Summary
What the title says. About 11 years ago (from my perspective; relativity is weird) I was launched into space onboard the Hail Mary to figure out a solution to the Astrophage problem. Now I live on an alien planet I call Erid, in the 40-Eridani system. Yes, I’m actually Ryland Grace. Ask me anything.
Also, can someone please tell me if Eva Stratt is alive? And ideally send me a video of you punching her in the face? Guess that’s a long shot, but it can’t hurt to ask.

Grace and Rocky figure out how to connect to Earth's internet from Erid. They may not have thought this through.

Summary
The Hail Mary has been housing three for some time. The dinner situation is not going very well.
Rocky can get along fine on Eridian food, and due to his mutations, Simon can too.
It's Grace's lack of Earth rations that are the problem.
OR
Simon and Rocky have to watch as their saving Grace starves in front of them.

Summary
The awareness of time is a delicate thing.
It is slipping rapidly from Grace's fingers. Grace, who is starving to death, who is still recovering from the most precise amnesia Earth could give him, who turned around and left Earth in the hands of the Beetles save his one dearest companion even though it would kill him, is still a scientist at heart. Scientists solve problems. He finds ways to keep track.
Rocky wouldn't approve, but what Rocky doesn't know won't hurt him.

Summary
It's not jealousy. Adrian is adamant about that. They are actually insisting that it’s not any emotion at all. Not even dislike. They are simply completely uninterested in anything that concerns “the human”.
Rocky believes them. Adrian has always been the level-headed one out of the two of them. They are too logical to be jealous. They acknowledge that Grace and Rocky have a special bond after everything they went through together and also understand that none of that will ever pose a threat to their relationship.
Neither are they heartless or ungrateful. They know that Grace is the only reason that Rocky is back at all, the only reason their star has stopped dying. Adrian has told Rocky again and again that they are grateful and happy and wish the alien no ill will. They even helped with the construction of the biodome.
And yet they have no desire to get to know Grace.
**************
You know those videos where the dad is like "You may keep the cat but I will have nothing to do with it" and a few days later they are smothering the kitty with cuddles and love?
Adrian never stood a chance.

Summary
“It occurs to me, after spending a few weeks with Rocky intermittently in his new suit, that I may have messed up some neural pathways in my brain. Rewired them.
I can hug Rocky now. I can hold his hand, or pat the top of his carapace, or pester him until he cards his claws through my hair. Pretty much anything I can think of, I can do with him. It’s not without limitations, of course, the suits’s structural support occasionally providing some challenges to work around, but it should be enough.
Yet, I find myself craving more. Not in frequency, but in intensity. I want to lay arched backwards over him until every vertebra in my spine hurts. I want him to tug the tangles in my hair and scratch at my scalp until I can feel it in the bone of my skull. I want my ribs to creak with every hug. I want more heat than the barrier will let through. To feel it prickle and sear against my skin—just the right side of actually burning. I want to dig my cheek into the jagged edges of him until they imprint on my skin.”

Summary
“Robot,” Yào calls out. “How long — how long was I asleep?”
The robot whirrs. “You have been in a medically induced coma for — one hundred — eighty — one — days,” it reports.
Yào’s not as quick at theoretical maths as Dr. Grace or Ilyukhina, but he’s pretty handy with the normal stuff. One hundred and eighty-one days is … just shy of six months. He runs the numbers again, counts them out slower in his head. It’s the same result.
It’s not enough time. It’s not nearly enough time. It’s not even enough time to be completely out of their fucking solar system.
Yào wakes up early.

Summary
Changed or not, five limbs or four, she had a mission to do. Billions of people were counting on her, trillions of life forms. So long as she had breath in this fucked up body of hers, she would not rest until she saved the Earth or died trying. And then died after. Only heroes got the heroin overdose.
Or
Ilyukhina and Yáo were not buried in space, but on Erid, along with the crew of the Blip-A. For reasons beyond their understanding, they both wake back up, but something is seriously wrong with them. And why isn't Grace among them?

Summary
Grace is unprepared for the level of love that all of Erid seemed to have for him. It was vaguely terrifying, but also.... nice? To be cared for. To be wanted.
It gets worse when they find out the circumstances of him ending up on the Hail Mary.
When his declining health necessitates a trip back to Earth, he is faced with a planet that loves him so fiercely and wonderfully that it finally starts to break through his crippling lack of self worth and bloom into something incredible.
And Earth? Earth has to deal with an Erid that is polite, protective, and most of all, pissed.

Curiosity kills by Soowshie

Summary
Something was standing above his towel.
No… someone.
They seemed to be observing the towel, claws tapping against the material with what he took as curiosity, pinching it between the appendage.
Was it Rocky? It’d make sense, the Eridian would certainly have something harsh to say about him leaving his stuff laying around. He always had some mean quip to insult his shoddy human memory.
He opened his mouth to defend himself before Rocky could say something snappy, when the figure then moved, stocky legs rising from beneath their carapace and lifting them to their full standing height.
They were tall. Too tall.
That wasn’t Rocky.

Grace receives an unexpected visitor one night in his home on Erid.

“Rocky, I’m here, okay? Come back to me, pal, please.”
Of course I will, I think, drawn to that voice, that strange, wobbling voice, which I care about without knowing exactly why, and I should – it makes me angry, not knowing – I should know –

Summary
Ryland Grace found the gun on the forty-third day.
He’d been reorganizing the storage bay — not because it needed reorganizing, but because his hands needed something to do and his brain needed something small enough to manage — when his fingers closed around the case at the back of the cabinet. Compact. Heavier than it looked.
He knew what it was before he opened it.
Yao’s gun. Captain Yao, who had died in a coma before the Hail Mary reached Tau Ceti, along with Ilyukhina. Who had carried a gun on the mission for reasons Grace understood too well.

Summary
“Is okay Grace, just eat, then sleep, you feel better, then we fix food.” He soothes, and goes back to that same low pitch sound, it’s him just rambling about what he can but it’s in a range that makes me feel instantly calm.
He thinks I’m sick again, for me that was a couple of years ago, so much time for me has passed for me, it was 4.44% of my life ago, for him it was only 1% of his life ago, it just happened to him, the worry and panic may not have even left his nervous system. He also knows so little about humans, maybe with the short space in between he didn’t even have a moment to realize the problem was fixed.
Aka Grace is not sick just bad at eating and Rocky is very bad at copeing.

Summary
For three hours, he’s at the beach, takes off his socks and hikes Ilyukhina’s dress up, and stands in the water. He left the cane on the shore; it hurts to let his frame bear the brunt of gravity unsupported. The reliable tide, just cool enough to chill him a little, laps at his shins.
He closes his eyes and tries to forget about himself, the familiar ache in his joints and spine. Allows himself to imagine something else.
A different truth, a hypothetical, a thought exercise.
Rocky can't bear to lose Grace. But he can bear to watch Grace wither away from a sickness easily cured by Earth medicine even less.
Grace has to make another choice.
Or: After thirteen years on Erid, Grace leaves his true home for Earth. Eva Stratt lives to see him return. Earth takes note of the changes.
