    Summary

    Simon's been on Erid, physically, for 2 months.

    He's been conscious for only a week.

    He doesn't trust Grace or Rocky by any stretch of the word, not even sure he's convinced those are their real names.

    And yet, seeing the usually cheerful, compassionate, and unnervingly trusting scientist so afraid had felt like a cold dead weight in his stomach.

    or

    Some overzealous Eridians(its quite literally a cult) decide to take matters into their own hands regarding their saving grace. All while Simon is still recovering from the blood ocean.

    Summary

    „You know who you are,“ Carl says softly.
    The world fades to black.
    He bolts upright in his cot, gasping for air, the low hum of the Vat vibrating through the metal floorboards.
    Oh, fudge.

    or, the one where Ryland wakes up over and over on the day of the goodbye party on Stratt's Vat, after the launch of the Hail Mary. His friends die, or he dies, and his boss-friend repeatedly sentences him to death. He just wants it to stop.

    Summary

    Two days after their first contact—and more importantly, their first words—Grace sets up his thinking machine to speak.

    Rocky does not need the assistance of a machine for Grace’s language. It is ugly and harsh to listen to, but it’s relatively simple to learn. That, and, well—Rocky was alone for a very, very long time before he met Grace. He maybe hangs on to each word a little more than strictly necessary. Grace only needs to tell him each word once for Rocky to know it forever.

    Grace, though…

    Well, he’s lucky Rocky is patient. Let’s leave it at that.

    Summary

    No, please, don’t do it, I can’t do it, please.”

    Rocky knew exactly what was going on, and hated hated hated that it had to happen on what had supposed to have been a nice, calm, fun day for both Grace and the kids.


    Grace has a flashback. Luckily he has a wonderful family to help him through it.
