    Summary

    As he stared down into the lumpy grey goop that was his evening rations, he contemplated whether it was really worth it.

    They’d come a very long way just for Grace to give up and die at the last hurdle, both physically and emotionally. The Tau Ceti system was a long, long way away now, and Grace had faced not one but two highly emotional suicide missions. Three, if you counted the time before he was given a military grade roofie and hucked into space without his memories.

     

    Rocky and Grace make it back to Erid! Huzzah!
    Now they have to navigate all of... that.

    Summary

    "What if I help you?" Grace blurts out desperately, sweating even in the coolness of his house as his words finally manage to stop Adrian from storming out.

    "What?" Adrian says after a tense moment.

    "I can prove it to everyone," Grace says, his heart in his throat. "I'll - I'll make you and Rocky the most celebrated couple on Erid. I promise."

    "Stupid human," Adrian hisses. "You would give up your chance for him just like that?"

    "Yes," Grace says hoarsely.

    "Anything for him."

    ***

    Adrian does not like Grace.

    Which sucks, really, since Grace loves Adrian's husband and all.

    Summary

    “Rocky,” I say. “Is this a … a fleshlight?”

    “No. Fleshlight is specific Earth product. This Rocky human relief aid prototype. Same function, different origin.”

    Well, asked and answered, I guess.

    Summary

    After nearly a seventh of my life so far spent completely alone, I needed contact. Anything. All of my own personal effects that I brought in order to stave away loneliness and sexual urges did nothing for me. I was left even lonelier. Watching video after video of human copulation did nothing to ease my desires — part of me envied these people, how they could effortlessly touch one another, bringing each other’s bodies pleasures unfamiliar to me.

    The only person I was with could not survive my touch. I had already touched it once, and it was permanently disfigured as a result. It’s [skin] marked with the perfect shape of my claw. I couldn’t stand it. Not any longer. Grace needed satisfaction, and so did I, and if it was mutually pleasurable, then maybe I could be absolved of the shame I felt about omitting a single feature of the toy I gave it.

    Summary

    A Rocky POV of Project Hail Mary, but add in a sprinkle of originally named astrophages, petrova lines, language barriers, trauma recovery, and extra, extra worldbuilding. Includes pre- and post-canon!

    La traduccion al espanol by MichiHolmes! Gracias!

    ***

    One day, his strumming was not answered.

    The silence that answered his one verse of song was horrible and grating. Incomplete. Empty. A sick, horrible fear built up inside him.

    (He was going to die out here. Alone.)

    ***

    "Iz huhg," Grace sniffled out, sucking back in moisture from his noze, too. There was moisture and water and everything all over the place. "Huhg meens grayt, grayt, grayt affekshun."

    "Oh," he said tentatively. Another hewmin thing! He shuffled closest to the wall Grace was huhging and leaned in. "Oh. Am I doing correctly, hmm?"

    "Yis," Grace sighed out, calming down. He still leaked, though.

    Oh, well. Leaky hewmins were his favorite, after all.
