    Summary

    “Grace!” Rocky says. “Look!”

    I look. Then I gasp.

    “Is Adrian!” Rocky says.

    (or, what happens once Ryland Grace becomes the sole human inhabitant of Erid.)

    Summary

    His arm twists painfully behind him as he’s dragged along towards the large box, which now sits open before him. He recognizes distantly that it’s made of the soundproofing material Eridians use to make private rooms. An Eridian wouldn’t be able to see the inside.

    He realizes it's just the right size for him.

    ---

    The Eridians have done their best to treat Ryland Grace well since he saved their planet. At least, most of them. A few years after his arrival, he is abducted by a group more interested in his biology than his wellbeing. Rocky and the others scramble to find him, before it's too late.

    Summary

    "What if I help you?" Grace blurts out desperately, sweating even in the coolness of his house as his words finally manage to stop Adrian from storming out.

    "What?" Adrian says after a tense moment.

    "I can prove it to everyone," Grace says, his heart in his throat. "I'll - I'll make you and Rocky the most celebrated couple on Erid. I promise."

    "Stupid human," Adrian hisses. "You would give up your chance for him just like that?"

    "Yes," Grace says hoarsely.

    "Anything for him."

    ***

    Adrian does not like Grace.

    Which sucks, really, since Grace loves Adrian's husband and all.

    Summary

    Rocky lived his happily ever after with Grace and Adrian. Until he died. And then woke up a week before the Blip A was meant to launch. He makes a few last minute changes.

    Eva Stratt is not having a good day. It was hard enough dealing with the aliens trying to eat her sun. Now she has to deal with the other aliens that know much more about her and Earth than she's comfortable with. And they also claim to have the answer to the Astrophage problem, provided she's willing to hand Ryland Grace to them.

    Grace wishes he could stop getting 'promoted' with no option to say no. At least his new job has better hours, if you could ignore the whole being stuck in space on an alien vessel thing.

    Summary

    Grace has been on Erid for about six months. Things have quieted down. Grace isn’t as sick anymore. He’s eating normally, mostly healed, and not actively dying. Rocky doesn’t need to spend every waking moment with him. Rocky can actually resume living a normal life. Grace doesn’t need Rocky, anymore.

    Grace has severely underestimated how much he needs Rocky.

    Or: What happens when a very codependent Grace tries to separate himself from his best friend, Rocky? Who, by chance, also happens to be very codependent?

    Oh, right. And he’s in love with Rocky. And he doesn’t know it yet.

    Summary

    Although we are intimate, there is a space between us;
    This space, here, enclosed by a sweep of the hand, that
    Encompasses us both, but keeps us apart. It is your space,
    To walk your past, present and future, as an explorer searches
    The landscape for sustenance and riches, and sometimes reason.
    Here, in your space, I am lover, father, mother, sister, brother,

    Excerpt From: Edward Clapham "Another Place"

    Or

    In the vastness of the universe, there will always remain some handful of phenomena incomprehensible, inconceivable, and ineffable to the sapient mind. Science, timelines, technology, and the collective prayer of billions of people desperate for salvation—it means nothing in the face of a Cosmic Force of Reality. Separately, that is.

    The unlikely collision course of it all is its own kind of Big Bang, except it does not originate a universe in the way we understand it.

    Or

    The birth, creation, hopes, fears, and deaths of Mary. The uncelebrated third Savior of the universe.

    Summary

    Ryland Grace was only human, but his spirit would not be subdued not even for death itself. Thanks to Rocky, Erid would soon learn the strength of the seemingly frail humans who sent a teacher into space. The duality of man would echo through their thrum haunting even the oldest Eridian. Grace was something new, something unknown, and something potentially dangerous. And Erid would never let him go. They would protect. They would claim. They would meet an indomitable human spirit.

    Inspired by the idea of the indomitable human spirit

    Summary

    When Rocky returns to planet Erid after 60 odd years, Adrian expects a beautiful reunion with their long lost partner and a happily ever after under a brightening star. Instead, they get an extremely codependent and traumatized mate, and a malnourished, creepy, leaky space blob, who are attached at the hip. Could Adrian learn to love this alien creature, or will it tear their marriage apart?

    Summary

    “Grace. What are you testing, question?”

    Rocky. I can’t put this all on the guy right now. He should be happy. We are going to Erid. We are going to save his planet.

    “CBC. A complete blood count.” I answer, hoping he doesn’t ask me why.

    “Purpose, question?”

    Rocky, please. I’m trying to spare you right now.

     

     

    Basically, Grace gets exposed to a dangerous amount of radiation during an EVA and doesn't want to tell Rocky bc of what happened to Rocky's crew <3

     

    THIS IS A REWORKED VERSION OF "TEMPEST" - after some comments, I wanted to keep the soul of the story, but make it more scientifically plausible. While there are still probably some inaccuracies, I still hope this isn't as messy as before.

    Summary

    Stranded at 40 Eridani with his best friend — who has too many legs and absolutely no concept of minding his own business — Grace has made peace with life on Erid. Then Rocky runs the numbers. The numbers are bad. Grace is declining, slowly but certainly, despite Rocky's best efforts.

    Rocky's solution is exactly what you'd expect: massive, meticulous, and completely non-negotiable. A new ship. A diplomatic delegation. Six years of travel with the only family he has left — which, Grace privately admits, is the first thing that's made going home feel possible. And one small additional item Rocky mentions almost as an afterthought: the thrum has determined that Grace requires a mate, and they have assigned it diplomatic priority.

    Grace has a lot of feelings about this. Rocky is unmoved.

    Summary

    Simon just kept trying to breathe, his chest heaving up and down. His bleeding arm, still clenched and curled into himself, stung against sweat.

    The blood on the ground divided the space between them, one hesitant and one wholly unwilling to cross it. Dr. Grace just kept looking at Simon with those wide, blue eyes.

    “Hey…seriously, what is your name?”

    ________________

    Simon awakens in an unfamiliar place, and he can barely breathe.

    Summary

    "Ryland Grace was not a brave man.

    Curious? Yes.

    Cocky? Definitely.

    Kind? Sure.

    But he was not brave.

    Yet when Mary hailed a message to him and Rocky whilst they were in the “Don’t go crazy” VR room; “Blip E on radar, Dr. Grace.” Of course he had to be brave and check it out. As he and Rocky raced towards the cockpit, they looked towards the camera, and the sight caught all the words Grace wanted to say in his throat.

    A submarine. A human-looking submarine."

    Humanity's ability to adapt can only truly be tested when pushed to the extreme. That was what started this. The purpose behind all this seemingly useless cruelty. But an experiment must eventually reach its end. A criminal must inevitably pay for his crimes.
    The Sm-13 has been left to be found by humanity's final Hail Mary.
    Its captain will now behold the truth.

    Or

    What if Iron Lung and Project Hail Mary happening in the same universe made sense?

    Summary

    Grace and Rocky have fallen into a routine during their trip to Erid, which means of course something must go wrong. This particular something is the SM-13, a ship not meant for space holding a human heartbeat within. Once they get its passenger stable, they find out he doesn't speak either of their languages, and he's one wrong move from stabbing Grace at any given time.

    Simon also thinks he's probably dead, so there's that. No one is having a great time.

    Summary

    Rocky and Ryland happen upon a bloody submarine in space. When Rocky says he detects another heartbeat, he and Ryland find a man covered in blood inside.

    Things get interesting when the man calls Ryland an angel and doesn't seem keen on letting the nickname go.

    Or, 5 times Simon called Ryland by the wrong name and the one time he got it right
