    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

    Ryland Grace was supposed to spend the rest of his life on Erid, teaching science to a class full of mini-Rockys. Instead, I’m standing in a middle school hallway in San Francisco. This has to be a lucid dream... or a hallucination... or my brain is finally leaking out of my ears. The third option. It has to be the third option.

    Because if this is real... why is Abby drinking coffee in my classroom again?

    I don't know if I will have any romantic relationships so that that as you will.

    Trigger Warning: this work will have scene where main characters have panic attacks and ptsd symptoms.

    Summary

    Percy Jackson was done being a pawn for the Gods, punished for simply existing, even after everything he'd done to protect Olympus. With the help of a sympathetic God, Percy Jackson sheds his old life for a new one. It was hard, adjusting to a mortal life and going back to mortal schools, but he pushed on. He struggled, he persevered, and his life took a turn he hadn't expected but, honestly, wasn't going to complain about (too much) after his temper cost him. He'd adapt, and he'd do the best he could.

    Ryland Grace just wanted a normal life, even if it was hard fitting in. His Demigod life was behind him, but always hanging above his head. It was hard to relate to others or make friends, but who needed friends when he had his kids? Being a school teacher was, honestly, the most rewarding thing. Even if they liked pushing his buttons at times. Grace would do anything to be the teacher for them that he never had, someone who'd fight for them, believe in them, and help them be their best selves.

    So, when he wakes up in space, with no memory of how he got there, Ryland Grace thinks it's to save his kids. Percy Jackson thinks the Gods decided to punish him again. Both agree that letting Earth die isn't an option.

    Summary

    Mindy Park is rapidly realising that the first intelligent extraterrestrial to make contact with the human race thinks they’re fucking stupid. She’s pretty sure that Dr Grace isn’t accurately translating half the things Rocky is saying, but most of what he is telling her is that Rocky has a better way of doing what NASA wants them to do, and honestly, it seems like Rocky is mostly right. She probably doesn’t want to know what the other half of what Grace’s new alien friend is saying, if the things that are making it through what she’s calling the “middle school teacher filter” are “why would you do something the dumb way when you could do it the right way”.

    or,

    Mindy has a headache, Grace has trauma, Mark is confused and Rocky is wondering how humans made it in to space when they're all so, so dumb.

    Summary

    How old was he, even? He’d been thirty-five when he left Earth — would that make him seventy-five, or forty-six, or forty-two once he returned?

    Grace is returning to Earth, but what will that mean for him?
