His Dark Materials AU
It was Annalise who noticed their small visitor first.
“Tony,” the spider daemon said softly, skittering up the collar of his dress shirt, two of her eight legs resting delicately against his cheek, “Don’t startle them, but I believe we have a guest. Look, by the coffee table.”

Summary
Snow had rambled halfway through the brief before he realized that John wasn't paying him any attention: as he trailed off, Kara's gaze jumped from Snow to John, then to the inoffensive, quiet-looking middle-aged man who had followed Snow into the briefing room only to sit in a corner without a word.
"Something on your mind, Agent?" Snow asked irritably.
"Sorry, Mark," John drawled. "It's just that I've never seen a cybrid before."

Summary
John Reese, sapiens, died the First Death in Ordos. It had been John Reese, canis, who had the speed and strength to limp out of the facility before the missile had hit; John Reese, canis, who had the instinct and stubborn will to go into hiding, to find a black market doctor to get fixed up, to organise a ticket back to New York, out of some blind animal need to go home.

Summary
He hopped in the driver’s seat and subtly took a breath, grabbing the wheel tightly, the leather of his wet gloves squeaking. He could hear a buzzing in his ears, a growing drone overtaking the sound of the rain hitting the roof. He stared at the writhing lump over in the mud.
He’d touched him. He’d HURT him. Ambushed him. Threatened him. Soiled him. Driver should’ve been there, should’ve cut him off before he’d have had the chance to slam into him. Driver should’ve taken the attacker’s knife out from his pocket and used it on him, right in the throat to quell his screams, all without 306 ever knowing--
“Thanks again,” his neighbor said, breaking the silence. He fiddled with the folds of his balled up, inside out raincoat sitting in his lap. “For… well, all of these things. That you’re doing. And have done. Heh.”
Driver looked over at 306. He looked pathetic, absolutely soaked in rain and covered with dirt and blood, smile weak and apologetic. He was beautiful.
“It’s no problem,” Driver said, smiling again.

Summary
Grace had no regrets. He had found his place and had saved everyone back on Earth. The Eridians wanted him here and they were so open and kind.But even so. He felt one little niggle. One little regret amongst the contentment.
I… Want to see my brothers one last time.
And with that thought, the music swelled to a crescendo. The light washed over him and he knew no more.
OR
The universe decides that Ryland Grace is not done, and that shifting him back in time five years before he was launched into space was the best way to fulfill his wish.
