    Summary

    Two worlds. In both Kronos used his last seconds of freedom to curse his children.

    In one world Kronos cursed his children with infertility. All their children would be born still and breathless, or twisted and monstrous with few exceptions. Broken.

    In another world Kronos cursed his children to be unable to feel love. To be as cruel and selfish as they accused him of being. Heartless.

    A childless Hermes driven by grief steals into the home of the Fates hoping to pilfer any trinket or tidbit that might help break the curse. What he steals instead is knowledge of the existence of the multiverse and how a God with his very specific domains and skills might traverse it.

    Summary

    In one world, Fate was less careful with those it chose to steal, taking whatever threads it could to fix the broken tapestry of its world. In this world, it was careful. It took those that would not be missed. The cannon fodder. The ignored. The ones who did not hold godly favor. Fate took them, and this world will not be so easy to give them up.

    Inspired by Misaligned Stars by FictionalDragonMother! The idea for the Broken Pantheon AU belongs to FictionalDragonMother. If you haven't read the original story already, I highly recommend it!

    Summary

    Simon dies in the Blood Ocean, only to find out he's not actually dead and has somehow, someway (usually a wormhole) managed to wind up on either the Hail Mary, or Erid.

    Well, that's not this story. In THIS story, Simon wakes up on Stratt's Vat; heavily wounded, irradiated, and mutated. One thing he knows for sure is that he should *not* be alive. Maybe that's why Ryland Grace is so interested in him. For the mystery of it.

    Summary

    Erid had lost hope of the crew they sent to space ever returning. And then they spot a different ship coming towards them and a pebble talking to them over the radio about how they and Rocky found the solution to the star-killer problem. Chaos, of course, ensues.

    Aka. The Eridians assume Grace is a pebble.

    Summary

    “Dr. Grace? As in the Dr. Grace who studied the Arclight samples and named Astrophage?" Minoru felt as if he was going to explode from excitement, “He’s here? On this boat?!”

    Ilyukhina laughed and Minoru didn’t even care that she was making fun of him. Even Dubois seemed a little taken aback by the enthusiasm. Shapiro though— her eyes were glowing.

    “Yes he’s on the boat!”

    “Do you think we’ll get to meet him?!”

    “Who do you think is going to teach us how to handle Astrophage?” Dubois asked, like he thought they were both overreacting. Minoru felt like he was going to faint.

    Alternatively: Ryland Grace in the eyes of others during his time on The Petrova Task Force and Project Hail Mary.
