    Summary

    "Calm down, calm down. Whatever is the matter? You've returned much earlier than you said you would."

    Rocky hums loudly before straightening its body up, legs all standing straight. I chuckle quietly at the action.

    "Grace! Grace is-!" It whistles harshly again, pushing all the air from its vents before starting again. "Adrian overfeed Grace." It dips its carapace low again as it thuds its rear leg against the ground. Very judgemental.

    Summary

    Disaster strikes the Hail Mary on its way back to Earth. The taumoeba escape their breeding tanks, and make it to the fuel lines. Stranded in space just outside the Tau Ceti system, Dr Ryland Grace can't do anything. He can't go save Rocky, he can't go save Earth. Exhausted, out of options, and distraught, he fills the ship with nitrogen, and takes his final breath.
    Next thing he knows, his eyes flutter open in his San Francisco apartment. It's a year before ArcLight touches down on Earth, but he remembers the Petrova Task Force.
    He's not the only one.

    OR: Time-Travel Fix-It AU but it's not just Grace who came back in time.

    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

    Driver likes Colt. It’s sort of despite himself. Colt is loud, and talkative, and free with his touches. Normally– especially in combination– these are all traits Driver hates to have directed at his person.

    (Driver’s hearing a human heartbeat. He didn’t know it could sound like that, from this close).

    Still, Colt becomes something special to Driver’s life one unremarkable day on set.

     

    Or, Driver gets his first proper hug from his coworker.

    (Edit 05/30: Increased chapter count from 2 to 3.)

    Summary

    Driver/Ryland Grace. adjacent to the coltlandgentry stuff.

    Driver leaves LA after the events of Drive(2011), emotionally and physically bleeding from wounds he wasn’t sure he would survive. He is as lucky as Shannon was unlucky, however, in that he is on a collision course with the Grace family.

    Colt saved him from bleeding out on the side of the road, and Driver finds himself in San Francisco with no plans in place for his future. In SF he becomes neighbors with Ryland Grace, who catches his curiosity.

    Summary

    A little over thirteen years after the Hail Mary launch, Eva Stratt is released from prison to assist the world’s bickering space agencies after a junior NASA technician spots an unidentified object near the orbit of Neptune. It appears to be on a direct collision course with Earth, and is moving so quickly it does not appear to be affected by any local gravitational forces, not even that of Sol. Oh, and one more thing—it seems to be slowing down.

    OR

    Captain Dr. Ryland Grace pilots the Hail Mary home long before (and long, long after) its mission is supposed to be complete. In their desperate venture beyond their solar system, humanity may have just accidentally unlocked a new chapter in interstellar physics.

    Summary

    Ever since the fumbling little sunspot first wandered into his garage, Driver has been playing it safe. He’s meticulous, he’s calculated, and he’s patient. He makes sure Grace stays within his orbit, one carefully orchestrated repair at a time. It’s an everyday dance of grease, sunlight, and quiet observation. He can be slow, he can be gentle, and he can be good—because as long as Grace is near, he has all the time in the world to wait.

    or "Statistical Fallacy (N=1)
    or "Mimicking you Mimicking Me"
    or "oopsie doopsie absolutely nobody here is a trained diplomat lol"

    or the Erid homecoming keeps having more issues arise. Human and Eridian relations are off to a, pardon the pun, rocky start. And Grace doesn't know why, but he is a little paranoid that Rocky somehow did it on purpose.

    Hopefully Earth gets his updated information on communicating with Eridians before they decide to send someone else. Otherwise it'll probably be pretty embarrassing for everyone.

    A little grey arm with the tiniest claw, sticking out of the left most egg. The arm is waving slowly, as if saying “Hello, a little help here?”

    “They gave us like, four different apartment complexes to choose from.” Claire stabs her fork into her lasagna again, scoops up another bite, but waits to put it in her mouth. “I don't think you picked the place one of your brothers lives in on accident.”

    Courtland blinks once, the only tell that he's been caught off guard.

    Or, Courtland's introduction back into his younger brothers' lives is...not the smoothest of rides.

    Summary

    So I can't die.

    I was in undergrad when I finally couldn't deny it any more. I'd been hit by a car and walked it off with barely a scratch. Though, really, "can't die" was a wild oversimplification of something I still didn't fully understand.

     

    Aka Grace remembers that he's literally indestructible at the worst possible moment. This complicates things.

    Summary

    I lived with this hunger long before the Hail Mary. This is nothing new. I’m fine.

    Right up until Rocky asks another question.

    “When last time you touch other human person skin, question?”

    Oh. Oh no. “When I… a few days after I first woke up here.”

    Rocky starts to relax for a split second, but then tightens when something occurs to him.

    “Grace crewmates dead when you wake up. You said this, statement. You not even know your own name, remember nothing, see dead bodies, confirm?”

    I nod, because if I open my mouth I will gag.

    “When last time Grace touch ALIVE human person, question.”

    I swallow thickly. I don’t answer aloud because I know Rocky can hear the hitch in my breath. My stomach churns with fresh bile. He senses my vital signs tick over into stress patterns and goes very, very still again.

    “Grace. When last time, question.”

    I clench my jaw so hard my temples ache, and beg him with my eyes to just stop.

    “Grace. Please say not when… when Evil Stratt humans put you to sleep.”

    I can taste grass.

    ---

    AKA: Grace starves for more than just food on the journey to Erid.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    "We will sing for you and for Grace until the sky sings back. You will hear us from the stars."

    How sweet. How absolutely gutting to watch Rocky run up against so many problems he cannot fix, but just a little more time. A little extra Grace.

    (Also I'm always so in love with Grace getting to run pell mell once he gets the biodome and the sinking dreadful buildup beforehand turned that into such a lovely payoff.)
