the planet earth is blue (and there's nothing i can do) by leolikethestar
Fandoms: Project Hail Mary (2026)
01 Jun 2026

Summary
Why would Grace be so scared to admit that he needs help? On Erid, when someone somehow falls sick, the entire family gathers to take care of them. Was that not customary on Earth? Rocky could hardly stomach the thought… humans suffering, cold and alone, with no one to comfort them…
OR: Ryland Grace gets a nasty cough when the Hail Mary is only about halfway to Erid. Rocky doesn’t know what to do, or how to help, until it might be too late.

Summary
The intruder enters the kitchen slowly, limbs held low to the ground. Their carapace tilts from side to side as they draw near, fixing their auricles on me.
The xenosuit they have on looks cobbled together, almost experimental. It’s not see-through like my team’s suits are. It wasn’t designed with my light detectors in mind. Instead, it’s dark and opaque, and not at all helping to dispel the impression of a masked burglar in my home.
I’ve never seen that body language in person before, but I understand it on an instinctual level. Eridians are the apex predators of their planet. It’s a hunting stance, and I am the prey.
or: Grace experiences a home invasion on Erid.

Summary
“Oh,” I sigh, rubbing still-shaking hands across my stubbly face because oh, that was so close. Too close. We were supposed to be done with the theatrics, with the life-and-death bullhonkey.
What the heck, universe? Not cool.
I don’t want to move for a bit. The siren song of dissociation calls my name, and honestly, I’m so, so chill with just sitting here for a second and decompressing and trying to remember all the breathing techniques I learned for my students, butー
But the lights are still flashing red, flashing with urgency and Mary is saying something and I have to drag my mind, kicking and screaming, back to focusー
“-ected. Toxic gas in Laboratory detected. Toxic gas in Laboratory-” Mary drones, and once it clicks into place the cold sweat is backー
Oh god noー
The banging noise. The gas leak. The lab.
Rocky.

You realise that you're pulling your limbs closer to yourself, hunkering down, and force yourself to relax. There's nothing to be scared of. Grace isn't sick, you would have noticed. Right? And even if it is sick, it's not dying, its ship is protected from radiation, so it won't be like- it's going to wake up. You will watch over it until it wakes up.
Grace has a nightmare. Rocky takes it badly.

So conspiracy theories were a thing on Erid. Oftentimes just as confusing as the ones on Earth. But otherwise mostly harmless.
Mostly.

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
A month after Alec moved in, he suggested that they redecorate the apartment together.
“No.”
Magnus frowned. “No?”
Alec turned the page of the book he was reading, apparently completely unconcerned with the conversation. “I mean, it’s sweet of you to ask, but it’s unnecessary.”
Alec doesn't have a lot of things to bring to Magnus's apartment when he moves in after they get married, and he doesn't have any interest in changing the apartment to suit him better. This bothers Magnus, and he's not quite sure why or what to do about it.

"I learned how to dance."
Magnus got a bad feeling for the second time that night. "I'm not sure the problem has ever been that you didn't know how to dance, it was in the execution."
Alec rolled his eyes. “Fine, then I've been improving my execution of my dancing knowledge. I’ve been taking lessons.”
On their sixth anniversary, Alec surprises Magnus with a gift that Magnus once dreamed about.

“You’re scared.”
Magnus straightened up, his eyes flashing, indignant. “Excuse me?”
“You think I don’t notice the way you avoid the subject every time I bring it up? ‘The past is the past, Alexander’ and ‘let’s take it one day at a time, Alexander.’ We can’t hide from this stuff forever, Magnus. We need to talk.”
Magnus Bane has had seventeen thousand lovers, give or take. But he's only ever had one husband. And that husband just brought up the immortality question.

"Because we're friends," she says with a shrug and a smile.
Alec experiences a rare moment where his mind blanks completely. He stares at her like he's never seen her before.
Clary's bright smile loses some wattage after ten full seconds tick by. "Aren't we?"

The Light at the End of the Spider Tunnel by Chailily

Summary
Drow are quite inconveniently sensitive to daylight. Essek considers it a burden to both himself and his traveling companions.
When fighting off an onslaught of light-sensitive Aeorian spiders, Essek has to confront the fact that the Nein might not consider him an inconvenience at all.
———
The spiders pressed in further. Essek gave a flippant gesture with one arm, to the tune of ‘just do it already—I am not so fragile.’
‘Fajar’, Caleb said as he relented, hoisting the orb into the air. The driftglobe exploded like the sun itself.

Summary
Caleb is late coming home from Soltryce and Essek is worried. He is right to be.
Caleb had approximately four different paths he regularly took from Soltryce to his home. Given that it was a Wednesday, Astrid was on business in Nicodranas, and their usual butcher had a family emergency in the countryside, there were really only two routes he was likely to take. Factoring in Caleb’s distaste for the cacophony of Wednesday’s market in the square at the midway point and that it was sweet corn season, Essek assumed he would take the more winding of the routes to pass by the quieter vegetable stand and the baker.
It was not a overly long walk, but as Essek marched through the street, he bitterly thought that it was long enough to take time he worried he did not have.

Summary
What determines where you end up when you hold one location in your mind with intent, but touch a different teleportation token? Essek will consider this later. Instead, as he plunges into the ocean off the coast of Rumblecusp, his body and mind freeze.
Essek does not have a first thought.
His second thought is less of a thought, and more of the primal, deep scream of the body locking up from the combination of rapid temperature change and sudden immersion. Verbal, somatic, material: it is all irrelevant when one is unable to think or move.
Essek accidentally teleports into the ocean while evading the Dynasty. 0/10 does not recommend.

Summary
On their second trip into Aeor, Caleb and Essek just wanted to end a long, tiring day by curling up in bed together. Maybe in another reality.
“Herr Shadowhand,” he intones as flat and long-sufferingly as possible while the curl of his mouth trembles traitorously, “I thought we agreed, no more arcane bullshit today.”
If Essek were currently capable of speech he’d have something endearingly bitchy to say about that, no doubt.
