    Summary

    We thought we were the last, hoped we were the last, because we couldn’t bear the idea of being the only ones this awake and alive in a world as vast as this.

    And we died alone.

    When the others are born, many, many years later, they find us, everything we left for them.

    Humans being the first. Not the strongest or the smartest or the weirdest or the most violent. Just the first.

    Summary

    “I just think it’s kind of a messed-up thing to do to a baby,” I said.

     

    AKA: the one with time travel. When the opportunity arises, Rocky and Ryland can't turn down the chance to save Rocky's crew.

    It all kind of spirals from there.

    Summary

    “What are you talking about?” Grace's fingers played quick chords as he spoke. He didn’t even look as he did it, but it did not make them any less purposeful.

    “Discussing possible reasons why Tau Ceti is not infected while other stars are,” Eva replied deftly. “I would invite you to join, but we were just finishing—”

    “Oh, that’s easy.” His hand twisted a knob, and the notes came out sharper. “It is infected—Petrova Line and everything.”

    In Grace's opinion, dreaming about time traveling is no excuse for getting out of practice with his Eridian. To the rest of the Petrova Taskforce, it seems a bit odd that their resident Astrophage expert has suddenly taken to carrying a keyboard around and playing it whenever he speaks. Eva Stratt resolves to figure out what is going on.
