    Summary

    When Eva Stratt comes to recruit Dr. Ryland Grace for the Astrophage Crisis, she expects a useful expert. She does not expect a brilliant, tightly wound Little with a sunshine-yellow sweater, a locked-down regression, and a talent for becoming her problem.

    As the years of prep grind on and the project narrows toward Baikonur, professional necessity turns into something such more dangerous: trust, protectiveness, and the kind of care neither of them has time to want.

    Summary

    “I don’t know who I am, I don’t know where I am. Why are you crying?”

    The man’s eyes had gone all watery in the matter of seconds, red at the rims of them, face softening just a little bit like he’d had some sort of life altering realization. 

    “Are you okay?” He asked, inching closer while the man scrambled off his rolling chair and stood taller, sniffling softly and hands shaking. 

    “No. Um–” the man’s mouth was agape, lips dry, face scruffy, and shaggy blonde hair stuck up all over the place. The man was dressed in soft sweatpants and some stupid graphic t-shirt that was rolled at the sleeves. He looked familiar, really, really familiar. “You look exactly like me.”

     

    (Ryland and Colt are both made to be members of the Hail Mary's crew. For a reason.)

    Summary

    The Hail Mary has been shot out into the depths of the infinite void of space to search for an answer that may not even be there. Aboard, the three crew members lay in stasis as the ship hurtles like an arrow towards a distant star, with no hope of return, but a desperate hope to make things right.

    At home, two brothers are left in sudden and violent grief. A woman grapples with whether or not she made the right decision. The world strains and suffers under the weight of the coming Fimbulwinter.

    And then one of the beetles returns.

    Thirteen years early.

    Summary

    “Talk.”

    There’s a hitch of breath on the other end before Colt manages to speak.

    “I know you only said to contact you when there’s an emergency, but I think this really, really counts for one, man... there was an explosion near the site where Ryland was working. It happened yesterday. It’s all over the news. I came to his apartment and it’s… Court, it’s wiped. Everything’s gone. I’ve been trying to call him, but he’s unreachable.

    I have a really, really bad feeling. I didn’t know what to do.”

    or

    Ryland Grace, youngest sibling of Colton and Courtland Gentry Grace, has gone MIA after a lab explosion. His older brother finds out.

    Summary

    Snippets from my AU where Ryland Grace and Colt Seavers are twins. Inspired by this tweet and the quote retweets that I saw bounced off of it, plus loads of my own ideas :D
