    Summary

    Grace leak from eyes,” Rocky leaned closer, emitting a soft, rhythmic purr that echoed concern. “Heart beat fast. Bad, bad, bad. Grace okay, question?

    And Grace didn’t want to say anything. Wasn’t planning to. It was shameful. It was cowardly. It was pathetic. But—

    But—

    “I didn’t want to go, Rocky,” Grace wheezed out, the words spilling, tearing from his throat, jagged and bloody and ripping at the seams, and it hurt— “I didn’t volunteer. I-I didn’t want to be a hero.”

    Summary

    I will fucking kill you!” Rocky roared, squeezing where his claws dug into Grace’s own. “You desecrated Grace’s memorial site—Savior of Erid Grace—and then you come into his home, an imposter, and trash his mementos-"

    “I am Grace!” Grace squeaked melodically.

    Rocky sucker punched him straight in the radiator.

    Summary

    Summary

    Ch.17 excerpt:
    “Grace wasn’t stupid, at least, he liked to think he wasn’t, not in terms of education - he’d always succeeded in academia, could rattle off facts and figures that would’ve made him an asset at trivia nights if he’d ever had enough friends to be invited to them. But what he’d placed in intelligence didn’t always equate to wisdom and social awareness was never a personal strong suit. At the end of the day, Ryland Grace was a scientist and, thus, his self-preservation instincts were non-existent. The proverbial minefield was laid out before him and, much as he had done when staring down that dark tunnel of nothingness between the Mary and the Blip-A, he threw himself into it in pursuit of knowledge with little regard for himself.”

     

    Still trying to save their respective planets, Grace and Rocky gain a new problem they need to solve: the body of an impossible human appearing in the Hail Mary's airlock.

    Simon doesn't want to die. He might just get what he asked for, but everything comes with a price.

    Or: It's not enough to want to live. You have to make a choice.

    Summary

    A week.

    That's how long it takes to delete Abel. It's... Surprisingly easy, with the AI barely having a grasp on the circus code, it doesn't take much.

    ...

     

    A week, is all it takes for him to break Caine.

    (Or, when Caine gets deleted, and the circus starts to collapse, a new AI takes Caine's place and he isn't so quick to forget that Caine absorbed him) Based on the Backup Au
