    Summary

    It didn't make any sense.
    A square of inky blackness stood before him. A perfect doorway.
    The blood dripped down into the expanse, freezing into crystalline little bubbles in the zero gravity, moons of themselves. Simon moved closer to it, pulled in by the suction, and…
    It didn’t make sense.
    It was full of stars.
    --
    OR: Through divine intervention, Simon is dropped into the path of the Hail Mary once its mission has been completed.

    Summary

    “I can’t,” Simon pleaded, voice breaking. “Fuck, Ryland, I can’t, I can’t—”
    “Even if I want you to?” Grace asked, and Simon’s breath caught in his chest. “Let go, Simon. Whatever you want to do to me, I’m game.”
    “Don’t say that. Fuck, don’t say that. You don’t know what you’re asking for.”
    “Don't discredit me. I know what I want.”
    Simon jerked away from him with a snarl. “You’re gonna get hurt. I can’t control myself.”
    “Then let me help you.

    Four months ago, the Eridians found a human welded into a metal box on the bottom of an ocean made of human blood, and somehow that's not the weirdest thing about the man. Even after they let him out of quarantine, he doesn't talk much, and Grace keeps a cordial but distant relationship with him--until he gets sick with some mystery illness and Grace gets tasked with helping him recover, because surely he knows what to do. (Spoiler alert: he doesn't. But he figures it out.)

    Summary

    After years of believing he was going to be alone forever, Ryland Grace is informed of a spacecraft drifting near Erid. The survivor he pulls aboard is Simon: younger, scarred, broad-shouldered, and carrying enough religious trauma to fill a spaceship. As recovery turns into late-night conversations, shared nightmares, and one very crowded bed, two men who have both been starved of human touch begin to realize that survival is easier when someone is there to reach back.

    or

    Ryland Grace rescues a human he thought he’d never find. Simon is wounded, haunted, and convinced he doesn’t deserve saving. Ryland disagrees.

    EDIT: this story now has two endings like a choose-your-own adventure novel

    Summary

    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

    On their way back to Erid, Rocky and Grace discover a mysterious box. Upon opening it, the two discover some strange changes. Well, perhaps way more than strange.

    Rocky finds a new marking on his arm similar to Grace's scar, and Grace finds markings similar to Rocky's on his arms and legs.

    Rocky begins to dream and can easily wake from sleep, and Grace can stay up for much longer than a normal human should.

    Grace starts seeing sound when it's too dark to properly see, and Rocky starts seeing pops of colour in his sound vision.

    Neither can understand what's happening to them and how they're seemingly linked together, but they know there's nothing in the world that could tear them apart.

    (TLDR: This fic will include almost everyone's favourite things! Rocky learns about how Grace got on the Hail Mary (Including Rocky witnessing the memory of Grace being sent on the Hail Mary)! Grace can survive in Rocky's atmosphere! Grace will live as long as Rocky! Rocky and Adrian reuinite and Adrian meets Grace! Grace will get to go back to Earth with Rocky (for a bit and then go back to Erid)! Grace will get to confront and get closure with Stratt! Fanart included!)

    Summary

    Initially Based on the tumblr textpost (Unseenorchid!) because this idea is hilarious;
    You can consolidate the differences between book!Erid customs and movie!Erid customs if you accept that movie Rocky is just a freak.

    After 40 earth years alone in the Tau Ceti system, Grace shouldn't be surprised that Rocky is quite... eccentric. Hes also extremely avoidant, emotionally volatile, and accidentally on purpose didn't disclose certain things to Grace.

    Rocky is grasping at straws here. He's literally been walking around stark naked and worse, *eating*, in front of the most important alien representative he will ever meet. Adrian is going to combust. He has to explain all these issues to Grace before they get to Erid.

    [Initially supposed to be a crack fic, it devolved into angst. Even I was shocked and I was the one writing it.]
    Not decided if this will be a slash pairing yet. I will let the public decide. Please excuse spelling/grammar, I wrote this very fast.

    Summary

    I know that Rocky should be getting tired soon; he has been refusing to sleep in order to keep watch over me, and I know it’s only a matter of time until his body gives out on him, which is when I can make my move. I’ll need to decide whether to shoot myself or overdose before he falls asleep.
    Tldr: Grace is very sick and tries to kill himself to get it over with
    im taking a very short break on this one. but will be back soon

    Summary

    “No.” Rocky said, cutting Grace off. “Grace big.” His carapace did a slow tilt in a very pointed ‘look down’ kind of motion.

    Grace swallowed hard and looked away from Rocky with another laugh, albeit more awkward and forced than before as he reached for the pipette.

    “That’s kinda something you’re supposed to pretend you haven’t noticed, pal.” He said stiffly and adjusted his weight on the chair. Maybe if he just silently acknowledged and made peace with how pink his face was it would go away.

    -----

    or, alternatively: grace has a massive dick. rocky is ovulating and horny about it.

    Summary

    At our next Maximizing Rocky Happiness meeting, I pitch my idea to Adrian over a walk down the beach.

    They don’t say anything for several seconds after I finish my explanation. Maybe it was a bad idea to share. Finally, Adrian asks, their tone dry, “You want to put Eridian eggs inside squishy human body, question?

    Summary

    The more that I think about it, the more I believe in the small possibility that my unfertilized eggs may be safe for Grace to consume. It’s at least worth trying, I resolve, as I watch him cry himself to sleep for the fourth consecutive cycle. His stomach is constricting, growling loudly. He’s been unable to keep the coma slurry from resurfacing once again.

    I can detect his body shutting down. I decide I can't allow this to continue. I won't allow myself to sit by and watch idly as he dies in front of me, like so many others have before him.

    Unfortunately, there is only one method that I can use to procure Eridian eggs for Grace's consumption.

    Summary

    Ever since Grace and Rocky landed on Erid, Rocky has been glued to Grace’s side, refusing to leave him alone. Grace is worried about his friend. Rocky has not even seen his mate more than a handful of times since they arrived. This is, obviously, a problem. He doesn’t want to keep Rocky away from the love of his life.

    Grace isn’t as sick anymore. He doesn’t need Rocky at his side all the time. Grace will do what he has to do so that Rocky and Adrian can resume living a normal life together. So what if Grace struggles to be alone? This is for Rocky’s sake. He’ll be okay.

    But Grace has severely underestimated how much he needs Rocky, and how much Rocky needs him.

    ——————————————————————————
    Or: Grace and Rocky are severely codependent. Adrian gets tangled up in their mess, too.

    Summary

    All at once, Grace's heart feels like it's shattering. Adrian and Grace had many heart to heart conversations here in the moonlight next to the water, but they had never talked about consent and bodily autonomy in reference to Rocky's exuberance. It was here, actually, that Grace had spilled to Adrian the true purpose of how he ended on Hail Mary, even before he told Rocky.

    Adrian was so steady, so logical and calm and confident, that Grace had felt safe from the moment they met and Adrian had felt comfortable enough to curl a claw around his hand.

    It was this safety and comfort that led to a harebrained idea. Now that he thought it, he couldn't unthink it. He… wanted to kiss Adrian. He wanted his first kiss with another life form to be Adrian. He wanted to feel safe in his body and choices and know his boundaries would be respected.
