human ship shows up at the edge of the 40 Eridani system. Suddenly Grace is playing ambassador between the two species, and tensions are rising between them. Will this be a successful second contact, or is the peaceful life Grace just wants to live too much to ask for?

    Summary

    "Gem is not strict to romantic relationships, gem is for any long lasting and important relationship! Grace is Rocky best friend, we exchange gems!"

    In an instant, his confusion melted to powerful wave of emotion, the sincerity in Rocky's musical tone struck him deeply. "You… You mean it?"

    "Of course, of course, of course!"

    Summary

    Grace and Rocky arrive at Erid. While Grace is more than happy to be one-step further from death, he has yet to confront his very human brain about it. Memories of his time on earth, near-death experiences in space, and being suddenly surrounded by giant alien spiders is a recipe for disaster. Luckily, Rocky is there to help him every step of the way.

    or

    The Eridians have a lot to learn about their new alien roomate.

    Summary

    The humans threw Grace away. Grace, who worked so hard to save them, who came back for Rocky when he realized the taomoeba would eat through Rocky's ship. Grace, who gave up his chance to go home to save Erid too.

    And then Rocky finds out exactly how Grace ended up in space.

    They're not giving him back now. Grace will always have a place on Erid where he's beloved and cherished the way he should be, even if it takes Grace a while to believe he's worth that. Rocky may or may not have plans to fix up the Hail Mary for the trip back anyways- there were a few things they wanted to say directly to Stratt's face.

    Summary

    It had been a long and difficult 27 years since the Hail Mary had launched. Not as terrible as it could have been, but not easy. Humanity had survived and adapted, as it always did. There had been terrible wars. There had been incredible acts of kindness. There had been massive scientific breakthroughs. And now, there were two distant blips of Petrova-light, picked up by the Deep Space Network, hurtling home. Two probes, braking hard as they hurtled toward Earth holding the secrets to its salvation. They were late, or at least, not very early, but they were here.

    Grace may have made his peace with dying to save Rocky, but Rocky insists they return to Earth.

    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.

    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

    Rocky has officially moved into Hail Mary with Grace, but he's still dealing with the aftereffects of living nearly fifty human years by himself. By chance, he finds himself singing with Grace, and it's clear Grace doesn't fully understand what that means for Eridians.

    This story roughly follows the plot of both the book and the film, but Rocky and Grace's personalities are more reminiscent of the book. Furthermore, Rocky's speaking style closely follows the book, although his physical appearance is closer to his depiction in the film.

    Summary

    He warned them. Repeatedly. Kakashi didn’t want a genin team. Kakashi had no idea of what to do with a genin team. He was self-aware enough to know he wasn’t quite right in the head. He should not be trusted with a bunch of children.

    But did the Sandaime hear him? No, because the Sandaime wasn’t Minato-sensei and the old man never listened to him. And he went ahead with the brilliant idea of saddling him with his dead sensei’s son, Itachi’s little brother, and a kunoichi who was so much a cannon fodder that she had a literal target on her bright red dress.

    He would not be blamed for the shitshow that was about to start.

    OR.

    Kakashi only knows how to teach three things: survival, assassination, and pretending to be normal. Good thing that's exactly what his cute little genins need to learn. And if they also learned how to be a family in the process, well, that's just a bonus.

    Summary

    The crux of the matter is that Kakashi’s old. By the time he finally gives up the hat, he’s nearly forty and growing older, and while he’s faced death too many times to still remember to fear it, he certainly thinks about it. He can’t help it. He blames the Nidaime — staring at Senju Tobirama’s reanimated face reminds Kakashi of everything that will die with him: his clan, their history, an entire generation. The realization leaves him unsettled, and as his body starts to ache more and more, he finds himself wishing for a world in which he isn’t so alone.

    Or, Kakashi returns to the Hatake compound in an attempt to speak with his ancestors and promptly forgets that the Hiraishin is, above all else, an experimental time/space jutsu. By activating it, he finds himself in a world not quite like his own.

    Summary

    Even at the moment of the hiraishin's conception, Tobirama knew the dangers of meddling with the very threads that make up the fabric of existence. He knew that repeated usage only made it easier to traverse between the dimensions because the user became physically more susceptible to slipping through the cracks.

    But knowing something is possible theoretically is very different from experiencing it for himself.
