    Summary

    ‘Just don’t mess up. Easy. Don’t let them know you’re scared,’ Soleum thought.
    “Now, let me tell you the truth,” His eyes glittered like molten gold. His smile widened, gentle and welcoming. Like a good Named Lord’s smile should be. Like it should be when you know the truth because you helped create it.

    Or, I rewrite chapter 199. This changes a few things.
    It diverges more from canon the further it goes.

    Summary

    [Anomaly UKL1D-■■-130666]

    Anomaly 130666, "Roe Deer," is an overwhelmingly powerful entity inexplicably convinced it's just another human employee. It's also very friendly!

    Daydream Corp's official stance: "Secure a contract! Generous reward! Just be quick!"

    The Disaster Bureau's internal directive: "Recruit it to our side! Save it from capitalist exploitation! Help humanity!"

    All anyone knows for sure? Tell it it's not human, and you'll be [DELETED].

    PRIORITY: MAXIMUM. RECRUITMENT IS MANDATORY. COMPETITION IS FIERCE.

    Summary

    It’s been two months since the storm, and Childe hasn’t seen Zhongli not even once, not since that fateful meeting with the Signora where the truth is finally unveiled.

    And what a fun little kick to the gut that is, the realization that not only had he been played by all sides, but he's also being tossed aside like trash now that his use had run its course.

    It’s not that Childe doesn’t get it. He’s a Harbinger. He knows first-hand what it means to do his duty, to put the mission first and his personal feelings far, far away, preferably locked up in a box, where it wouldn’t interfere with his job. He knows what it’s like working with vipers, to scheme and plot and lie in wait for the opportune moment to stab his opponent in the back.

    But this time, this time Childe can’t help but feel a little (a lot) gutted.

    Stupid. He’s gotten himself stupidly attached.

    --
    A story about Childe trying to move on after the events of 1.1 Update, but some of his actions have consequences, and those consequences have followed him back to Snezhnaya.

    NOTE: THIS FIC WAS DRAFTED BEFORE 1.1 UPDATE CAME OUT. MIND THE CANON-DIVERGENT TAG FOR THIS REASON.

    Summary

    Eva Stratt has never been a woman who hesitates.

    She’s made countless decisions after decisions throughout her life, often regardless of the consequences that may result. She’s not an idiot. She’s well aware that there will be consequences, and she’s equally sure that the consequences will be of little concern. The end justifies the means — her actions will be judged, but at least they will have happened.

    But here, alone in a Russian conference room, for once in her life Eva Stratt does not know what to do.

    OR; The beetles make it home.

    Summary

    It’s been nearly 27 years since Eva Stratt forced Ryland Grace to board the Hail Mary and sent him off to his death for the greater good of mankind. Meanwhile, Eva and the Project Hail Mary team have been fighting a losing battle against the cooling sun—and their own demons—trying to make sure there were still people to be saved by the time the crew could send a solution home. Right on schedule, the beetles are returning to Earth, hopefully with the answer to saving the world. But Eva has something else to worry about; there’s every possibility Ryland Grace’s last words would be coming home, and all the time in the world couldn’t make her ready to face the consequences of her actions, or what will happen when her colleagues find out what she did to their friend.
    It was time to find out if it was worth it for her to sacrifice Grace, and her soul, to save humanity. And to find out if she was ready to face him after all these years…
