    Summary

    Ryland Grace was Eva Stratt’s first choice for mission science specialist aboard the Hail Mary. He declined, and the astrophage explosion never happened, so Martin DuBois was sent to Tau Ceti. He died in a coma along with Yáo and Ilyukhina. Simon was born on Earth fourteen years after Ryland Grace. Instead of the COI, the latter half of his childhood was marred by the beginnings of the astrophage crisis.

    Fourteen years after the launch of the Hail Mary, a beetle returns to Earth. Over a decade earlier than should have been physically possible. The telemetry reveals that all three members of the crew died. So who sent it back, and why? Grace and Simon work alongside a team of scientists to see if the Earth’s Hail Mary pass can still be salvaged.

    (Absolutely no knowledge of Iron Lung or Arrival is needed to enjoy this fic - I just borrowed a character from each. This is an AU of Project Hail Mary in a universe I'm calling the "Penpal Verse," for reasons which should become apparent.)

    Summary

    Grace’s importance dawns on her on a normal Wednesday, during a normal meeting. It dawns with something so gruesome and feral she can only describe it as fear.

    That night is when the dreams begin.

    | or: Eva Stratt, Ryland Grace, and the breathtaking (queerplatonic) love they have for each other. (But is it enough?)

    Summary

    A series of somewhat lengthy one-shots centered around the idea that Jordie (miraculously) is resurrected and shows up in Ketterdam post Crooked Kingdom.
    NO changes to Kaz's or any of the other crow's backstories.

    This series is not marked as complete mostly bc I'm probably going to keep adding to it whenever I'm in the mood, and the fact that each installment is a completed story.
