Summary
He'd never imagined this is what untethered existence could look like, because when he had time, a couple of years or decades ago, it was hard to imagine the depth of the wounds. Later it was hard to imagine recovery, as one faltering look towards the gashes opened them up deeper, and there was pain, so much of it. Now, somehow, he's getting better.
(Cas tells Dean that he's allowed to.)

Summary
At some point, Grace was roofied at a nightclub.
He thinks it was in undergrad. It’s a strange and nebulous memory, even among his many strange and nebulous memories. Like weird flashes that don’t really follow any order and don’t really mean anything until they kind of start to.
He gets the first sense of it when he’s tipsy on Ilyukhina’s vodka, lying on the floor. He knows he’s been drunk before. He knows he’s been to clubs, because he can hear the music and picture the lights. But it’s this specific moment where he tilts, and he remembers thinking, oh, this isn’t right. And then that’s all.
It keeps coming back up. That oh feeling. Maybe because nothing is right, because he’s not supposed to be alone in the middle of space, with no way to get home.

Summary
"I'll keep you updated. In the meantime, go back to sleep. When you need to worry, I'll tell you."
"Heh." Ryland ran his hand down his face. "It's terrible you know that it actually makes me feel better. What would I do without you?"
"Explode at a colleague at a conference and get expelled from academia and become a middle school teacher." Eva said, promptly.
"Wow, you've thought about that way too hard." Ryland laughed. "Middle schoolers might not vape in class, though. Maybe I should switch."
"Let's not joke."

Summary
The engineer takes my hand. His skin runs hot. Very hot. He doesn't let go at what I would gauge as a socially-acceptable handshake time interval. Are we just holding hands in the middle of the lab-workshop space? Guess we are.
"I'm Rocky," he finally introduces himself. He has a hint of an accent, something lilting, melodic. I can't really place it.
"Rocky," I repeat, slowly. "Like the movies?"
"No," Rocky deadpans, giving me a look like I'm stupid. "Like the rocks."

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 easy when the only people Stratt had to manage were adults. There are many that act like children, of course, but they are, ultimately, still adults who can deal with disappointment and difficult circumstances well enough that she doesn't have to feel guilty about it. A six year old child, on the other hand—
She was not prepared for this.
Or: PHM AU where everything's the same but Grace is a single dad.
