Summary
He’s covered in roach guts. Glowing roach guts, wonderful. They smell terrible, and Ryland can’t even bathe, ugh. But the poor thing was slowly freezing to death. He couldn’t just…
Grace sighs and stands, wincing at the squish of the mess around him. He shakes the mess off his hands. Lesson learned. They dealt with radroaches in the Vault differently. Maybe he should take a page out of their book and just shoot them on sight.
That reminds him. He needs to go through his pack.
The sofa’s too rotted out to hold Grace’s weight, so he scrapes off the worst of the roach gore (ew ew ew ew), unstraps his back and lets it flop to the filthy ground. Cheese and crackers, that thing was heavy! At least they weren’t sending him out without provisions.

Summary
The man twists his face into disgust. His red eye glitters unnaturally, and the teeth on his cheek suddenly seem a whole lot sharper. Ryland gulps. “I’m not eating that,” the man says firmly, “I’m not eating it.”
“I promise, it’s food,” Grace says, holding up the shiny little tube. “It’s not very good, but it has to be better than starving.”
“You’re with the COI, aren’t you?” The man says accusingly, “You’re trying to kill me. My sentence has already passed, hasn’t it? I’ve done my penance. I’m not eating that, I won’t let you poison me. I was promised, you people promised me that you’d let me go if I…you promised you wouldn’t kill me!”
Grace blinks stupidly. “What?”

Summary
“Heard the sink running,” Grace slurs, already burying his face back into the pillow. “Must’ve been thirsty.”
“Tripped and fell in the sand. Double gravity’s a bitch. Had to wash the dirt off.”
Grace grumbles. “The sand clogs up the sink,” he gripes, but he’s clearly too sleepy to really argue. “Should’ve just bathed.”
“And woken you up?”
“I’m awake anyway. Now lemme sleep.”
Simon chuckles. “Wasn’t stopping you.”
“Mm,” Grace mumbles, clearly already sleeping again. Simon breathes a sigh of relief. He lifts his hand to look at it. The Band-Aid doesn’t quite match his skin tone, and there’s already a little dark splotch of blood on the pad visible through the other side. The throbbing has eased to a dull ache that pulses with his heartbeat. He’d put the Band-Aid on too tight on purpose to feel each thrum.
Grace doesn’t have to know about this. Simon can keep this for himself.

Summary
It's just an innocuous comment, that's how it starts.
He's not even sure why he says it; it's too much, entirely, pushing things too far, but— “It's not—one and done, you know? I got, uh. Stamina.”
“Stamina,” Bucky repeats, flat. “Uh huh.” And then he's throwing back the rest of his drink, wiping his mouth with the back of his hand, turning to Steve and squaring his jaw all challenge. “How many times?”
“How—”
“Yeah. How many times. In one go.”
“I—” Steve starts, flushing so hot he feels like he must be a beacon in the bar, shining through the grey-out. Bucky's still looking at him, curious, and something else under it, something Steve can't place. “Four,” he says, compulsively too-honest in the face of Bucky’s gaze, and Bucky's eyes widen.

Summary
‘There appears to be a real risk,’ said Psychologist Prime, tapping a stylus against their tablet in an idle way that frayed at the edge of Adrian’s sore nerves, ‘That should Alien Human-from-Earth-of-Sol Asylum-seeker Savior-of-Erid Grace perish, then your mate Savior Rocky may experience a radical and potentially fatal decline in physiological and psychological health.’
‘...I see,’ said Adrian. With exceptional calmness.
---
Let it not be said that Adrian was not devoted as well. They had stood firm, a loyal widower longer than others could fathom. Once you encountered a love like Rocky’s, there could be no replacement. Nothing could even compare.
‘Do you understand that?’ Adrian wanted to ask. So desperately, they wanted the alien’s reply. ‘Are you the only other creature in the universe who understands what it is like to be loved by someone so completely?’
---
Adrian meets Grace several times, before Grace is healthy enough to meet them in return. Despite light-years of distance between their species, Adrian might have finally met the first other being who appreciates Rocky like they do; or so they hope.

Summary
While researching human needs Rocky learns about touch starvation and the importance of touching for humans. Worried for Grace's well-being, Rocky plans several different ways to provide Grace with the touching intimacy he needs to be healthy. Rocky expects to be praised for his initiative and ingenuity, but instead Grace's reaction is…concerning.
I realize that as I’ve been trying to imagine a nice, pleasant hug, I’ve actually stressed myself out a little. I can’t help but frown and slightly grimace at the thought. This can’t be normal. Humans enjoy touching! Imagining a hug should be comforting. It should reduce stress.

Summary
On the trip back to Erid Rocky is excited to spend quality time with their favorite human, but Grace is acting…strangely. They are unbearably quiet. The longer it goes on the more certain Rocky is that there is something very wrong.
“I trust you with my sad experiences. I tell you about crew deaths and how it make me feel. Rocky trust Grace. Now Grace trust Rocky.”
“What— what if I wasn’t a good person like you? What if I was actually a coward and a liar? Would you still trust me?”

Summary
En route to Erid, the Hail Mary picks up a signal from an unknown object. It turns out to be a ship– an impossibly HUMAN ship, nearly 12 light-years away from anywhere that might make sense. Curiosity kills the cat, Grace and Rocky get a little bit more than they bargained for, and the Hail Mary might just have a new crewmate.

Summary
"My lord," the priest said. "Are you all right?"
"I — I'm fine," he said. Aleksander had asked this of him and he could not — he would not disappoint.
His heart beat steadily, the ring on his finger hot from the water. It was Aleksander's ring, he remembered with a jolt. Had — where had he gotten it? Had Aleksander slid it onto Eika’s finger by his own hand, rough with sword callouses and warm with blood? He couldn't remember.
Eika's beloved half-brother, Prince Aleksander, ascends to the throne, claiming all rights and responsibilities that come with it.

Summary
It just appeared, without warning. Roy had had a few marks before; one when he was very young, which had faded within a year, and one on the cusp of his departure for Ishval which had been all but ripped from him within a week on the front lines. And then there was this: messy, scribbly, with the letters half crowded together and half spaced awkwardly far apart. At first, Roy didn’t understand it. And then once he did, he tried to burn the damn thing off.
After all, when he meets Edward Elric, he’s twelve years old and only has one arm.

Summary
So, it didn’t start out like this.
Alfred would scoff at the statement, about how Bruce was trying to justify the whole situation to himself. It had started out as a simple design, black everything with black outlines and black hood. It got a little more intense as the world went on, got wind of his ghost on the streets, and became scared of The Bat . So Bruce got a little more creative with it, Alfred and him had a good laugh over the name, the scare, and Alfred had a vicious streak of humor that he had passed onto his ward-
So now the suit had a visible bat-theme, an insignia to drape in the shadows and to paint across the streets of Gotham.
It only took a year into the whole charade of heroism for Bruce to overhear a conversation between some goons- some low level thug hired by the Riddler this week- about nothing at all pertaining to what the hell the Riddler was doing in the sewers but instead:
“ The Batman can fly, you know, I’ve seen his wings.”

A world where nobody has wings, but people think they do, and that changes everything.

“Did you want to be an astronaut when you were a kid?” She asks.
“Not really, but I did watch Star Trek a lot.”
“I’ve never seen that.”
“Not a space nerd?”
“I’m not a nerd,” Eva says seriously, and he laughs because, no, she doesn’t look like a nerd at all.
In which Ryland and Eva meet at different moments of their lives. This, somehow, doesn't change anything at all.

Summary
Simon focused on the view. So many stars. They were beautiful, and he was happy they'd be the last thing he'd see.
"I'm ready." Simon whispered into the still air. The combing stopped, and Simon mourned the loss immediately.
"You can kill me now."
AKA: What if Simon misinterpreted why Grace was showing him the Greenhouse? Our bodies become the soil, after all.
