Summary
The Blood Eel only knows pain and isolation in its world. Others have come searching for answers, only to learn in the end that death is the only one that matters. But then it meets Simon. As it unmakes him it catches a glimpse of something its never seen before, Happiness. It wants to learn about it, yet Simon doesn't know it. It goes to throw him away, but then he utters a prayer.
Hail Mary, full of Grace
The Blood Eel searches the cosmos and comes across The Hail Mary, occupied by Ryland Grace, and it decides this is what Simon was asking for. So it obliges.
What follows is the story of two lost souls coming together in a cosmic event, learning together to live, to love, to be happy. All while The Blood Eel looks on, insuring it continues to learn, one way or another.

Summary
When two people back out of the San Francisco season of Love Is Blind, there's only so much time to find interesting replacements. So they settle on just finding replacements. They can make them seem interesting in editing, right?
Ryland is there as a favor to Colt, who submitted Ryland as a favor to his crush Jody, who wanted to find a replacement for her friend Ava, who has somehow ended up as a producer for the latest season of Love is Blind.
Simon made the mistake of befriending Ava years ago and is regretting it.

Summary
There's 1 in 70,000 people on the planet who have the gene needed to survive the Hail Mary's expedition. In that limited pool, 1 in maybe 1000 had the necessary skills needed for the mission — more dire still, even less people were willing to volunteer for what is essentially a suicide mission.
When an explosion killed not only their science officers but also their engineers, Eva Stratt makes the tough decision to put 2 people on the spacecraft that no one was expecting to be even be candidates.
One is a middle-school science teacher.
One is a convicted eco terrorist.

Summary
“Let me be there,” he pleads. “For all of it. No more hiding. Let me take care of you.”
“It’s too much,” he says sadly. “I don’t even know what to do.”
“We’ll figure it out together.”
“It isn’t fair to you.”
“Was I fair to you when I was struggling?” He asks.
Grace doesn’t respond, knowing he has a point.
(In which Simon learns about Grace’s episodes, and figures out how to support him)
