    Summary

    “Please,” he whispers, hoping the eel can’t hear him, “please, I want to live. I just want to live, I don’t want to die. Please don’t let me die.”

    The turning of a new eye upon him feels as if he’s been scrubbed raw suddenly, the truth of him pulled from the dark places he’d made to hide it away as something answers him.

    “What would you do if you were to live, little star?”

    OR

    Simon is rescued at the last minute by *something* and dropped onboard the Hail Mary at quite possibly the worst time. Ryland Grace is fresh off a horrible fishing trip and his best friend is comatose. As the most injured and broken versions of themselves, they meet.

    Summary

    At first, there was nothing but static. For a few seconds, which might've been the longest seconds Grace had ever experienced, there was no comprehensible sound outside of the fuzzy feedback of an unstable connection. Grace furrowed his brow, trying desperately to make out something, anything at all.

    Little by little, the signal cleared up enough to where he could just start to make out the sound of something...?

    No.

    Someone... Singing?

    His heart rattled in his chest as the singing continued, suddenly keenly aware that he probably needed to say something. It'd been so, so long-

    "Uh- Hello?"

    Almost immediately, the singing stopped. Grace found himself missing it. Just a little bit. He stood with bated breath, hoping, praying that he hadn't scared the voice off. A clatter of something falling on the ground, heavy, clumsy thuds that sounded like heavy boots hitting metal, static...

    Grace tried again. "Hello? Is anyone there?"

    Then, clear as day,

    'Hello...? Are.. who... who are you?'

    (This story happens slightly before the events of Iron Lung, shortly after PHM)

    Summary

    "Whoaaaa" Grace couldn't help but rush out, like a little kid seeing the museum for the first time. Endless fascination for everything he didn't understand as it was demonstrated right before his eyes.

     

    Also like a little kid, Grace got antsy after the first few seconds.

     

    "How long is this supposed to take?" Grace ignored how whiney he sounded as he asked. It didn't stop him from tacking on a childish; "Ugh!"

     

    "Collector should be here soon," Rocky responded at the same time the impact of the collector's collision with the winch forced another sound out of Grace.

     

    "Got it, its here!" Grace cheered, and he moved towards the winch now that the xenonite chain was no longer moving at approximately three times the speed of sound.

     

    "Amaze! Amaze! Amaze!"

     

    Something else hit the ship.

     

    — or; a story in which the light Simon dies for is the same one that guides the Hail Mary as they go fishing

    Summary

    Simon backs up against the wall before ripping the IV from his arm, brandishing the needle in his hand. “Who are you? Where am I? What did you put in me?”

    “My name is Ryland Grace. You’re on a ship called The Hail Mary. We got a distress signal and I found you floating in the blood ocean out there. You were really badly injured so we tried to patch you up.” Ryland takes a step towards him but he presses himself further against the wall, holding the needle out to try and defend himself.

    “How do I know this isn’t all just a hallucination? That you’re not that monster trying to trick me again?”

    OR

    While Grace & Rocky are on their way to Erid, The Mary picks up a distress signal from a nearby moon that’s surrounded by darkness. What Grace doesn’t expect to find is a human-like man named Simon floating in the moon's blood-filled ocean.

    Summary

    The journey to Erid was long and tedious, despite Rocky's best efforts to abate the boredom, four years with only a bossy rock for company is enough to drive anyone insane.

    Upon arrival, sick and malnourished, Grace expects to be met with confusion and fear from the eridians, demands for explanations, and a long and drawn-out process to create living conditions for him.

    What he does not expect to find is another human, comfortably living at the eridians' best recreation of an apple orchard and fiercely attached to Rocky’s mate, Adrian.

    Summary

    “Is the alien…dangerous?” he asks slowly.

    “No! No, no he’s my friend, he’s - uh, well, the engineer of the Hail Mary,” says Grace. “Look, I’m just saying that - he’s gonna wake up soon, and we don’t need to tell him about how our first meeting went. We can gloss over the whole ‘tackle me to the ground and scare the daylights out of me’ thing. I won’t tell if you won’t.”

    Simon is 90% sure this is going to come back to bite him in the form of blackmail but he nods anyways, because it sure as hell sounds like Grace is implying Simon will be allowed to stay a while longer.

     

    Rocky sleeps through the absolute shitshow that is Simon and Grace’s first meeting. It’s probably for the best.
    Despite it all, it will be the start of beautiful friendship.

    Summary

    "So he's really paralyzed?" Simon asks.

    "Oh? Uh, yeah." Grace turns back to Rocky's sleeping form and gestures broadly at him.

    Rocky is curled at the bottom of his tunnel, legs at his sides, body resting on the ground.

    Simon nods, looking uncomfortable. "So he won't interrupt."

    "Nah, he can't, he's– huh?" Grace fumbles for his glasses in earnest now. His heart rate picks up, but he's sort of hoping he's wildly misinterpreting what he just heard.

    "Sit back down." Simon growls as Grace goes to stand up.

    Slowly, Grace sits back down on the floor. He looks Simon over again and realizes, with a panicked flutter in his stomach that quickly spreads through his limbs like ice water, that Simon is holding a razor blade.

    ***

    Grace & Rocky decide to go check out an SOS call. It could have gone better. (Trust me, eventual codependent friendship all around.)

    Summary

    The Blood Eel only knows pain and isolation in its world. Others have come searching for answers, only to learn in the end that death is the only one that matters. But then it meets Simon.

    Hail Mary, full of Grace

    The Blood Eel searches the cosmos and comes across The Hail Mary, occupied by Ryland Grace, and it decides this is what Simon was asking for. So it obliges.

    What follows is the story of two lost souls coming together in a cosmic event, learning together to live, to love, to be happy. All while The Blood Eel looks on, insuring it continues to learn, one way or another.

    Summary

    “Nope–no you have to keep the pressure on that, Colt–” Jody grabbed his hand, guided it back upward, glancing over his shoulder to see what he was looking at.

    There wasn’t anything of note behind him, just the pavement and a laughing couple stumbling their way around the corner.

    Was he concussed?

    “I’m not Colt,” Colt said, interrupting Jody’s thoughts. He cocked his head to the side, frowned, tried to lower his hand for the third time like he’d already forgotten what he was supposed to be doing. “I’m trying–I need to find Colt. M’not him.”

    Oh, yeah, he was definitely fucking concussed.

     

    (Ryland is concussed, Colt is framed for murder and concussed, and Jody is definitively lost in all the sauce because someone forgot to tell her that Colt has a twin brother.)

    Summary

    Jon was no longer there. But had he really left? Is he still himself? Why does everyone behave differently? What if it’s just another trick? What if he didn’t leave at all—and it is he who has changed?

    Tim was angry. And he had a reason to be. But what becomes of that anger when his boss suddenly collapses through the yellow door onto a cold archival floor, broken and unrecognizable? How can anyone be angry at someone so shattered, so utterly lost?


    Does it bother you, too—Dear Reader—how the whole kidnapping was brushed aside?
    Join me on this journey through hell and a long, painful path of self-rediscovery. What if survival demands more than just escaping?

    Summary

    “You’re hurt,” she whispered. “I’m sorry, I don’t have anything for healing with me… I thought I could portal us back to the keep but I guess I messed it up.”
    “Who-“ Edmund swallowed, trying again. “Who are you?”
    “I’m C-“ the girl stopped, frowning. “…Call me Fiona,” she settled on, and Edmund nodded. “What about you?”
    “Edmund,” he offered. “I- you killed Ginarrbrik,”

    Or:
    Ciri’s powers act up again, portalling her into the camp of the White Witch, where she meets a boy she decides she has to save.
    Edmund just watched a girl randomly appear in front of him, kill the dwarf that had been torturing him, and then portal them both somewhere else he doesn’t recognize. He’s quite sure this is the most miserable he’s ever been in his life. And who exactly is this ‘White Wolf’ he’s hearing about?

    Summary

    “No, no, no! What the fuck?!” His mirror shrieked, kicking a clump of grave dirt at Kingsley, who batted it away with a scowl. “Get away from me! Yasha?! Shit! Beau?! What's happening?!”
    Kingsley swayed. Oh. “Hells,” he whispered. “You're…”
    “Shut up!” His reflection hissed, eyes huge with wild fear like a cornered animal. “Don't talk! Don't–”
    “Mollymauk Tealeaf. Molly. Calm down.” A funny thing to say, given that he was also panicking.

    When Kingsley unwittingly becomes entangled in matters beyond his understanding, he finds himself soul-bound to a very much alive Mollymauk Tealeaf. Together, they navigate their unusual situation and the changes the years have brought.

    Summary

    “I am not the only child you and Mother had together. I have a twin. Two years before Mother brought me here we were split up, and sent on different missions by Grandfather. I never saw him again after that, but Mother told me his mission was intended to take years to complete.”

    “What’s his name?” Bruce asks quietly. Damian seems to study him for a moment before replying.

    “His name is Danyal, and he is formidable."

    Summary

    Lucien is defeated, Mollymauk gets a second chance and (gradually) his memories back. It's not easy to find yourself having missed so much. Being surrounded by the people who love you helps.

    I'm bad at summaries, but basically, as much as I respect Tal's decisions about his characters, I think it would make for a more interesting story in terms of identity, love and all kinds of nuanced relationship beats if Kingsley didn't pop up. This is an attempt at it.

    Summary

    5 times the Batfam make assumptions about Percy Jackson with only the available information, and the one time they learned the truth.

    Assumption 1: Percy is Bruce’s lovechild. (Jason) (That one was corrected rather quickly)
    Assumption 2: Percy is a terrorist. (Steph) (It was a joke until it wasn't)
    Assumption 3: Percy is an assassin. (Damien) (No one is surprised by that)
    Assumption 4: Percy is in a cult. (Tim) (He has proof)
    Assumption 5: Percy has died and been brought back using the Lazarus Pit. (Jason) (And he's not happy about it)

    And Dick is the one they all use as a sounding board and he doesn't know how to respond.

    Chapters 1-11 are the main story. Chapter 12 on are bonus chapters that bring me joy. Technically complete, but there may be more bonus chapters as the muse strikes because I love this world.
