    Summary

    Grace typed in the translation...

    He could have walked away,
    there was no reason for him to be staring at the screen,
    at that word...
    ...So then why was he?

    After all, it was just a word. A simple, five letter word.

    Or; What if Grace had figured out he was forced onto the Hail Mary right after Rocky calls him brave?

    Summary

    Ned perked back up again. “Trouble?”

    “Not the kind you are thinking,” Peter shook his head. “I left my-“ Peter glanced around them. “Coat at the tower. In the open.”

    Summary

    I pour myself orange juice and fill the rest of my plate. Eggs, bacon, a couple of slices of tomato I smother with salt and pepper, and the biscuits and gravy take center stage. Normally, I save the best things for last, but my stomach pangs and I’m about ready to drool just from the smell of the gravy alone. I need to taste it first.

    It’s incredible . I want—

    “Your face is leaking again. Food hurt you, question?”

    I blink, and Rocky unblurs as the tears drip out.

    or Grace finds the Day 1-9 first meal tubes of the other crew members a year into the trip to Erid and accidentally unlocks some difficult memories.

    Summary

    They were all such vibrant brave people, people who were willing to give up their lives to save humanity. What would they think of me now? The sole survivor of the mission being a coward who was too afraid of dying to do what he knew was right?.

    I try to speak but the words catch in my throat as I let out a series of creaking sobs instead. I don’t deserve to be here, I don’t deserve to be the one who survived. I don’t know how to tell Rocky all of that, instead I manage to choke out “I miss my crew”

    (TLDR) While looking through some supplies in the storage room, Grace finds something that reminds him of his old crewmates, and he's forced to confront the topic he's been avoiding.
