Summary
“Gabbro!” the Hatchling cried. Gabbro turned at their name, flute lowered. The Hatchling dashed across the sand and grabbed the astronaut by the shoulders. “I’m stuck in a time loop with Chert. You have to do something.”
“Oh, good luck with that, bud.” They raised their flute.

Summary
You swim towards the surface that glimmers with speckles of light. The blue sky is there. You can see it. You will make this loop have a purpose. You will not give up this loop. You need to get out of the river. You need to fix your ship.
You need to get out of Timber Hearth.
Your head breaches through the surface.
You gasped for air.
"Hey, buddy, you find something good down there?" your best friend said. Hal crouched by the river, running their finger through the water to cause ripples. They offered you a small smile.

Summary
“What do you need, Nim?” you say.
“I don’t know, I don’t know,” they say, shaking their head hard enough that tears fling from their chin. “I need— I need more, Gabbro.”
You wrap your arms around their shaking frame, but it only lasts a moment before they squirm and push away from you. “No, no, that’s not it. I’m sorry, I don’t know, I’m trying to think of what…”
“That’s the problem,” you say softly, pulling back but keeping your hands on them. “Don’t try to think. Just feel, Nim. What do you need?”

Learning to Catch at the End of Everything by Fridurmus
Fandoms: Outer Wilds (Video Game)
18 Jul 2025
Tags
Summary
Sanidine is ready to get out into space, and nothing is going to stop them from hopping into their ship and becoming the new best there ever was. They'll solve the mysteries of the Nomai, find the truth behind their missing idol, and advance Hearthian exploration more than ever before, with the help of the translator that they built with Hal and a brand new ship Slate calls their finest work yet. Their launch day is going so well, until suddenly it isn't. A chance encounter with a new artifact in the museum sends them rocketing to Giant's Deep, seeking out Gabbro right away to talk about a shared experience.
It's the first of many shared experiences the pair have, as they come to realize their situation. Faced with the reality that the only person either of them can turn to is the other, they're soon forced to learn what it really means to catch someone when they've got nowhere else to fall, and to let themselves be caught in turn. And if they can do that, then maybe, just maybe, they can save the universe... or at least save each other.

Summary
Hal agreed it would be funny. If it really comes down to it, they can blame it on Hal. Of course, it wasn't Hal's idea in the first place, and Gneiss is known not to take any kind of excuse for tomfoolery and shenanigans, so actually, blaming Hal wouldn't do them any good at all. They probably will do it anyway.
(But what kind of astronaut has time to practice their instrument when they've only got 22 minutes at a time to explore the solar system, anyway?)
