Satellite's Gone Up to the Skies (Things Like That Drive Me Out of My Mind) by gojibstar
Fandoms: Project Hail Mary (2026), Project Hail Mary - Andy Weir
09 Aug 2026

Summary
I remind myself that Rocky can see right through my boxers, right through me. He can track every pulse, every micro-tremor, every erratic spike of adrenaline. He knows my biology better than I do at this point.
My stomach goes belly-up with the knowledge, a giddy thrill. It is equal parts exhilarating and humiliating.
Here’s the thing: I know him too. I can perceive him in a way that is just as foreign to him as his sensory array is to me, through sight. No Eridian could do that. Gosh.
With that train of thought, it’s almost impossible to think that we weren’t made for each other. This is what I mean by technicalities—no, we can’t touch. Yes, we are completely different species from completely different corners of the galaxy, born under entirely different suns and breathing different atmospheres. But all of human and Eridian biology seems like a very long, very complicated setup for this exact moment.

Summary
In a misguided attempt to quell Ryland Grace’s loneliness by wingmanning him across the galaxy and into the five arms of some theoretical Eridian babe, Rocky might accidentally kind of realize that he really doesn’t want that to happen at all. At least, not with just any nonspecific theoretical Eridian babe. More like one very specific extant Eridian babe.
aka: the “split or swallow” AU that no one asked for, ft. Eridian Sex Ed 301, 303, and 305H, taught by one Rocky to a single, starry-eyed human student.

reminders
• gradepaperstablets
• convince rocky not to pick twilight for movie night
• dust the shelves or rocky WILL start counting the individual dust particles on them
• biodome rain test soon!
• look for gastronomy research articlestell the biodome workers to tone the rain down a little. just a little. because they may or may not have struck the fear of god into you last night with the storm simulation they threw at you.
is it still platonic if you and your best friend cuddle while watching a romance movie and he scoffs at the couple on the screen and says they'll never have the bond you two have
never let rocky watch movies with love triangles because again. he'll just keep saying, "when in doubt, poly it out."

Summary
We bickered back and forth. Up until I said, "Sweet dreams, Rock."
You paused for a bit, then chittered curiously, "No understand word."
I had begun drifting off already, but that kept me awake for a bit longer. "Dreams? Hm…"
It only occurred to me then that I never told you just how much of a human's brain stayed active while they slept. The concept of memory consolidation and emotional processing during rest must be foreign to Eridians. I could've gone on a tangent about that alone. I could've told you about the parasympathetic nervous system and all the biological process that happen during REM sleep. I could've told you about the inner workings of my body, in a bid to get you to do the same.
But, with fatigue eating away at my cognitive functions and lowering my inhibitions, I bared my heart to you instead.
"It's like… another life that you live where crazy stuff happens, but it all makes sense." I muttered, raw and vulnerable. "Kinda like today."
I likened meeting you to a dream, and my only consolation is that I don't think you understood the significance of that.
Or: Grace struggles to put a name to his feelings for Rocky.

Summary
“Would it help––should I bring my dinner in too?” Grace jokes, smiling in preparation for the absolute symphony of disgusted whistles he knows Rocky will produce at the thought of them doing something as depraved as sharing a meal. “I’ve been saving this week’s half packet of ramen for just such an occasion––”
[YES YES YES!] Rocky’s translator app suddenly blares from the laptop on the floor between them. [YES, ACCEPT ACCEPT ACCEPT! GRACE RAMEN ♪♫♪♫ WITH ROCKY, AFFIRMATIVE! GRACE ROCKY EAT ♪♫♪♫ MEAL TOGETHER AFFIRMATIVE YES YES AFFIRMATIVE NOW.]
-----------------------------------------------------------
or, a fic to answer the questions: What if you fell in love for the first time in your 40s, and it just so happened to be with your alien best bud who has five legs, no face, and is already married? And then what if somehow you accidentally proposed to said alien best bud without knowing, because while you may be Earth's best and brightest, you also notoriously suck at close interpersonal relationships (and also you have permanent memory damage)? What then?

Summary
“Kilocalorie number today, question?” Rocky checked.
“Don’t.”
“Say number,” Rocky demanded.
“I don’t know, okay? Six hundred, eight?” Grace managed to drink some liquid and lied back down. “I know that I need about four thousand and before you ask, there is nothing you or me can do about it now. We can talk about something else or I can watch you sleep.”
“I watch you sleep.”
“You have not slept for the past day and a half, buddy. You need it more than I do,” Grace said and raised his sound limb, making a motion at Rocky with one of his fingers. “I’ll watch you sleep, so go sleep.”

Summary
“Good good, now use welding tool to join.” He moves Grace’s wrist to position the rod so it turns farther outward.
“Slow slow gentle,” he repeats. Grace is actually going to die.
He stretches his finger, tugging the wires connecting the mechanisms, and clicks the fingertips together to create a spark. Rocky chitters cheerfully behind him.
“Good good, Grace doing good.”
Grace’s face is burning. Rocky’s body heat seeps into him; he’s running hot all over, but especially in his face. Rocky doesn’t comment on it yet, hopefully ascribing Grace’s fever-like state to his own body being a smelting furnace.
He wets his dry lips again. “Thanks, bud, I think I’m getting the hang of it.”
Grace sucks at flirting. But when he comes across Ghost (1990) while looking for something to watch for their movie night, he has a brilliant idea: to recreate the pottery wheel scene with Rocky. He asks Rocky to teach him to make xenonite sculptures using Eridian welding tools. Naturally, things escalate from there.

Summary
Several years after choosing to live the rest of his life out with Rocky and Adrian, Ryland Grace's body is quietly failing under the brutal 2.12G gravity of Erid. Desperate to bridge the physical divide before Grace's time runs out, Rocky and Adrian misinterpret an old digital file of Avatar as a historical fact and secretly engineer life-like flesh and blood human "vessels" for themselves, but the sensory overload of piloting a human body changes everything Rocky understands about humans.
And how he sees Grace.

Summary
Grace is put on cleaning duty and gets a mysterious fourth bag of vodka for his troubles.
Rocky begrudgingly takes on the role of Designated Driver slash Space Blob Supervisor, and receives a different kind of gift in return.
“Grace. What are you doing?”
Grace's mouth, still smushed against my xenonite, curves upward: Contentment, happiness, satisfaction. Interesting, that it should be prone to smiling when made stupid by ethanol, but not so much when it gets stupid because of a lack of sleep.
“‘s called a kiss, buddy. I‘m givin’ you. A kiss. ‘cause you're my best friend annnnd I like you. And y’nno what, you're actually pretty nice. When you’re not goin’ outta your way to be mean to me, that is.”

Summary
Rocky states his proposal as soon as Grace has one foot in the ladder, and Grace misses the next rung and almost cracks his head against the side of his bed in shock.
There is no way Rocky had actually said what Grace thought he heard, just now. “You…you want to what? For science?!”
Rocky tsks, like Grace has taken the implications way out of proportion. “Experiment,” he stresses. “Logical, methodical experiment. You make it sound… unreasonable.”
Grace explodes. “Unreasonable! Unreasonable! You want to stick your hand up my ass!”

Summary
If Rocky propositions him during the workday, he makes no such attempt at a performance—or, as Rocky likes to call it, courtship.
After they determine this is indeed the word Rocky’s using, Grace snorts. “No. Courtship is, like, old-fashioned dating. Very formal old-fashioned dating.”
“No, no.” Rocky gestures to what he gave Grace. “Is courtship. Trust.”
“I don’t know what this is, but it’s not courtship!” Grace holds up the honest-to-God padded handcuffs Rocky made for him. They jingle a little. “Explain how this is old-fashioned to you. Quickly.”

"Teach me, then."
Rocky freezes at my words. I guess he wasn't expecting that. I feel a little smug, like I always do when I manage to surprise him.
"You want to know more about my egg cycle?"
"Sure," I say.
Of course I want to know about his eggs. Has he lost his mind? I want to know everything about him.

Summary
This whole thing had started out as an impromptu biology exchange, where Rocky had explained the basic nerve structure of his digits and palm, and Grace had, in turn, explained some of the nerve structures in the human body. Including in his neck, where Rocky's third hand rests. His heart is hammering in his chest, and now he knows that Rocky can feel it through his fingers instead of just hearing it as he usually does.
