    Summary

    "Hey, wait," says Gregor, the odd pieces of the morning clicking together slowly. He turns to Ryōshū. "What did you mean, 'obviously'?" She levels him a stare and takes another drag of her cigarette. "Did you kill Hong Lu?"

    Gregor feels stupid the instant he says it. Of course she didn't do that. Even though Ishmael had put the idea in his head, she hadn't been serious. Gregor's overreacting and making connections that aren't there.

    Ryōshū shrugs. "He asked."

    Summary

    A less fortunate version of Heathcliff tries to make something of himself for Catherine.

    The Full Stop Office seems like just the sort of place to start to make that life. A place that will take him if no one else will, and a boss that’s nothing if not the smiling sort. He’ll take what he can get until he’s the man Catherine needs, but-

    Damn him, if his feelings don’t get in the way first.

    Summary

    “Convict,” said the woman with the bone leg, her voice a dusky rattle. “You’ve been brought here to accompany a necromantic adept on a scientific expedition as his protector, in exchange for the pardon of your sentence.”
    “You’ll kind of be like my cavalier,” said the gorgeous man jovially.
    “He is not a cavalier,” corrected the woman. “Not even close.”

    aka: the locked tomb bloodymary au that (literally!) came to me in a dream. Simon is a former prisoner of the Ninth house prison tasked with protecting necromancer Ryland Grace and his best friend/fossil bone construct on a dangerous mission to a planet full of mysterious necromancy. fun stuff ensues.

    Summary

    "Keep her busy!" Heathcliff shouts, steadying himself and hoisting his rifle up to a firing position.

    "<No, don't shoot!>" shouts the clock-headed individual. Hong Lu risks looking away from the disoriented monster to throw a quick glance in Heathcliff's direction, and he finds his subordinate visibly hesitating—expression conflicted, fingers frozen in the process of reloading his rifle. Whatever power of compulsion is in play here, it's affecting them both.

    But like hell is Hong Lu going to stand around and let that thing attack Heathcliff again.

    Summary

    Simon waited.

    Waited for them to apologize. Tell him there’s nothing they could do. That he wasn’t worth the trouble or resources, that he wasn’t worth the time.

    But that never came.

    Instead, after a second Grace came back on the line, his voice sounding determined now. “Alright,” he said. “Hang tight.”

    Simon blinked slowly. “What?”

    Apparently, Ryland Grace's existence as a low temperature, oxygen breathing lifeform is the dream of Erid's fringe theory xenobiologists. Good for them. He's not jealous.

    Summary

    You are profoundly alone. You have been for a while. Suddenly, you aren't anymore, and you are struggling to be normal about it. Pooling strengths and weaknesses with the strange creature on its explosive-atmosphere ship might just be the only way to save both of your stars, but it might also lead to more than just strictly scientific discoveries, and neither of you are sure how to feel about that.

    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.

    Summary

    Eva feels like the breath is knocked out of her lungs when the man walks in.

    Dirty blond hair. Blue eyes. Sort of like… if Ryland Grace was hit by a car several times. It was undeniably him.

    “So you’re Eva Stratt,” The man says gruffly, slamming both hands on her desk. He looked exactly like Ryland, it was terrifying. It felt like watching a ghost haunt her in real life.

    “You’re the crazy woman that sent my baby brother up into space. Let’s talk, yeah?”

    or

    Colt Seavers finds out his twin brother was sent on a suicide mission. He does not take it well.

    Summary

    Eva Stratt has never been a woman who hesitates.

    She’s made countless decisions after decisions throughout her life, often regardless of the consequences that may result. She’s not an idiot. She’s well aware that there will be consequences, and she’s equally sure that the consequences will be of little concern. The end justifies the means — her actions will be judged, but at least they will have happened.

    But here, alone in a Russian conference room, for once in her life Eva Stratt does not know what to do.

    OR; The beetles make it home.

    Summary

    When the Chain sets out to investigate the strange occurrences taking place on Mt. Lanayru, they don’t expect to find devastation and disease. They don’t expect to be caught in a raging storm far beyond any of their imaginations. They don’t expect to be thrown from the mountainside

    And they certainly don’t expect to end up worlds apart from each other, unsure of how to return.

    “Grace!” Rocky says. “Look!”

    I look. Then I gasp.

    “Is Adrian!” Rocky says.

    Summary

    Grace is put on cleaning duty and gets a mysterious fourth bag of vodka for his troubles.

    Rocky begrudgingly takes on the role of Designated Driver slash Space Blob Supervisor, and receives a different kind of gift in return.


    “Grace. What are you doing?”

    Grace's mouth, still smushed against my xenonite, curves upward: Contentment, happiness, satisfaction. Interesting, that it should be prone to smiling when made stupid by ethanol, but not so much when it gets stupid because of a lack of sleep.

    “‘s called a kiss, buddy. I‘m givin’ you. A kiss. ‘cause you're my best friend annnnd I like you. And y’nno what, you're actually pretty nice. When you’re not goin’ outta your way to be mean to me, that is.”

    Summary

    It's not jealousy. Adrian is adamant about that. They are actually insisting that it’s not any emotion at all. Not even dislike. They are simply completely uninterested in anything that concerns “the human”. 

    Rocky believes them. Adrian has always been the level-headed one out of the two of them. They are too logical to be jealous. They acknowledge that Grace and Rocky have a special bond after everything they went through together and also understand that none of that will ever pose a threat to their relationship. 

    Neither are they heartless or ungrateful. They know that Grace is the only reason that Rocky is back at all, the only reason their star has stopped dying. Adrian has told Rocky again and again that they are grateful and happy and wish the alien no ill will. They even helped with the construction of the biodome.

    And yet they have no desire to get to know Grace. 

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

    You know those videos where the dad is like "You may keep the cat but I will have nothing to do with it" and a few days later they are smothering the kitty with cuddles and love?

    Adrian never stood a chance.

    Summary

    The longer Simon spends with Ryland Grace and Rocky, the more he realizes they're genuinely good people (or rock-spider-crab things)... and the more convinced he becomes that he doesn't belong with them in the slightest.

    (Or: A criminal, a science teacher, and a rock walk into a spaceship.

    This is a continuation of "The People We Meet at the End of the World", which you may need to read first for context.)

    Summary

    It was an inevitability that at some point on the long journy to Erid, Rocky and Grace's conversation would stray towards the carnal act of human mating.

    Somehow, there is still more for Grace to remember.
