Summary
'This won’t be so bad,' she told herself, quelling a sudden feeling of guilt. 'Surely, they won’t miss me so badly, even if I’m gone for quite some time.' The suitcase weighed on her enthusiasm, for more reasons than one—she didn’t want to leave, not really. After all, she had a family, here. Wasn’t that enough?
Shouldn’t it be?
Snorkmaiden leaves Moominvalley. The world outside isn't at all how she remembers it.

Summary
Seasons change, usually faster than people do.
As the years pass on, Snufkin still travels, just as Moomin still waits for his return. That's how it is, after all- how it's always been. And so long as Snufkin doesn't stare too hard, things don't have to get more complicated than they already have.
(Now with illustrations!)

Summary
"Cell," he says. "My crew have problem with cells. Many many cells die. Not infection. Not injury. No reason. But not me. Never me. Why, question? I not know."
*** *** ***
From a planet orbiting the fading Eridani 40, a crew of twenty-three Eridians board a ship, and start the long journey towards the blazing star Tau Ceti, hoping to find the solution to their dying star, thereby saving their world from extinction. They are the best and brightest on their planet, and while they are nervous, hope and camaraderie are high.
And then, one by one, and then all at once, they begin to sicken.
Except for one.

Summary
It's been years since Doctor Ryland Grace saved Erid and Earth. He is content with his life, happy just to teach the next generation of Eridians and have the occasional game night with Rocky and Adrian in his dome. For the most part, nothing changes.
And that's the problem. Shouldn't Grace, y'know...age? When Rocky indicates that he should be sixty human years old by now, Grace can't reconcile the young face in the mirror with the time that his friend has religiously kept.
Things get more complicated when another undoubtedly human ship shows up at the edge of the 40 Eridani system. Suddenly Grace is playing ambassador between the two species, and tensions are rising between them. Will this be a successful second contact, or is the peaceful life Grace just wants to live too much to ask for?

The Apparent Magnitude of a Patron Saint by MedsestraStellarum

Summary
Ryland Grace is the first human to ever live on an exoplanet, and this was not an eventuation that was planned for.
This post-canon fic follows the teething issues of life on Erid: alien engineering and mechanics, the eventual sequelae of malnutrition, and the psychological effects of being very, very far from human touch.
Despite all this, Dr. Grace might just be the only human alive who feels more at home in the company of aliens than he ever did on Earth.
No-one is quite sure what to do with that.

Summary
It’s gonna be a long trip.
When I finally found Rocky, stranded in the middle of nowhere, I thought I was going to die. I thought I was going to slowly starve to death. But when I banged on the Blip-A’s hull and suddenly heard Rocky's voice through the radio, it was the best moment of my life.
But, you know…. I am still, actually, going to starve to death. I hate it when reality sets in.
On the long trip to Erid, Rocky and Grace discover music together. But for Grace, the road gets harder and harder.
