   Summary

   Ryland doesn't know where he is, what he's doing, or why he's doing it. All he knows is that he's in a universe with no stars and that an organization called the COI found the Hail Mary spinning out into deep space. He knows that Rocky is injured somewhere, and he knows that the man that currently lays in a hospital bed in front of him should be dead as dirt but has miraculously survived.

   He knows he has been given an ultimatum. Find out what brought Simon back to life or never see his friend again.

   The task proves more complicated than he thought.

   Summary

   The longer Simon spends with Ryland Grace and Rocky, the more he realizes they're genuinely good people (or rock-spider-crab things)... and the more convinced he becomes that he doesn't belong with them in the slightest.

   (Or: A criminal, a science teacher, and a rock walk into a spaceship.

   This is a continuation of "The People We Meet at the End of the World", which you may need to read first for context.)

   Summary

   Grace turns his gaze back to the craft in front of him. Now that he takes a closer look, it is a craft, and a shoddily constructed one at that. Even from this far away, he can see patches of metal roughly welded together to create something just this side of airtight.
   At least it used to be. The thing looked like it had been hit by a bulldozer, and then backed over for good measure. There were holes punched into the metal big enough to stick his arm through, the glass on the front was cracked, one tap away from shattering completely, and the whole thing was covered in dents and scratches. He couldn’t even see any way for the thing to propel itself. He leaned in a bit closer to see around the back and … is that a propeller? Like on a-
   “..submarine?” He whispers, almost to himself, trying to process what’s in front of him. Maybe he needs that nap a bit more than he thought.

   Summary

   Grace and Rocky did it. They really did it. Earth and Erid is saved. All that's left is to go home. A nice safe journey, with no set backs at all.

   What was that.

   Summary

   When Ryland Grace finally adjusts into his new life on Erid, a very scared, very upset man is just the thing he needs to disrupt it.

   or

   When Simon is pulled out of the remains of the Iron Lung-- still very much alive and very much disoriented, he must grapple with the fact that everything he once knew to be true is a lie, and that the visions from a deity he doesn't know the name of become rampant. His eternal punishment rests in the form of a very clumsy, very obnoxious blonde man who can't seem to understand he's living in a fishbowl.

   or

   A BloodyMary fanfiction where I attempt to unveil the complicated lore of both Project Hail Mary and Iron Lung. This is the very first fanfiction I've ever posted on A03 and it's the first bit of writing I've made public in over 8 years, so apologies if it takes me a moment to regain my footing!
