    Summary

    Roughly 400 human years ago, Erid experienced what might be called a "calm before the storm" defined by markedly better sleep. The astrophage crisis put figuring out what caused that better sleep on the backburner... at least until a certain earthian spaceship arrived in the Tau Ceti solar system.

    Summary

    whumptober 2026 day 18: suicide attempt

    The box is nondescript, identical to all the other storage boxes except for the blunt ‘Life-Ending Measures’ label printed across the top. Inside are three smaller boxes, each with names engraved into the metal.

    ИЛЮХИНА — Ilyukhina.

    姚 — Yáo.

    The last one catches Grace off-guard. He’s expecting it to belong to DuBois, but DuBois’ chosen method had been nitrogen poisoning, and all the nitrogen had been stored with the rest of the chemical resources in the lab. Grace’s access to it had been the only reason he was able to wipe out both Taumoeba leaks in time.

    DuBois wouldn’t have needed anything else; no final lethal dose like Ilyukhina or bullets like Yáo.

    But there are three boxes here. And on the third, etched in neat letters, is Grace.

    or; stratt leaves grace a present :P

    Summary

    When Rocky first found an alien life form near Tau Ceti, he never expected to see them again after a solution was found, so he named them accurately for what he knew about them: Dumbass

    This brings up multiple issues when the two arrive at Erid and the elders do not approve of the name for the planet's savior

    Summary

    When Ryland goes to sleep at night, he sees Eva.

    They don’t talk anymore. None of them talk to him anymore. Dimitri and Lokken were kind enough to keep Eva from knocking him out and sending him to space, but Ryland remembers the look they threw at him as they left. Disappointment. Resignation. Hopelessness.

    Turns out he really was the only one who didn’t know that he was Plan 3.

    OR: Sometimes the guy tied to the train tracks unties himself.
