Summary
You’re alone, with your arms wrapped tight around a pillow at god knows what time in the night, and there are tears running down your face because you can’t seem to stop thinking about it, not even in your dreams.
And then clutching your covers you get an idea.
(In which Dirk has nightmares about Blackwing, goes to Todd for help, and is really, really, really in love.)

Summary
Gatsby contained infinite universes and Nick was enamoured with every glittering speck he could see, not to mention the ones he couldn't. Ironically, the iridescent source of Gatsby's infinite wonder was his boundless hope, his pursuit of Daisy that left Nick a wistful bystander, and when Gatsby stayed up all night to wait for her call, Nick stayed with him.

Summary
The ward is practically empty, but he can hear each noise outside in the empty corridor; nurses talking, murmuring, relatives, constant beeping of countless machines, some of which are his, which is kind of a weird thought. (He wishes for silence, total dead silence, but it's not going to happen any time soon.)

Summary
When I wake up, the phantom stench of burning flesh follows me out of the dreamland and stays for a few minutes. For that short, blessed period of time, I am at peace. I am warm and sated.
Of course, it fades eventually. Then the shivering starts all over again.
Or: Grace starves in more ways than one.

False Friends by IvyLee

Summary
In linguistics, a false friend is a word in a different language that sounds similar to a word in your own, but differs significantly in meaning. No word in any Eridian language could possibly be mistaken for English. But Erid absolutely has false friends.
In his right mind, Grace would easily identify the mistaken assumptions inhibiting his integration on Erid. They are:
1: A molecular biologist and a sapient rock can cobble together translation software that reflects the etymological nuance of an entire alien language.
2: Eridians are enough like humans to have an area 51 and look forward to using it.Unfortunately, Grace hasn’t been in his right mind in years.
Or: a ‘Return to Erid’ story where Grace struggles to touch down alone.
