Summary
"Come on Carl, just one thing! Lokken just got her future memories! Why can't I just know one little thing." Ryland was not above whining to get what he wanted. Everyone kept acting weird once they got the time travel memories! The only explanation was that it had to do with the Hail Mary. He wanted to know why.
"You know the project is going to succeed. Is that not enough." Carl, the traitor, raised an eyebrow like he wasn't affected by Ryland's pleas.
"Ok but what do they find? What are the astronauts going to find up there that we can't replicate?" Ryland asked for the umpteenth time. They were all so tight lipped about it! If they already had the answer why don't they just implement it now, why wait almost thirty years?
Carl just laughed, again, like he always did. "You know, you'd already know that if you remembered it," he teased.
Ryland huffed. Fine then! "When I get my own time-travel memories I wont tell you everything I know, see how you like it!"
Weirdly - It was never anything normal with these people! - Carl just smiled, but it didn't reach his eyes. "I can't wait."

The Petrova Task Force travel back in time one after the other. They forgot to invite Ryland.

Summary
Colt's vision whited out and he gasped. His brain was melting, ever nerve in his body on fire. If felt like drowning.
- There you are -
The ghost Drift burned.
"Colt!"
Jody. She was watching him, looked like she was about to step out of her suit to get to him. He could taste copper on his tongue, did he bite it? It didn't matter. The Kaiju, they were there for him!
"We've got to-"
They were thrown off their feet by the battering ram horn of Iron-bore.
They slammed into the sea floor and water surged over the displays. Before they could get up a transluscent, clawed paw forced them back down.
Six glowing eyes and the face of a fox bore down on them from above.
Astrum Deus
It began to glow red. The fins on its neck flared out and its eyes never left Colt's.
"Neural Handshake initiated."

Summary
The Solitary Lion and the Kremnoan Detachment, a group of wandering boys who clung to each other like family. Blessed by Titans and an awareness of fate, the group of seven travel Amphoreous chasing the shadows of Kremnos' Tyranny. They were going to kill the Tyrant King of Kremnos, Eurypon and save their people.
But- Standing beside The Prisoner of Flames in the ruins of the Hero's Baths, Mydei's claws dug into his own arm. The bloated rot of innocents massacred in cold blood assaulted his senses, while he could only watch the titan beside him shake in grief and rage. The speckled light that shone through the crumbling rooftop did nothing to hide the russet stains that crept up the tiles of the once luxurious baths.
Okhema stood silent, a testament to a ruin that none of them ever thought possible. This wasn't supposed to happen, Khaslana assured them that the Okheman's would be fine, that they always were before the Detachment arrived, completing the Flame Chasers so-
What happened here?

Summary
There are two men standing at his feet.
One of them is holding the rail of.. his hospital bed— he's in the oh— the other one has his hands in the pockets of a leather jacket that is.. completely dry? It's raining, there's water running down the window to the left that he can vaguely squint at.
They must have been in here a while, staring-watching him.
They look at each other-
They look 'like' each other.
They look like—
And Court goes under.
(Courtland Gentry, starts hallucinating two men who look exactly the same and tell him the worlds going to end in twenty years. To bad for the world, because Courts life already ended about twenty minutes before they showed up.)

Bookmarker's Notes
Court is subject to something truly horrific
Colt and Ryland near constantly in his head.
God have mercy on this man because fate sure doesn't

Summary
"No. It’s not possible, she refuses to believe it. Eva Stratt is not the kind of person who has ever had friends; she has had classmates, colleagues, acquaintances, and even occasional two-week lovers. But she has never had friends.
Not until Grace.
And it simply cannot be possible that less than a week after she has committed the worst sin of her life—betrayed the closest thing she’s ever had to a real friend—that she can somehow just open a door and find out that she’s no longer alone. It wouldn’t be fair. It wouldn’t make sense."
Or, Eva Stratt sends her only friend into space, and instead of going to prison, finds out there are more people in her corner than she realized.
(A series of oneshots about the years after the Hail Mary launch, following Eva Stratt and the people that help her carry the weight of the world on her shoulders. Companion piece to Project Mercy. Chapter 8: Dr. Pranee Lamai)

Summary
Dr. James “Rocky” Rockwell fell ill and suddenly regained hundreds of years worth of memories of his previous Eridian life.
Dr. Ryland Grace got into an accident that caused him to remember years of being in space and living on a planet that was not his.
Now, both middle school teachers are burdened with the complete knowledge of their old lives, profoundly yearning for a person who they thought they had lost forever.
Too bad they’re too busy being at each other’s throats to realize that they'd each found what they thought they've lost.
Rocky and Grace are reincarnated and get their memories back, but they do not recognize each other (Rocky only remembers how Grace sounds through Eridian ears; Grace doesn’t know Rocky’s back as a human), then one incident causes them to constantly want to throw hands at each other LMAO
