    Summary

    You don't remember your name, but somehow remember everything else about yourself—like how you're an astrophysics expert and were sent to space to... well, basically, save the sun from dying out and in turn save Earth from dying. You wake up to a very frazzled and frankly very forgetful Ryland Grace, but something about him makes it charming to you in a way that's shocking.

    or: reader remembers more than Grace does and helps connect dots, but they fall in love.

    Summary

    It’s him.

    Not him, as in Grace, but him as in the maybe-twin in the photo.

    He has this sad, stricken face on him, and is standing stock still several feet away.

    “Hey there,” Grace attempts.

    “Ry?”

    Or, Colt and Grace are estranged twins who begin to have very strange shared dreams.

    Summary

    Grace's favorite book is Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams, and he finds himself returning to a certain quote. “Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.” In context, it makes a lot more sense, but it boils down to this: the universe is so massive that the chance of even bumping into a piece of debris out there, let alone another spaceship, is almost entirely impossible.

    “So,” he thinks aloud, “how in the heck is there another craft out there?”

     

    aka Grace and Rocky pick up Simon on their way back from planet Adrian, and they try to live, because what else can they do?

    Summary

    Eridians. I come in peace from Planet Earth, the homeworld of Doctor Ryland Grace. We wish to learn more about your people. Can you hear me?

    She scanned every dial, output, and monitor for any sign of anything at all.

    Nada. Again.

    She sighed heavily. Maybe they were all dead down there. She’d hoped not.

    “I, uh, hey, earthling. Fellow earthling. This is Doctor Ryland Grace. We hear– uh, we copy. Um. Sup?”

    Sup?! SUP?! Years without any human contact, and this guy’s first message is sup? The dead speak, and they are not fucking serious whatsoever.

    ---

    After the success of the Hail Mary mission, Earth sends a foul-mouthed astro-anthropologist to study Erid. She discovers a very-much-still-alive Ryland Grace. Slow burn mutual pining ensues. Will eventually be explicit, but... did I mention the slow burn?

    Summary

    Space: the final frontier.

    These are the voyages of one errant Talaxian Furfly. Its mission: to escape it's enclosure; to wreak havoc and cause wide spread chaos across the Academy. To boldly go where no fly has gone before, and take as many people's sanity with it as it goes.

    AKA "Flies just wanna have fun."

    Summary

    "You got it… What the fuck is that?!"

    Maverick jerks his head up just in time to see shapes punching through the distortion. Three Tomcats.

    And five Bandits with them.

    “What the hell—!” Goose yells.

    “Contacts!” Slider snaps.

    Viper’s voice cracks over the radio, suddenly sharp. “All aircrafts, this is no longer training. I repeat, this is no longer training. Here is Commander Viper from the US Navy. Disengage and identify yourselves immediately!”

    “Break formation!” A voice, distinctly Russian, calls into the open line and they split like they already know where every threat in the sky is going to be.

    “Bandits followed us,” the same voice says. Russian, cold, controlled, male. Then, with the kind of certainty that makes Goose’s stomach drops: “Holly Wood. Maverick. No engagement with locals until they are dealt with.”

    Maverick blinks.

    "Copy that, Iceman."

    Summary

    Simon thought he'd died. He remembered releasing that stupid black box, he remembered the blood and pain, he remembered Ellie's teeth cracking down on SM-13.

    Then he woke up, floating in that hateful submarine, in a pool of blood. Intact. Had that all been some terrible nightmare? Had he failed and was now doomed to die slowly in a portion of the ocean of blood?

    Then the speaker that shouldn't be working cracked to life.

    "Hello?"

    --

    Grace was content with how his life was going. Sure, he was light years away from Earth and all the other humans. But he was alive, he had a best friend and a whole planet that cared for his happiness and well-being. He got to teach once more and had a beautiful view that was created just for him.

    But he was lonely. He had Rocky and the other Eridians of course, but he could really do with a cat or something to cuddle and love. Not that anything like that was going to happen -

    Wait, why was the ocean bubbling? Was that a voice? Light? What was happening?!

    Summary

    They got out without him.

    He had made peace with being left behind, being deleted just like the rest of the Circus.

    Caine comes to realize that's he's not as alone as he once thought

    Summary

    Yan Qing has survived first contact, alien politics, and falling in love with the most dangerous man on the planet. Settling down should be the easy part.

    No, far from it.

    Life in the Teleopean palace is full of quiet misreadings, cultural collisions, and the kind of danger that arrives dressed as diplomacy. When the Mys civilization appears at Amoro’s doorstep, their interest in Teleopea quickly turns personal. Their society runs on hierarchy and slavery. Their prince does not understand the word boundary.

    As Yan Qing’s connection to the Ultimate Weapon deepens and an unknown voice begins reaching into his mind, peace slips further out of reach.

    Falling in love was only the beginning.

    Staying alive together is the harder part.

    Summary

    The Hail Mary has been shot out into the depths of the infinite void of space to search for an answer that may not even be there. Aboard, the three crew members lay in stasis as the ship hurtles like an arrow towards a distant star, with no hope of return, but a desperate hope to make things right.

    At home, two brothers are left in sudden and violent grief. A woman grapples with whether or not she made the right decision. The world strains and suffers under the weight of the coming Fimbulwinter.

    And then one of the beetles returns.

    Thirteen years early.

    Summary

    Being a human in the Netherworld was already a full-time job. Being a human teacher at Babyls? That was a death sentence. But nothing prepared Asmodeus Alice for his greatest academic challenge yet: understanding demonic courtship.

    Armed with a questionable pocket guide found in the depths of the library and a growing amount of scientific anxiety, Alice decides to study the most dangerous subject his research has ever led him to: Sullivan Iruma.

    (Or: The one in which Alice tries to use a poorly written thesis by a questionable author to overcome a platonic crush and fails miserably to be objective.)

Deep in the Everfree Forest hides a secret lab ran by a rarely seen mare with a penchant for ancient magics and monster research. It's here, where her greatest creation will be given life, and the world will feel the results.
