    Summary

    Dr. Grace is in for a long haul on the way to planet Erid. Unwilling to enter another coma to preserve his own mental health, he plans to spend four concious years aboard the Hail Mary for Rocky's sake. But as anxiety and hopelessness surrounding Grace's past shortcomings and his uncertain fate set in, it's going to take a lot to pull him through.

    Maybe a certain alien friend can help, if Grace would let him.

    (Based on both book and movie canon, mostly book. Updates frequent but unscheduled.)

    Summary

    The image of blood spreading across white ice is burned into Shane's mind. So is the way Ilya Rozanov looked at him across a hundredth faceoff—sharp, challenging, alive.

    Now Ilya needs a place to recover, and Shane needs to stop having nightmares. It's practical. Convenient.
    It's also the most dangerous thing Shane's ever done.

    Because you can't feed someone smoothies, wash their hair, and watch them nearly die (twice) without catching feelings. And Shane's been running from those feelings since 2010.

    Summary

    His mother’s eyes darken with weariness Shane recognizes instinctually, a grief separate but not wholly unlike his own. A tear makes its way down her cheek, but Shane’s stay put, stubborn, cradled in his lashline like if he doesn’t cry, maybe none of this is as bad as he thinks it is.

    “Just—I just have to ask,” she says. Her voice lowers to a whisper, that ever-steady corner of her mouth wavering as her palm envelopes his cheek. “How long have you been hurting?”

    My whole life, probably, Shane thinks. I'm sorry. I just didn’t know.

    --

    [Or: Shane learns that skill, passion, and meticulous control aren't necessarily immunity, and that rest isn't something he's owed so much as he has to carve out for himself; sometimes with a whisper, sometimes with his pride on the line, sometimes on his hands and knees. And still, regardless, despite—he refuses to give up on this either, even if this time it means believing in himself instead of familiar schedules or rituals. Even if it means his whole life has to change to do it.

    Even if it means having to believe that he's worth that much in the first place.]
