Summary
In which John Egan doesn’t get captured behind enemy lines (at least not initially).
——
Inspired by a MOTA TikTok comment saying they wanted to “hug him, comfort him, kiss his forehead and say ‘It is okay’” during episodes 6-8. I hope I fulfilled your dreams.

Summary
After thirty years in space, Grace comes home to a different Earth. The only thing that remains the same is Stratt.
She grapples with guilt. He is full of forgiveness.
Between them, there is understanding and something warm creeping in that had no room to exist all those years ago. They have all the space for it now.

Summary
Earth did not expect the Hail Mary to return from her voyage; they had expected her inhabitants to accept their fate, future patron saints of one-way trips.
They had measured the optics. They had prescribed three astronauts with a death sentence; two aware and wanting of the pills they were handed to swallow, one dragged kicking and screaming. They had decided that the future of all humanity, of all known intelligent life, was worth these three lives. They had expected that these three lives would make peace with this: that there would be no help other than their own hands in the unknown stretch of the forever cosmos. They had anticipated no consequence for their actions; that those three names would be known as heroes, no questions asked about if they had wanted to be heroes at all.
They had not counted on Ryland Grace.
***
Or: the probes don't launch. Ryland Grace is forced to return to Earth.
He still isn't giving up on Erid. Or Rocky.

Curiosity kills by Soowshie

Summary
Something was standing above his towel.
No… someone.
They seemed to be observing the towel, claws tapping against the material with what he took as curiosity, pinching it between the appendage.
Was it Rocky? It’d make sense, the Eridian would certainly have something harsh to say about him leaving his stuff laying around. He always had some mean quip to insult his shoddy human memory.
He opened his mouth to defend himself before Rocky could say something snappy, when the figure then moved, stocky legs rising from beneath their carapace and lifting them to their full standing height.
They were tall. Too tall.
That wasn’t Rocky.
OR
Grace receives an unexpected visitor one night in his home on Erid.

Summary
“You look nice,” he says, smiling a little shy, as if the compliment had just slipped out and he was supposed to be embarrassed about that.
“I uh,” You pause, swallowing thickly.
Holy fuck he looks good in a suit. It’s the only thought spinning around your head. Suddenly you’re reminded of all those times he’d complained about all the formal conferences and charity gala’s he’d attended during his days in academia. You realise you have made a grave error.
in which: You need a date to the wedding you foolishly agreed to attend, luckily your co-worker is a willing sacrifice. Extremely willing.
