    Summary

    He does not hold himself like a hero. At first glance, it’s hard to believe that this man saved the world. But once you look closer, you come to realise how his specific brand of charm was exactly what Earth needed in its eleventh hour.

    Dr Ryland Grace holds himself like a teacher.

    He asks me how you’re meant to start these sorts of things, and, suddenly taken aback by the sight of him in front of me, I give it to him the only way I know how. “Tell me about life on Earth.”

    Or: Ryland Grace finally gets his Futuristic BuzzFeed interview.

    Summary

    The Hail Mary has sent off its Beetles and Eva Stratt is the first to dissect them for the data within. If anything, she’s simply glad that Ryland Grace, as odd as he may seem at first glance, is thorough. His logs, both visual and written, go over everything in pretty good detail.

    She’s also come to learn that he has a pretty bad habit of leaving the camera on when it isn’t meant to be.

    Summary

    Simon didn’t expect his savior to be exactly his type.

    What a welcome sight. Even if this stupidly handsome man ends up being evil, or working for the C.O.I, at least he’d die looking at something good.

    or

    Grace and Rocky find Simon's ship floating in deep space on their way to Erid.

    UPDATE: This fic has been peer reviewed by a NASA engineer who has approved of the science!

    Perfect ending to a perfect fic.

    But also. Lovable dumbasses

    “But he wants. He told me.”

    “He told you…? I, uh, don’t think you should’ve told me that.”

    “Why not? Speed up mating. Do you need summon courage too, question?”

    “To talk to him? Probably. It takes me courage to do anything.”

    “You and Grace same. Need courage to talk. Compatible. Make happy. It not different from Eridian mating. Pick someone same to you. Love forever. Simple.”

    Simple.

    He can’t believe the best advice he’s ever received is from a rock with legs.

    He thinks about it for the rest of the day.

    Summary

    Ryland Grace doesn't understand why Stratt is so worried about letting him (i.e. forcing him to) speak at this UNESCO conference. Sure, the LAST time he did that wasn't exactly universally appreciated, but he'd been to hundreds of Eridian conferences since then. He's pretty sure he remembers how to present in English. The Public Speaking Extracurricular Thrum that his pebbles started would be so proud of him!

    or

    Thanks to Dr. Grace's scientific advancements both before and especially after his time travel, it would look suspicious if Stratt DIDN'T send him to the UNESCO conference to share his findings with the field. But that means letting him loose in the world for a few days. There are other people out there. Mein Gott, she can feel the headache forming already.

    This is the fic that gives Carl the justice and credit he deserves.
