    Summary

    Two-body problem: A problem of classical mechanics to calculate and predict the motion of two massive bodies that are orbiting each other in space.

    “Adrian, just a small warning: the Rocky that came back might not be the Rocky you know. It’s classified, but my friend is one of the comms specialist on the space elevator. They told me things. He acts… weird. He doesn’t sleep, and neglects the medical and psychological exams. I’m not sure he’s here, if you know what I mean."
    “Where is he, then?” Adrian’s musical notes come out discordant.
    “Wherever his human companion is stuck. If the alien dies, Rocky might never come down from the stars.”

    Or; twenty-three friends leave for the most dangerous mission known to Erid, two strangers return.

    Summary

    Disaster strikes the Hail Mary on its way back to Earth. The taumoeba escape their breeding tanks, and make it to the fuel lines. Stranded in space just outside the Tau Ceti system, Dr Ryland Grace can't do anything. He can't go save Rocky, he can't go save Earth. Exhausted, out of options, and distraught, he fills the ship with nitrogen, and takes his final breath.
    Next thing he knows, his eyes flutter open in his San Francisco apartment. It's a year before ArcLight touches down on Earth, but he remembers the Petrova Task Force.
    He's not the only one.

    Summary

    The Light had turned Simon inside out and put him back together. He couldn't imagine that it had accidentally given him a gift during reassembly.

    --

    Simon blinks into existence in the Hail Mary's airlock, injured minutes ago, killed seconds ago, and already healed.

    Grace lays bedridden at the bottom of the Hail Mary, two months away from Erid and dying from malnutrition.

    Summary

    Undeniably, Adrian’s life will change irreversibly once again just for having sat in this ship, having chatted with an alien being from another solar system; he would be a fool if he didn’t understand that before stepping aboard.

    What Adrian did not foresee: whatever strange, powerful allure this human has established over his mate is fully transmissible.
