    Summary

    Grace tries copying the tones.

    Rocky hums. “Close. Skip first note.”

    “Why? You always include that.”

    “This means… of Rocky, possessive. Of the speaker.”

    “My.”

    “Correct. But only for names.”

    “So you’re calling me…?”

    Rocky repeats the word: “My Grace. Yes.”

    Summary

    "I'll keep you updated. In the meantime, go back to sleep. When you need to worry, I'll tell you."

    "Heh." Ryland ran his hand down his face. "It's terrible you know that it actually makes me feel better. What would I do without you?"

    "Explode at a colleague at a conference and get expelled from academia and become a middle school teacher." Eva said, promptly.

    "Wow, you've thought about that way too hard." Ryland laughed. "Middle schoolers might not vape in class, though. Maybe I should switch."

    "Let's not joke."

    Summary

    “Listen,” Pepper says. “I’m at the food bank right now and Ms. Zavala from R&D called in sick. She has two students coming in this morning to be interviewed for the internship, 9 AM. I won’t be back in time, so if you could just talk to them, or at least start with the first one, until I get back.”
    Tony processes all that a moment.
    “Tony?” she asks.
    “You’re at the food bank? How much do I pay you?”
    She gives another little huff. “Charity, Tony. Did any of the actually important things I just said register in your brain?”
    “Oh, all right. Consider it my charity work for today.”
    -
    Pepper should have known it was a mistake, setting Tony’s dumb ass on these kids.

    Summary

    To make a long and deeply embarrassing story short, the Eridians have submitted a formal request to witness and perhaps ameliorate the negative effects of his long-suppressed heat.

    Translation: they want to watch him get off.

    And maybe also see if they can help. Personally.

    Summary

    A Rocky POV of Project Hail Mary, but add in a sprinkle of originally named astrophages, petrova lines, language barriers, trauma recovery, and extra, extra worldbuilding. Includes pre- and post-canon!

    La traduccion al espanol by MichiHolmes! Gracias!

    ***

    One day, his strumming was not answered.

    The silence that answered his one verse of song was horrible and grating. Incomplete. Empty. A sick, horrible fear built up inside him.

    (He was going to die out here. Alone.)

    ***

    "Iz huhg," Grace sniffled out, sucking back in moisture from his noze, too. There was moisture and water and everything all over the place. "Huhg meens grayt, grayt, grayt affekshun."

    "Oh," he said tentatively. Another hewmin thing! He shuffled closest to the wall Grace was huhging and leaned in. "Oh. Am I doing correctly, hmm?"

    "Yis," Grace sighed out, calming down. He still leaked, though.

    Oh, well. Leaky hewmins were his favorite, after all.

    Summary

    Rocky and Grace have been alone for so long, that it was only natural that they became (perhaps unhealthily) attached to the only other person they could interact with for several years. Separating them, even for very necessary reasons, isn't fun for either of them.
    When Rocky gifts Grace a stuffed animal to ease the loneliness, Grace quickly becomes almost just as attached. Rocky, on the other hand, starts to wish that Grace would (and could) hold him like that.

    Summary

    I start to get increasingly frustrated each time I attempt to get my message across, each time it matches my speed, attempting to copy my speech each time. I let out a shrill sound as I grumble, drawing my claws back from the barrier. I stand taller, stilling my limbs before I tap as hard as I possibly can.

    “Are you fucking stupid?! Behind! Behind you! I left something behind you! Just turn around! Stop fucking copying me and pay attention!”

    Summary

    There was one universal constant as far as drifting went: twin’s had the best compatibility.

    Ryland? Ryland was not a pilot. He understood the situation, the threat, the stakes, everything that was on the line. But he was not a Jaeger pilot.

    He looked at Colt, he knew Colt wouldn’t ask him directly. And wasn’t that really its own sort of asking?

    Or

    Colt just lost his co-pilot. That didn’t mean the danger stopped.

    Summary

    He’s actively stepping around Rocky, stepping over him, and heading towards the other end of the lab, cabinets and rows of samples. He could find something else here to look at, check up on the Taumoeba farms…

    Except, he doesn’t even make it to the threshold to cross the hallway of the ship. His feet stop. A complete, precise standstill.

    Rocky had chittered at him, a short burst of notes, monosyllabic in Eridian despite the layers of chords. He registered it not as any word, yet the command still struck.

    Stay.

    Heeled. Like a dog.

    And it wasn’t by any doing of Grace’s own decision making.

    Summary

    Fault tolerance/catastrophic functionality:
    a system's capability to handle faults without any degradation or downtime. [...] Failure tolerant systems mask errors and maintain failure-free operation in the presence of one or more faulty components. [Wikipedia]


    Eva Stratt knows Ryland Grace has a problem.

    But the end of the world doesn't stop for one man's problems, and she can't afford to lose her leading Astrophage expert to rehab.

    Summary

    If this record is a confession, let it be a complete one: the human-thinking-machine Rocky was gifted has everything on it. With the aid of the device Rocky had made back aboard the Mary that translates light on Grace’s human-visual displays to texture on Rocky’s Eridian-sonar display, accessing all of humanity’s combined wisdom is as easy as making a database query.

    Rocky consumes approximately 1,600 Earth-hours of human pornography before the ship’s engines cease to function, leaving it dead and stranded in space. Again.

    Summary

    “Grace. What are you testing, question?”

    Rocky. I can’t put this all on the guy right now. He should be happy. We are going to Erid. We are going to save his planet.

    “CBC. A complete blood count.” I answer, hoping he doesn’t ask me why.

    “Purpose, question?”

    Rocky, please. I’m trying to spare you right now.

     

     

    Basically, Grace gets exposed to a dangerous amount of radiation during an EVA and doesn't want to tell Rocky bc of what happened to Rocky's crew <3

     

    THIS IS A REWORKED VERSION OF "TEMPEST" - after some comments, I wanted to keep the soul of the story, but make it more scientifically plausible. While there are still probably some inaccuracies, I still hope this isn't as messy as before.

    Summary

    “So I’m both,” Tim decides slowly. “Someone who’s done a lot. And someone who hasn’t. Depending on which angle you look at.”

    “Yeah,” Jason says. “Schrödinger’s slut.” His mouth twitches. “Sorry. Bad joke.”

    Tim, against all odds, laughs.

    “A terrible joke.”

    “Yeah,” Jason says again. “But it made you laugh, so I’m counting it as a win.”

     

    or: Tim loses 10 years of his memories, including the fact that he has a husband. And a cat. Let's not forget about the cat. Tim thinks it's the end of the world, but actually ends up having very nice time with Jason. After all, what's more fun than losing his virginity? - Losing it twice, of course.
