    Summary

    After saving Grace and nearly dying in an alien atmosphere, Rocky lays an egg before going dormant.

    Turns out being isolated for years and then nearly dying will force biological imperatives onto injured Eridians, and this one leaves Ryland Grace utterly baffled.

    Aren't Eridians supposed to lay eggs in clutches? Only fused eggs are supposed to be viable, but when Grace accidentally touches the egg with his bare skin while trying to save it, that's apparently all the genetic fusion required for life to begin.

    Ryland Grace skips a few steps when it comes to making a baby, and I test the limits of Eridian biology.

    Summary

    "Right." With his unoccupied hand, he twists his wedding ring. "You know what's a better way to die, though?"

    Ilyukhina looks up and smirks. "Orgasm?"

    Rocky laughs. "Yeah."

    They both laugh.

    Summary

    What the title says. About 11 years ago (from my perspective; relativity is weird) I was launched into space onboard the Hail Mary to figure out a solution to the Astrophage problem. Now I live on an alien planet I call Erid, in the 40-Eridani system. Yes, I’m actually Ryland Grace. Ask me anything.

    Also, can someone please tell me if Eva Stratt is alive? And ideally send me a video of you punching her in the face? Guess that’s a long shot, but it can’t hurt to ask.

    ---

    Grace and Rocky figure out how to connect to Earth's internet from Erid. They may not have thought this through.

    Summary

    "Rocky is incredibly optimistic. It’s actually one of the traits I like most about the little guy. If there was anyone on earth with even half as much hope and optimism as Rocky, the world would probably be a whole lot better of a place.

     

    I wish I could share that optimism. I try of course, but there's only so much a guy can do on his death bed before it starts to become a bit of a chore to stay happy and hopeful all the time."

     

    Rocky and Grace make it to Erid eventually. The only problem is that Grace never actually thought he was going to live to see it, now he actually has to figure out what to do for the rest of his life.
