    Summary

    You wished for anything, anyone, to get you out of these damned loops, and the Universe gave you exactly what you wished for! And it put you right smack dab at the beginning of it all!

    Meanwhile a middle aged woman gets off a boat, stepping foot onto Vaugardian soil for the first time. Too bad her timing isn't the best, she's here to go on a journey of heritage, and has instead wrapped herself up in saving the country. Could be worse.

    Especially when there's a strange creature that's cemented themselves as a companion to figure out...

    .○☆○●◇●○☆○.

    In which Loop gets sent to the beginning of the journey instead of the loops! They get to enjoy a new and slightly monsterous form as a bonus! Too bad Odile is the first person they find...

    Summary

    Going through the report has his brain gears steaming. It's a lot. Logs of vessel depth, design and composition (iron mostly, with the other metal trappings of a human design with electrical cables), radiation output and source (x-ray and a buttload of it!), readings and scans of the biomass enveloping the vessel (a tree, of all things). More blood readings because the thing was utterly flooded with the stuff (same composition as the sample he coughed out, lovely to know and think about), and the final logs of the containment and quarantining of the vessel inside the Blip-A.

    The team was coming back home to Erid, and in double time. Because Grace gets to the important part of the report. Perhaps the single most important one since he arrived on Erid.

    They found another human inside the vessel.

    Ever wondered what would happen if Simon brought along The Horrors™ with him into the PHMverse? Well, wonder no more! (It gets defeated by the power of friendship and altruistic science, is what happens. Please set your expectations to comical absurdism and have a good ride!)

    Summary

    "The Animus Problem in literature is defined as giving a Character nigh-infinite power, and then have that character seldom use it at full potential. While it can be covered up and made sense of, it will never prevent the readers from that nagging feeling of 'what if?'"

    ---

    Siffrin is told that he has no way out of the loops.

    He does not take kindly to that proposition.

    Finally deciding to work with his party, he develops a new approach to escape- constant experimentation with the nature of wishcraft and the loops itself, in order to cheat the universe and escape through loopholes and technicalities.

    Sure, he's being petty, but the universe has tortured them WELL enough.

    Now, it's HIS turn.

    Summary

    “Hello?” I sing out. It comes almost naturally, scarily naturally.

    The man's head whips over toward me, and I feel like I’m going to throw up. I can see his face. His eyes and mouth are closed, and the features are still blurry, but that doesn't really matter.

    That's…

    Me.

    Summary

    “Don’t let the blood get into your ship, okay?”

    That made Grace pause. “What?!”

    “If I die, you have to get my body out of here,” the man pleaded, but Grace had to go. His oxygen was out. The guy would be dead in six minutes. “You have to get me out, even if I’m dead. Hey!”

    “Just hold on!” Grace propelled himself through zero gravity, away from the radio.

    “Don’t leave me here-!” The roar echoed through the ship halls.

    When Ryland Grace complained about being a little bored, maybe a little lonely, he thought a nostalgic trip around Erid would fix him right up. The last thing he expected was to find deadly space bacteria in deep space and a human. Alive.
