Summary
The mood in the launch room was dour.
No one expected it to be a true celebration. Not when they were sending three people to their deaths, but they’d intended to open a few bottles in their honor and commiserate about the sadness of the inevitable future and pray for the shimmering hope that now prepared to sail to a far-off solar system.
But that was before DuBois and Shapiro’s deaths.
OR
The Hail Mary is launching with Ryland Grace aboard. The people left behind need to deal with what that means.

It is the correct choice. The most benefit for the least cost. Elegance-In-Motion will simply wake up on Erid, belly full of proper nutrients, body healed from adventures in space.
The problem is that they both really, really, really don't want to.

Grace and Rocky agree to put him under for the journey back to Erid. Rocky tries to cope with being alone again.

"What do you think happened, Captain?"
"Don't know. Don't care. Need coffee."
A pause. Then, "Do we wake Grace?"
"No."
"But—"
"No, Ilyukhina."
(Or: Ilyukhina and Yao wake up early due to a malfunction on the Hail Mary. They do what needs to be done—for the dying star they left behind and the only person who can save them all.)

Summary
"Rocky did not understand human names and titles when we met. Eridian names longer, give information on Eridian's home, associations, skills." For the first time in ages, he positioned two of his arms together, forming the design that Grace thought of like a family crest, a single design bisected.
"You should teach me to read those before we get to Erid, so I can be polite." As Grace considered the linework, already picking up on some vague ideas from the shapes in Rocky's carapace, something else occurred to him. "So… I picked 'Rocky' because your outer shell looks like stone."
"And for inspirational story of athlete who defeats human system of poverty to become great champion. Eye of the tiger."
"Retroactively, yeah." Grace bent at the hips, getting to Rocky's 'eye' level. "So what'd you name me?"

Summary
Mark Watney has survived 118 sols on Mars, and he wouldn’t exactly say it’s been a cakewalk, but he only has about three more years of listening to disco to go (ugh) before Ares IV picks him up and take him home. But when something crashes on the Martian surface only a few kilometers from the Hab, NASA wants him to leave the safety of his little home on the Martian prairie to go investigate…what could possibly go wrong?
Ryland Grace has survived a long time in space and almost a decade on Erid, but the anxiety of not knowing if the beetles made it to Earth finally drives him to try the dangerous journey back home, and Rocky and Adrian come with him. Everything was actually going pretty good…until a horrible accident leaves them hurtling through space (and time) with no choice but to crash land on the wrong planet.
How is Watney going to deal with the unexpected company (and their weird secretiveness over why they were in space)? Is Grace going to be able to adjust to being around another human being again? And how are Rocky and Adrian going to handle the uncertainty of a reception to an Earth that’s never heard of aliens before?
More importantly…how the fuck is NASA going to get them all home alive?

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
It was a strange but not unheard-of thing to have one’s soulmarks on their fingertips.
The little black dots on each fingertip of his left hand could almost pass as non-protruding moles on a first glance, except the chances of having five identically sized moles on one hand were slim to none. His kids would ask about them, sometimes. They hadn’t the age nor maturity yet to understand the nuance behind soulmarks—their different ways of presenting, what they entailed, why Mr. Grace hadn’t found his person yet if he was so nice—but had loads of hypotheses around the topic. For Ryland, it was a bit of a touchy subject to teach.
So it was more than just a little disappointing when Director Stratt walked in his classroom that fateful fall afternoon and he felt the signature twinge that everyone describes, sudden and sharp and deep in his core the moment he laid eyes on her, sure that there would be something there when his gaze immediately dropped to her hands—only for them to be pale, porcelain, and bare. If she noticed the host of emotions that crossed his face over the span of their interaction, she didn’t comment. And that was that.
Or: those four years on Stratt's Vat.

Summary
As he stared down into the lumpy grey goop that was his evening rations, he contemplated whether it was really worth it.
They’d come a very long way just for Grace to give up and die at the last hurdle, both physically and emotionally. The Tau Ceti system was a long, long way away now, and Grace had faced not one but two highly emotional suicide missions. Three, if you counted the time before he was given a military grade roofie and hucked into space without his memories.
Rocky and Grace make it back to Erid! Huzzah!
Now they have to navigate all of... that.
