    NOTE: All fics here contain fictionalized versions of my perception of actual people - basically characterizations based off of how I perceive them. This is not meant to be a serious portrayal, nor an accurate depiction. These are real people deserving of respect, especially to their privacy and real lives. If any real person who a character is based off of in these fics announces they are not comfortable with any portrayal of themself in written works please let me know and the fic containing them will be taken down or edited accordingly. Thank you!

    Summary

    The humans threw Grace away. Grace, who worked so hard to save them, who came back for Rocky when he realized the taomoeba would eat through Rocky's ship. Grace, who gave up his chance to go home to save Erid too.

    And then Rocky finds out exactly how Grace ended up in space.

    They're not giving him back now. Grace will always have a place on Erid where he's beloved and cherished the way he should be, even if it takes Grace a while to believe he's worth that. Rocky may or may not have plans to fix up the Hail Mary for the trip back anyways- there were a few things they wanted to say directly to Stratt's face.

    Summary

    The alien put its top two legs together and… started… doing… something.

    Simon felt like his mind was not computing. He just couldn't, for some reason, recognize what he saw. It was not a vision issue. His eye was fine. It was just the why where it all fell apart.

    Okay, maybe those… rhythmic movements and limb waving left and right were some kind of an aggressive display. Maybe the rock was taunting him. Or showing off its guns.

    The alien proceeded to… gyrate its hips at him, which, well, alright. Probably taunting.

    ***

    A hiccup on the way to Erid hurls the Hail Mary away from her course. Now the space around them is starless, the radio comes to life with a female voice, and there is a single visible moon that might just be the door out of this mess. Up is down, past is future, the Light is in the deepest darkness, and death is never the end.

    In so many words, Grace and Rocky (and Simon) have to save the stars one more time.

    Summary

    Grace is unprepared for the level of love that all of Erid seemed to have for him. It was vaguely terrifying, but also.... nice? To be cared for. To be wanted.

    It gets worse when they find out the circumstances of him ending up on the Hail Mary.

    When his declining health necessitates a trip back to Earth, he is faced with a planet that loves him so fiercely and wonderfully that it finally starts to break through his crippling lack of self worth and bloom into something incredible.

    And Earth? Earth has to deal with an Erid that is polite, protective, and most of all, pissed.
