    Summary

    21 years after the Beetles make their miraculous return to Earth, another object sails through the vast, star studded seas of darkness.

    A message in a bottle set to drift back home, writings from their nearest neighbors and their own furthest-flung star. Containing a scientist’s version of an interstellar postcard, of sorts.

    “Hello, Earth. This is Doctor Ryland Grace, doing what is probably the worst form of an anthropology study ever manifested.”

    Summary

    The first time we were discussing the politics of his homeworld and Rocky told me about this group I kinda brushed it off to be honest.

    A small fraction of Eridians who are rumored to be almost as old as Erid itself and who never show themselves publicly, have a lot of influence over the entire planet and pull all the strings from the shadows? Yeah, no. That sounded a little bit too much like those conspiracy theories your illuminati obsessed neighbor would sprout at you in the elevator if you were unfortunate enough to be trapped in there with him on your way to work.

    Which just shows that even with a doctorate in microbiology I am still an idiot because why do I constantly compare earth standards to an alien species? 

    **************

    Some very important Eridians want to observe one of Grace's lessons. And hey, he's so great at public speaking under pressure, what could go wrong?

    Summary

    Grace, Rocky, and Adrian spend an afternoon fishing in the biosphere. The water’s looking nice, and the miscellaneous Eridian wildlife (that Adrian painstakingly genetically modified and selectively bred to survive in a highly oxygenated, extremely low pressure, cold as hell environment) is practically biting at the hooks (that aren’t really hooks) already.

    OR

    The "go fishing" sequence of project hail mary that won’t make me cry
