Summary
Solanum has been on the Quantum Moon for a very long time. Her life has been quiet and uneventful as she stands there under the magnificent mirror of the eye. Things change however, when she finally leaves, finding the system she had once called home nothing like it once was.
With the help of a fledgling hearthian astronaut and a creature neither nomai nor hearthian, Solanum finds her footing in this new world, even as a new signal shakes the system...

Summary
Shale, the newest member of the Outer Wilds Ventures space program, is about to set off on their first solo voyage among the stars. Things take a turn for the bizarre, however, when the large statue of a nomai, the alien precursor race that settled in this system before disappearing, turns to 'connect' with Shale.
Things only get weirder when after a short time in space, the sun dies. The resulting explosion kills Shale, but somehow they awaken back to the moment right before they left for space. No one else seems to remember this odd experience except for Gabbro, an astronaut who is only slightly less new to the program than Shale. Together they must figure out what is happening to their solar system while at the same time supporting each other.

Summary
Gabbro is doing their thing on Giant's Deep when Shale comes to visit. They're in quite the mood and things only spiral out of control into a vortex of self loathing to which they must drag themselves out of. A little depresso espresso one off I wrote while sick.

Learning to Catch at the End of Everything by Fridurmus

Summary
Sanidine is ready to get out into space, and nothing is going to stop them from hopping into their ship and becoming the new best there ever was. They'll solve the mysteries of the Nomai, find the truth behind their missing idol, and advance Hearthian exploration more than ever before, with the help of the translator that they built with Hal and a brand new ship Slate calls their finest work yet. Their launch day is going so well, until suddenly it isn't. A chance encounter with a new artifact in the museum sends them rocketing to Giant's Deep, seeking out Gabbro right away to talk about a shared experience.
It's the first of many shared experiences the pair have, as they come to realize their situation. Faced with the reality that the only person either of them can turn to is the other, they're soon forced to learn what it really means to catch someone when they've got nowhere else to fall, and to let themselves be caught in turn. And if they can do that, then maybe, just maybe, they can save the universe... or at least save each other.

Summary
The Interloper never came and the once great Nomai civilization was left to stagnate in their failure in the middle of empty space. With the Eye out of reach, the Sun stable, no Vessel, and the Quantum Moon gone from the night sky the Clan eventually splintered in two, barely kept on speaking terms only through the young Hearthian pursuits.
Eight thousand years have passed and the Moon has returned, carrying with it a Nomai misplaced in time. Now Solanum and her fiery new friend Thorne, the Hearthian Ambassador, set off on a race against the clock to save their clans from a supernova. And neither is ready to give up their ambitions of rediscovery either.
Only one chance to get it right.

Summary
They *are* the only one that Hatchite has even begun to open up to since their Launch Day, and out of all the non-Gabbro Hearthians, they've spent the most time with Hatchite by a kilometer. They know pretty much everything about pre-Launch Day Hatchite... but that doesn't help them here, because they have no clue how much Hatchite has changed.
Or
Everyone gathers to formulate a plan for Hatchite's hatchday, only to realize that Hatchite isn't the same Hearthian they were last year, and they have no clue what kind of celebration they'd like.

Summary
At long last the Hearthians are ready to explore beyond their solar system, with the help of reverse-engineered Nomai warp technology. Four brave souls - Feldspar, Gabbro, Chert and Riebeck - have volunteered for the trip. They’ll go further than any Hearthian has ever been before, leaving behind everything they have ever known.
What could possibly go wrong?
(No-time-loop AU, in which Bad Things Happen and I take any excuse to continue writing Gabbro & Chert awkwardly flirting in space, but in-person this time.)
