Summary
I live to see another day (and another fic with multiple chapters I begun). I'm kinda obsessed now, soz, I'm not letting them go. Trying to write a better fic than last time too, aiming for a bit of a slower burn (though it's faster paced? Maybe? Who knows?).
Oh, and I don't actually know how long this is going to be, so the chapter count might change as I write.₊˚⊹₊˚⊹₊˚⊹₊˚⊹₊˚⊹₊˚⊹₊˚⊹₊˚⊹₊˚⊹₊˚⊹₊˚⊹₊˚⊹₊˚⊹₊˚⊹₊˚⊹₊˚⊹₊˚⊹₊˚⊹₊˚⊹
Nothing better than being alone with your best friend in the radius of light years. What could go wrong? Well, for once, you can run out of real food and rely on coma slurry, and you can't even go back to coma because then your short friend will die of boredom. So what's left to do? How well can you know someone before you get compromised? Don't ask Grace.

Summary
Grace finds himself aboard the Hail Mary with no memory of who he is or how he got there. Good thing he’s not alone! Jacob "Rocky" Ortega, the lead engineer on the mission, is there to make sure everything runs smoothly.
But things aren't quite as they seem - if they're just coworkers, why does Grace's heart beat faster whenever they lock eyes? And how come each fractured piece he recovers of his life from before leaves him with more questions than answers about the true nature of their relationship? For someone who doesn't like to lie, Rocky is awfully good at keeping secrets.

Summary
Welcome aboard, passenger number three.
Ryland Grace now must face his biggest challenge yet: parenthood. It's going to be a long four years to Erid, and he and Rocky are going to have to team up and get creative in raising this tiny human together within the walls of the Hail Mary. Grace is going to have to sort through his own issues-- including painful memories and tricky feelings about his alien best friend-- all while being at the mercy of parenthood, deep space, and their limited supplies.
OR: Grace and Rocky have to figure out how to keep a human baby and themselves alive for four years until Erid. They also happen to be falling stupidly in love the whole time without realizing it.
For more context, please read parts 1 and 2 of this series! Updates every Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday.

Summary
It had been a few weeks of being alone on the Hail Mary. Well, not technically ALONE— Only one other crew mate remained and his name was Jason “Rocky” Rockwell, who was still in his coma. Ryland Grace had gained most of his memories back, including the memories of who his fellow crew mates were. When Rocky finally woke, Grace realized that being alone would’ve been his worst nightmare without this guy.

Summary
Ryland returning was a miracle, and he would hold onto it for dear life.
He had been working to bring a better world to all of them, to Colt and Jody's twins, to his former students, to the children he hadn't even met. Court would make sure that it wouldn't all go to waste, that he'd get to see that world too.
~*~
Grace returns to earth with the solution to the Astrophage crisis. The alien that he brought home with him however, was entirely unexpected. Especially to the US Government.

“What? You’re not wanting to actually do this soap opera appearance, are you?” Rocky asked.
Grace’s ears pulsed with blood flow and he gave a twitch of a shrug.
“I mean…kinda?” he said. “I love As Erid Turns.”
Rocky turned to Adrian.
“Well?”
“Well, what? I think he should do it,” Adrian said placidly.
“Adrian! Grace is not some—cheap floozy of an entertainer! He’s a respected interstellar scientist!”

OR: Dr. Ryland Grace, unlikely Eridian soap opera star.

Summary
James "Rocky" Rockwell has to leave his dream job at NASA due to an episode he would rather not speak about. He moves to San Fransisco to begin his new career, and stops at a little diner on the way to his new apartment. There, he sees someone incredibly familiar, though they have never met before.
Not in this lifetime, at least.Memories come flooding back to Rocky of an entirely different life he lived. The universe has given him the chance to reunite with the person he holds closest to his heart. And the one who is currently holding him up on the diner floor, telling someone that he needs an ambulance. Rocky grips the sleeve of his cardigan, calls Grace's name, and Grace holds onto him tighter.
Does he remember, too?

“Mr. Grace, do you have a girlfriend?” Aria called out, which resulted in a cascade of laughter and jeering. Grace, despite four years of practice, was blindsided by this blow and floundered to come up with a rejoinder.
“Uh,” He gurgled into the microphone, an idiot wearing three pairs of glasses, “No, I do not.”
Or: Middle School Science Teacher Ryland Grace accidentally falls in love.

Summary
It’s the year 3048, and Earth is overpopulated, under-resourced and suffocating to death under the compounded centuries of abuse.
Humanity knows it’s running out of time, long before they can advance enough to reverse the centuries of damage or really develop complete planetary terraformation.
So here starts plan A - asking their not-so-friendly neighbours for help, except, unfortunately, human diplomacy and Eridian diplomacy are totally incompatible.
No biggie (medium to little whoop), a minor change, and now the plan is - Diplomacy the shit out of some aliens using lab-grown and human-piloted Eridian bodies.
Enter Ryland Grace and Plan B - Fumbling unintentionally into seducing the Eridian Engineer who saved Erid and his head scientist husband.

Summary
"You'll be remembered as a hero."
Ryland Grace hates that sentence.
Heroes volunteer. Heroes aren't shoved onto spaceships and sent light-years from home.
After learning that taumoeba can consume xenonite, Ryland gives up his chance of ever seeing Earth again and turns the Hail Mary around to save Rocky.
Rocky is thrilled.
Ryland is not prepared for Rocky's constant hovering, concern over his eating habits, refusal to respect personal space, or the sudden revelation that Rocky and his mate Adrian have apparently been looking for a third.
Three years to Erid is a long time to spend trapped on a spaceship.
Especially when Rocky has decided that Ryland belongs with them.

Summary
Rocky and Grace are finally on Erid, but Rocky's marriage is, well, on the rocks, and that's putting it nicely.
This is a Rocky-and-Grace-fake-date-to-make-Adrian-jealous story no one was asking for that I promptly delivered.
Ryland Grace will try to save his best friend's marriage with the power of friendship (is it really just friendship?), fake dating, and emotional constipation. Let's see what Rocky's seemingly emotionally unavailable husband has to say about that.
Things will go terribly wrong — and terribly right. Expect bickering, bad driving, bizarre decisions, and an alarming amount of accidental domesticity.
TLDR: Three (very differently damaged) dumbasses try to figure out how they can fit in each other's lives without anyone combusting.

Summary
Space is terrifying. Mortality is even more terrifying.
or
Graceful considered themselves a level-headed sort. Well, they had– back then. Now, they didn't give a damn anymore. Far removed from social conventions or even rationality, they were obsessed with only one thing: extending the lifespan of the ephemeral, breathtaking being they had found along the dead of space. They were certain the other Eridians would understand.
Little did they know they would encounter strange anomalies along the way.

Maybe Stratt was right all along.
Maybe I am going to die in space.

But there isn’t anything I can do about it now.OR, as Grace and Rocky journey back to Erid, the consequences of Grace's dwindling food supply begin to show, and Rocky becomes desperate to save him.

Summary
Ryland Grace has been shunned, shamed, and left behind in the field of molecular biology. Three months after attempting to defend his thesis at the UNESCO conference as a collegiate student, he is left to work alone in a small and cramped laboratory that affords little more than the four walls it sits within. Distancing himself from friends, family, and colleagues, it all quickly changes when he rescues an actual God's-honest-truth alien and brings him home. With the government on the lookout for extraterrestrial beings and one sleeping on his couch who communicates in whistles and half-word screeches, can Ryland Grace figure out what's going on before it's too late?
