    Summary

    [What does hand flex mean, question?] Rocky asks from where we're huddled together on the floor, watching the 2005 adaption of Pride & Prejudice.

    "It's uh—" I hit pause, search for the right word. "Have we had yearning in the vocab yet?"

    ——

    or: two years and seventeen days after reaching Erid's orbit, the climate control in the biodome breaks

    Summary

    Rocky has officially moved into Hail Mary with Grace, but he's still dealing with the aftereffects of living nearly fifty human years by himself. By chance, he finds himself singing with Grace, and it's clear Grace doesn't fully understand what that means for Eridians.

    This story roughly follows the plot of both the book and the film, but Rocky and Grace's personalities are more reminiscent of the book. Furthermore, Rocky's speaking style closely follows the book, although his physical appearance is closer to his depiction in the film.

    Summary

    "There is no point in any of this rumination. You are gone. You are nothing now but a muse, something that I can conjure upon command and listen. You are nothing more now than a lullaby, a prayer, a dissonant, augmented, ugly, beautiful melody."

    Rocky and Grace part ways for their respective planets. It should feel like a victory. It doesn't.

    Summary

    Grace thought choosing Rocky over home was the easiest decision he ever made.

    Coming back to Earth is harder.

    As old memories resurface and the people around them begin to question the bond that kept them alive, Grace and Rocky find themselves fighting for something neither of them has ever had before: a future.

    Summary

    For Eridians, the six of six of six is special, and today marks Grace's 216th anniversary. Measured, of course, by Earth's orbit around its star Sol.

    In the morning, while the fog is still high, Adrian finds Rocky at the beach.

    Summary

    The deaf spot of all Eridians is silent, open air. A piece of the crumbling biodome’s ceiling finally snaps from its connection point and plummets. It falls towards the abandoned shore, unapologetic to anyone who may already be down there.

    Rocky can’t realize something’s quickly approaching them until it’s far too late.

    ~~~~

    Set hundreds of years after the end of the book, a case of wrong-place/wrong-time leads Rocky to a catch a glimpse of what and who might be waiting for them beyond.

    (Rocky finally gets to see Grace again)

    Summary

    “Grace. What are you testing, question?”

    Rocky. I can’t put this all on the guy right now. He should be happy. We are going to Erid. We are going to save his planet.

    “CBC. A complete blood count.” I answer, hoping he doesn’t ask me why.

    “Purpose, question?”

    Rocky, please. I’m trying to spare you right now.

     

     

    Basically, Grace gets exposed to a dangerous amount of radiation during an EVA and doesn't want to tell Rocky bc of what happened to Rocky's crew <3

     

    THIS IS A REWORKED VERSION OF "TEMPEST" - after some comments, I wanted to keep the soul of the story, but make it more scientifically plausible. While there are still probably some inaccuracies, I still hope this isn't as messy as before.

    Petulantly, Rocky says, “Grace sound stupid. Like child.”

    “I’m just talking how you talk, buddy.”

    “Yes. This is because I talk like child, to speak to stupid human.”

    “Well, you don’t have to do that,” I say without thinking.

    “♪♫♩as this♪ when, underst♪♪♫d ♪me, question?” Rocky says.

    “What?”

    Ryland Grace was, at long last, adapting on Erid—even thriving—until he wasn’t. There came a tipping point when it became clear to the Eridians that it was time to send him back home to Earth.

    Summary

    The Eridians have finally gotten the water feature in Ryland's personal zoo enclosure just right (even if Rocky would like him to stop calling his dome that).

    Rocky refuses to believe that humans naturally float. There is no way Ryland's entire species regularly goes into deep water for fun.

    Summary

    Getting up is painful. Especially after having the air knocked out of his lungs.

    He spares a glance at Dustin, who seems to be sitting up already. He’s okay, then. Didn’t hurt himself with the fall. Good. That’s good. That’s all the concern he can spare at the moment.

    “I’m done,” he repeats, choking around his emotions as he storms away.

    Summary

    A sequel to isolation.

    Jayce gets Viktor out of Piltover, and nothing is as easy as it should be.

    “I feel as if I’m not quite myself,” Viktor says.

    Jayce is quiet, and the silence stretches between them. When Jayce finally speaks, he says, “I don’t feel like myself either.”

    Viktor meets his eyes. It’s a marvel, he thinks, that even when he is most lost to his own mind, Jayce can still follow.

    Summary

    He could go now, he supposes. He has spent untold centuries despising this place, and he really only needed to stay to ensure there was a universe where it wouldn’t come to be. He played his part, set things in motion. Found the one thing that could save him from himself and sent him back to do just that. Now, he should be free. He should find another world to settle in, find peace, leave this desolate land to waste away as it deserves. There is nothing left for him here.

    His gaze travels down to Jayce’s hollowed figure, hands still open from relinquishing his hammer, and any thought of leaving is banished from his mind forever.

    ***

    Bad future timeline mage Viktor hangs out with the hollow arcane husk of Jayce. That's it. That's the fic.

    Summary

    "
    Jayce’s breaths began to come faster.
    The room was so red- fire and smoke and- but- that wasn’t-
    Jayce lifted his hands off of Viktor’s chest. Looked down at the knees of his pants, and the awful redbrown stains his palms had just left.
    “Blood,” Jayce said, but it came out as less than a whisper. Viktor was bleeding. No, that wasn’t right. He shouldn’t be doing that.
    Jayce gripped the fabric and tore- hoped Viktor wouldn’t be angry at Jayce for destroying his clothing after this was all over.
    "
