Summary
Dr. Ryland Grace did not believe in fate or predestination but, perhaps, he should’ve kept a healthy dose of anti-skepticism in his heart, all things considered. Perhaps, if he had, his life might’ve gone an entirely different direction.
[...]
Grace finally noticed something was wrong when the lack of any noise snapped him out of his reverie. He finally looked away from his laptop, eyes faintly burning, and confusedly observed the coffee shop. Everyone, baristas included, were staring at the television, faces pale and drawn, utterly silent and motionless.
And on that sunny day Dr. Ryland Grace found refuge in a coffee shop to escape the heat, all but one week on the dot past his self-ejection from the world of academia via carbon-based insults, jobless and with all doors pointedly closed in his face, the appearance of the very first Kaiju was shaking the world at large out of all previously known logic and scientific rationale.
It wouldn’t be the last.
—————————————
Circumstances may be different, but a deep bond of friendship and love might save the day, nonetheless.

Summary
“Always so leaky,” I tease him, good-naturedly, and he lets out a wet chuckle. His smile remains after it; I could spend my entire life cataloguing the minuscule differences in all of his smiles, and what those differences mean, and it wouldn’t be long enough to discover all of them.
I used to find the expression unsettling, the way he bared his teeth at me— The knowledge that I used to do such a thing sits in the back of my mind like an ancient relic. I cannot understand why I ever felt that way. I just know I did.
“It looks great, buddy,” he says, his voice a soft, wavering thing. Much like in my imagination once more, he bends down on his knees. “Come here.”
I don’t need a second invitation.
I throw myself in his arms with as much enthusiasm as I dare to use without risking hurting him. I’m fully aware of how much heavier and stronger than him I am. How easy it would be, for me, to shred through his soft, defenseless body as if he is no more than a feeble little prey.
I do not. I never will. I’m always careful, and always will be. I already hurt him once, I can see the sign of it on his arm, like a brand, and one time is already more than I am willing to accept.

Summary
There are men turning up dead in the woods, and Chief of Police Charlie Swan has a job to do—figure out what, or who, left the poor bastards torn up as they are. Chief of Police Charlie Swan is too old for this mess. Too old and too sick of this shit to pretend Forks is just a sleepy old rural town anymore. Between the gruesome corpses and the quiet, unsettling doctor Cullen who shows up like a statue in pressed slacks, lying through his teeth, Charlie’s got more questions than answers—and no one seems too keen on giving him either.
Charlie’s trying not to notice how his breath catches when the doc gets too close. He’s also trying not to notice how the bodies keep piling up, unsolved. Neither effort is going particularly well.
And if one more person tells him it was a bear, he’s going to shoot something. Probably not a bear.

Summary
TENSILE TOLERANCE (noun) ˈten-ˌsī(-ə)l ˈtäl-rən(t)s
1: the maximum acceptable stress that a material can withstand before structural failure or permanent deformationThe earth ship Hail Mary has at long last reached Eridian orbit, and the planet rallies to bring returning hero, Rocky, and his alien companion Dr. Ryland Grace, safely home to the planet's surface. But, this momentous occasion, which should be marked by great celebration, has turned urgent and grim as Grace's life hangs precariously in the balance and Rocky finds himself unable to readjust to his homeworld, haunted by the prospect that saving the stars does not guarantee a life of peace and safety with the man he loves.

Summary
"Just to be absolutely clear," Grace says, bowling over whatever smug bullshit was about to come out of Ortiz's mouth, "I'm not going to be the other woman, and I'm not looking to sleep my way to tenure."
He's quite possibly still too drunk for this. Or maybe he's not drunk enough.
"I'm a grown man with a doctorate and I can make my own decisions," he tells Ortiz. "So, if you think I'm even considering it because I'm some—some sugar baby or—or you're looking for an easy lay because you're conveniently in another country, then you can take your napkin and room number shove them right up your ass."
It's not the most persuasive as far as warnings go. Grace stutters his way through it and he's moving his hands too much, but Ortiz at the very least doesn't try to interrupt him this time. He is smirking, however, the lift of it caught in the rim of his glass he takes a sip of his drink, eyes never leaving Grace's.
"Is that what you've been thinking about all these hours?" Ortiz asks him, conversational, like they're discussing bike lanes and Copenhagen's public transit system. "My ass?"

I'm Ryland Grace - AMA by sly_as_an_alpaca

Summary
What the title says. About 11 years ago (from my perspective; relativity is weird) I was launched into space onboard the Hail Mary to figure out a solution to the Astrophage problem. Now I live on an alien planet I call Erid, in the 40-Eridani system. Yes, I’m actually Ryland Grace. Ask me anything.
Also, can someone please tell me if Eva Stratt is alive? And ideally send me a video of you punching her in the face? Guess that’s a long shot, but it can’t hurt to ask.
---
Grace and Rocky figure out how to connect to Earth's internet from Erid. They may not have thought this through.

Summary
"There is no point in any of this rumination. You are gone. You are nothing now but a muse, something that I can conjure upon command and listen. You are nothing more now than a lullaby, a prayer, a dissonant, augmented, ugly, beautiful melody."
Rocky and Grace part ways for their respective planets. It should feel like a victory. It doesn't.

Petulantly, Rocky says, “Grace sound stupid. Like child.”
“I’m just talking how you talk, buddy.”
“Yes. This is because I talk like child, to speak to stupid human.”
“Well, you don’t have to do that,” I say without thinking.
“♪♫♩as this♪ when, underst♪♪♫d ♪me, question?” Rocky says.

Summary
You are profoundly alone. You have been for a while. Suddenly, you aren't anymore, and you are struggling to be normal about it. Pooling strengths and weaknesses with the strange creature on its explosive-atmosphere ship might just be the only way to save both of your stars, but it might also lead to more than just strictly scientific discoveries, and neither of you are sure how to feel about that.
OR: The universe's most unlikely meet-cute.

Summary
“What are you talking about?” Grace's fingers played quick chords as he spoke. He didn’t even look as he did it, but it did not make them any less purposeful.
“Discussing possible reasons why Tau Ceti is not infected while other stars are,” Eva replied deftly. “I would invite you to join, but we were just finishing—”
“Oh, that’s easy.” His hand twisted a knob, and the notes came out sharper. “It is infected—Petrova Line and everything.”
In Grace's opinion, dreaming about time traveling is no excuse for getting out of practice with his Eridian. To the rest of the Petrova Taskforce, it seems a bit odd that their resident Astrophage expert has suddenly taken to carrying a keyboard around and playing it whenever he speaks. Eva Stratt resolves to figure out what is going on.

Summary
“Proof of concept,” ♫♬♯♩♩♫ says. “We’ve tested it thoroughly to ensure it fits the specified nutritional profile, and several members of our team have ingested small amounts of it to ensure there were no adverse effects.”
“You ate some of it?” I ask, rudely. I’m too irate to mind my language. Who do they think they are? That meat is for Grace. In a way, that meat is Grace.
“Yes,” ♫♬♯♩♩♫ says. They and the rest of the human life support thrum know better than to be offended by my occasionally strange behaviour. “Obviously we weren’t going to risk the life of Honoured Grace on a completely untested technology.”
That doesn’t mean much. There’s a lot of things that are safe for ingestion by Eridians that would outright kill a human.
Trust Grace, I remind myself. He’ll have thought of all this.
(OR: Grace's meburgers from the book epilogue. Let's talk about those!)
