Summary
Ever since the fire happened, March hasn't been sleeping well. Again and again, he found himself back in their old home, reliving the moment he lost everything. No matter how much the dream changes though, it always would end the same.
Tonight, though, the dream changed. And not just the subtle changes that March is used to. This time, he finally gets the dream that has lingered in his mind ever since the night of the fire. He gets to save his family.
For the first time, March is given a chance to save both his wife and daughter. But as the flames in the home draw closer, he realizes that maybe his dreams were never truly about saving his family after all.

Summary
Jimmy Solidarity was a middle school science teacher. He wasn't meant for anything larger than that, and he was fine with that.
But that all changes when he wakes up alone in space, with no memories of who or what he once was, and why he was in space. As his memory begins to return to him, he learns that he is humanities last hope to solve the mystery behind a substance that is causing the sun to die out.
With what he can piece together and the information he slowly begins to remember as time goes on, Jimmy must find a way to save the sun, and to save earth, alone.
At least, that was what he thought. Turns out he may not be as alone as he thought he was after all.
Or:
A retelling of Project Hail Mary except all the characters are from Hermitcraft / the Life Series !!

Summary
Frankie really did not want to be living a lie. He didn’t want to worry about touching water, worry about what his friends would think if they learned the truth. He’s had close calls before, but somehow they still didn’t know he was a robot.
How could he even bring it up, at this rate? Would the others understand? He’s sure Vector and Marina would be understanding.. But..
At some point Frankie would have to tell them. Frankie knew this. But everyday he got further in his lie, and everyday the guilt would only pile up more. Frankie really needed to tell his friends the truth, but he knew he’d lose their trust.
Or: Frankie thinks about his life

Summary
Joel woke up feeling miserable. He felt exhausted, despite his body deciding now would be the best time to wake. He’d attempt to retrieve medicine from the kitchen, only to find himself unable to do so.
With a sigh, Joel reluctantly opened his contacts, clicking on the first one to show up: Etho. His comm would ring for a few minutes, before the ringing would end.
“Joel? Is something wrong?”
