    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 may be 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 Rocky again.

    The task proves more complicated than he thought.

    Summary

    "There's no need to negotiate for your safety, Doctor Grace," Stratt says sternly. "I can assure you, after saving the world, you will be looked after."

    "Um, no," he says, shaking his head. "I'm not negotiating for my safety." He steps aside. “I’m negotiating for theirs.”

    They walk into the light of the open doorway; Simon, squinting hard against the vivid sun with his hand raised to shield his eyes and Rocky, who chirps a casual "Hello, humans!" with a wave.

    There’s a gasp; someone takes a step backward; one of the military personnel raises their rifle slightly before Stratt makes a sharp gesture for them to stand down.

    Grace doesn’t have eyes for them - he only looks at Stratt.

    And he decides, then and there, to replace the image of Stratt’s face sending him to his death, full of remorse and sadness, with the one in front of him: utter, complete disbelief.

    Grace thinks he'll treasure it forever.

    Summary

    After the Taumoeba leak, after I decided to die after all and turned my ship around to save Rocky, after Rocky's frantic calculations about food supplies, Taumoeba multiplication rates, and human caloric intake needs, after we realized that with some rationing and luck I would make it, but that we were headed toward the unknown territory of trying to rapid-prototype me a life support system and synthetic food supply on an inhospitable planet: after all of that, after everything, I shouldn't have been surprised that it only took a few months on board the Hail Mary for things to get weird.

    Summary

    "The starvation-predation hypothesis (SPH) posits that, during food shortages, the risk of starvation requires prey to forego antipredator behavior to increase feeding rates. Such shifts in antipredator behavior may further increase the risk of predation."

    Grace finished his math and flitted his eyes over the formulas, checking for errors. The result had him pretty confident that Rocky would wake up before it was too late to check out the anomalous blip. Satisfied, he acknowledged the alert and silenced it for the next six hours. Mary would only re-alert him if something new appeared or the blip suddenly changed trajectory or speed.  

    Grace flopped back in the pilot chair and looked over at the window in the side of the cockpit. It pointed in the same direction as the cupola downstairs, and  Grace found himself staring at the binary stars again. A bright blue-white dwarf and its dimmer red-gold mate, quietly dancing and switching sides every few days as they orbited their primary star together. The odd pair. The dancing couple.

    As far as Grace knew, they were reflecting off the retinas of the only creature who could sense light within about 15 light years.

    Summary

    Simon the Butcher rose up to meet his fate with vicious defiance. He saved the black box, he killed the monster, and he looked into the face of God just to spit 'fuck you' into Its bloody cosmic Eye. That was supposed to be the end of it; a visceral, desperate end to a broken man who lived and breathed violence.

    So when he awakens in the care of his own personal saving Grace, he's caught between disbelief, confusion, and a tiny glimmer of hope unlike any he'd felt since before the Quiet Rapture. Is it a mercy, or a new form of torture?

    If an unknowable cosmic being looks at our universe through a pinhole and makes sense of what It sees, then either God is a sadist, or The Worst Scientist In The Universe.

That is until the day that the sky cracks, and the planet shudders. Something has entered the atmosphere, bringing with it visions of viscera and tragedy, and... humanity?

That is, until he starts to hear a voice. It soothing, happy, free. It even calls itself a grace. Why does he feel like he knows that voice more and more with each passing sentence? Like he's... known it before?

    Aka, Simon learns to trust again and Grace heals, and they both find love.

    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.]
