    Summary

    It's their third trip out since they found the taumoeba.

    The Hail Mary has been upgraded, and now runs with a crew of nine Eridians. Plus the human mascot, Grace.

    It might be his last trip out, but Grace is making the best of it. He's just in the way at that point. His eyesight is no longer needed for the ship to run smoothly, and he could be teaching instead. He's enjoyed the trip. He really has.

    But the last of the new beetles are off, headed to distant star systems. Grace was settled in at the viewport when they found an anomaly.

    That's an odd astrophage signature.

    Summary

    “You’re fucking dreaming about this shit,” Simon huffed out, putting a hand over his eyes as if it would hide the fact they’d already begun to prickle with unshed tears.

    Grace had never wished for a pair of arms so badly in his life, sucking in a sharp breath and holding it a beat so he didn’t accidentally let it out as a pained whimper. “And you’re just hallucinating me,” he said when he was finally able to do it around the frog in his throat. “I think it’s only fair if I get to return the favor by dreaming you.”

    “What a fucked up nightmare on your side. At least I don’t have to be alone in this stupid fucking place. What do you get out of it, huh? Other than a complex.”

    “Well, I got to meet you, didn’t I? I’d say that counts for something.”

    Grace can't stop dreaming about the man stuck inside the iron lung.
    What else is there to do but try his utmost to save him?
    By any means necessary

    Summary

    Touch-starved Ryland Grace was excited at the prospect of another human on Erid who could help with platonic touching every once in a while. Simon, however, refuses to touch Ryland, closes himself off from everyone around him, and keeps having sex dreams about Grace.

    What could possibly go wrong if they’re in a room together?

    OR

    Grace refused to be so pathetic as to get hard from a punch to the face (he very much did get hard from it)

    Summary

    An unconscious Grace is slowly dying when the Eridians find and rescue Simon. To make matters worse, the laptop with the only translation program is glitching out on Rocky and Adrian as they try to communicate to Simon that he is the only one that can save Grace now. It gets lost in translation that an organ transplant won’t kill Simon in the process— he agrees to do it anyway.

    …and then Simon wakes up.

    Summary

    Grace wakes up on a strange ship to gunfire, Adrian protecting him, and no clue was "C.O.I." means.

    Simon is in the middle of losing his mind when space folds and a musical rock is suddenly taking up some of the SM-13's limited space.

    Excerpt:
    Grace takes a deep breath and tells the Hail Mary, "Scan for any signs of Eridian life, traces of xenonite, or radio signals. Do not report traces of Adrian or this radio signal."

    "Scanning for Eridian life. Inconclusive." Grace clenches his jaw, staring at the microphone like he'll hear what he wants if he doesn't blink. "Scanning for traces of xenonite. Inconclusive." Next to him, Adrian shifts, a low-tone humming emanating from them in an attempt to soothe Grace and themself. "Scanning for radio signals. One active signal found."

    Relief floods through Grace, his breath rushing from him and his legs almost buckling. "Can you determine the source? Where is it?" he asks.

    "The signal originates from below the surface of this moon's ocean."

    "The signal is coming from within the ocean?"

    "Yes, Dr. Grace."

    "But that's impossible. We lost the SM-13's signal days ago," Ava says.
