    Summary

    Eva Stratt knew that the Hail Mary's mission would be tough. Human psyches are so very fragile, and emotions can make people act erratically.
    That was why she chose a fourth member of the Hail Mary crew. Someone who could make difficult decisions.

    Enter: Simon.

    Summary

    Grace has come to terms with the fact that he will never see another human or Earth again. And that's okay, because he's happy on Erid with Rocky and Adrian. However, with the Hail Mary in mint condition, the Eridians propose that he travel to a red moon in a planetary system with a dead sun, along with Adrian and Rocky, to determine just why it's so...weird. The answer's no. Obviously.

    Until they hear a human distress signal coming from that exact moon, and suddenly everything changes.

    Summary

    Two years after arriving on Erid, Dr. Ryland Grace has built a new life for himself with his Eridian family and students. Twice a year, Rocky and Grace do orbital sweeps around Erid to make sure the astrophage has died for good, just to cover all their bases. But on this trip, Grace notices something he never had before. A moon, not far off, covered in an ocean of blood.

    Coming in closer, the complex Eridian instruments pick up on something below. Somehow, the ship is able to tap into a radio frequency from someone on the planet. And it sounds almost... human.

    Summary

    Simon wakes up. He hadn't thought he would wake up after his lungs were filled with blood. And yet, here he is, in a pitch-black room, wounds tended to, listening to the most beautiful song he's ever heard.
    He's in a world where the stars are alive, and he's been rescued from his blood-soaked iron coffin by a strange, clever little rock-spider alien trying to save the stars. Of course he'll help. Too bad neither of them are biologists...
    But the new human ship approaching them might have someone aboard who is... if they don't turn Simon into a lab rat first, anyway.

    [BloodyMary where Simon gets wormholed to PHM 'verse but it's before the Hail Mary arrives, so he's saved by Rocky and spends a while on the Blip-A]

    Summary

    Simon is more convinced that this is hell. He will be forced to relive his last moments alive for eternity, his blood wasted to slick the throat of the eel. He will be chewed, dissolved, discarded, entombed, chewed, dissolved, discarded, entombed for infinity. He tries to exercise some will in this cycle by falling back into unconsciousness. After all, he figures, if this truly is his punishment, some devil will ensure he’s awake to feel his death.

    It is not a devil who wakes him. His eyes open to see a light lift him from the blood, pull him from the grasping hands of the damned.

    “Angel?”

    The angel does not respond.

    ------------------------

    On their way back to Erid, Rocky and Grace encounter some weird blips. They've been watching Scooby-Doo and are getting a bit bored so might as well do some sleuthing of their own, right? Who knows, could be someone else trying to fix the Astrophage problem. And it's on the way! How convenient! They aren't prepared to find another human, who is living a blood soaked submarine. In space.
