    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

    Grace is crabby and picks a fight with Rocky, who doesn't realize that something is very wrong until he asks him to watch him sleep and wakes up to an overly emotional, sleepy, disoriented Grace. Turns out, Mary is broken, leading to toxic atmospheric changes on Grace's side of the ship. Rocky fixes.

    Summary

    It's not cold like that time Ryland went camping in the Rockies. That had been fun. Finding a cold spot in your spaceship 13-light years away from home? Not fun.
    Which is especially bad because apparently he's the only one who can feel it.

    Summary

    On the way to Erid, Rocky decides it's time for Grace to learn Eridian. Too bad neither of them have any background in linguistics.

    OR

    Turns out an alien language isn't anything at all like human language. Who'd've thunk it.

    Summary

    "Many stages in Eridian reproductive process. Rocky Adrian laying cycles finally sync up recently. So, Rocky Adrian think finally time for eggs. Adrian lay five eggs, very good. Only, strange thing happen. Rocky only lay one egg."

    “Oh,” I say. “That’s unusual, right?”

    "Very," Rocky hums.

    My throat tightens. "Does that mean there's something wrong? Are you sick?"

    Rocky makes a gesture I usually interpret as "not exactly". "Not sick," he says. "But doctors still worry. When Eridian start to make fewer eggs, this usually means laying period of life is over soon. Rocky very young for this. Rocky supposed to be in ideal time of life for laying. Rocky younger than Adrian, even." He shifts on three of his feet. Already, my mind is racing ahead, wondering -- "Doctors told Rocky to ask Grace, is this radiation side effect, question?"

    Summary

    I lived with this hunger long before the Hail Mary. This is nothing new. I’m fine.

    Right up until Rocky asks another question.

    “When last time you touch other human person skin, question?”

    Oh. Oh no. “When I… a few days after I first woke up here.”

    Rocky starts to relax for a split second, but then tightens when something occurs to him.

    “Grace crewmates dead when you wake up. You said this, statement. You not even know your own name, remember nothing, see dead bodies, confirm?”

    I nod, because if I open my mouth I will gag.

    “When last time Grace touch ALIVE human person, question.”

    I swallow thickly. I don’t answer aloud because I know Rocky can hear the hitch in my breath. My stomach churns with fresh bile. He senses my vital signs tick over into stress patterns and goes very, very still again.

    “Grace. When last time, question.”

    I clench my jaw so hard my temples ache, and beg him with my eyes to just stop.

    “Grace. Please say not when… when Evil Stratt humans put you to sleep.”

    I can taste grass.

    ---

    AKA: Grace starves for more than just food on the journey to Erid.

    Summary

    The Creature Power Suits were a brilliant and powerful attribution to science. They also had the potential to be an even greater weapon. Aviva always took steps to ensure they would never fall into the wrong hands, but no one could ever have predicted this.

    Or:

    A new villain ends up on the Wild Kratts' radar and he's determined to harness the powers of the CPS. The fact that they are too unstable to be operated by anyone besides the two people they were designed for is a minor obstacle.

    Summary

    Over the years, there were times when Mr. Ant Tenna thought of what it would be like if he ever saw his flighty former co-host again. What he might say or do to convey just how much the little mailman’s sudden departure had sent Tenna’s world crashing down. Sixteen years apart certainly gave one time to ruminate on such a thing, after all; let the resentment fester and transform into a bitter feeling the aged television couldn’t even name anymore.

    Funny, how Tenna had found himself unprepared in every sense of the word when it actually happened.

    Summary

    "Hunter didn’t regret keeping things to himself. It wasn’t his nature to be so vulnerable. But maybe if he had clued the others in, they would have understood his reasons for being so jumpy. Maybe they would have been more vigilant too.

    And maybe, if they had been, he wouldn’t have been alone when the danger eventually caught up with them."

    -

    Post "King's Tide", the gang is trying to recover and regroup in the human realm. Fate (and Belos) have other plans. This turns out to be very bad news for Hunter.

    Summary

    " “It's been too long. We have been trying so hard and been so hopeful and it's just -” Amity runs her hands down her face, “- it's not fair! We were distracted for barely a minute and the portal closed behind Belos like some sick joke.”

    “Amity!” Willow hushes, looking from her to Hunter. "

    Or:

    After Belos possessed Hunter, the portal closes too quickly for anyone to follow him through. Trapped all over again in the Human Realm, Hunter has nothing to do but fester in Flapjack's death, his failure to get his friends home, and his past with Belos.

    Summary

    After the events of Eclipse Lake, things go differently. Hunter disappears for a few days after his fight with Amity.

But something about him seems… different.

    Summary

    “You were almost perfect, Hunter. I even managed to create you without that dreadful bile sac the spell kept giving your predecessors. You were almost him. But not quite. The ears, you see. And the eyes. They’re the only giveaway. No human has pointed ears or pink eyes. So you see, there’s nothing else for it. They have to be removed if you're to pass in the Human Realm."

    During the events of Clouds on the Horizon, Hunter is taken to Belos instead of Luz and Belos offers to forgive and allow his nephew a chance to return to his side.

    Summary

    Hunter believes he can finally leave his past behind to create a normal life for himself. Wishing he had his first friend to talk to again, he starts writing letters to Flapjack. He starts his first term of school, spends quality time with his friends, and avoids thinking about everything that came before this moment. Who cares that he’s a grimwalker or that he was the evil emperor’s right-hand-man or that he’s always staring at other witches’ palismen? None of that matters. The past is in the past.

    But the past isn’t so easy to ignore when you were made from a 350 year old body. Not every mirror can be covered; not every secret can be buried. As Hunter’s past gets dug up and put on public display, he fights to keep it buried—even if that means he’ll have to bury himself.

    Summary

    Because when Luz died, she met the Titan. She met his God. She saw Him and talked to Him and He had blessed her for she had been Chosen to come back from the dead to cleanse the Boiling Isles of its one true sin. Belos.

    When he died, there was only pain and fear and the sense he was being grabbed and dragged down down down-

    And then there was nothing.
