    Summary

    Ten years in the future, Rick C-137 finally chooses to let himself die. It hurts, but everyone understands. Well, everyone but Morty. Morty's not doing well. Morty's not doing well at all.

    He's so unwell, in fact, that he'd do anything to go on one last adventure with his grandpa.

    Anything.

    (alternatively: Morty downs the long island iced tea of science fiction, and Evil Morty is rushing to make sure he doesn't kill himself in the process.)

    Summary

    Where there is a will, there is a way. And there is definitely a way to un-corrupt computer files, and therefore it should definitely be possible to unabstract people. Thus, with Caine's help, the gang construct a plan to start unabstracting people one by one to build the Circus into a large community, starting with Jax. While Kinger and Caine work through the code at a console, Pomni goes back into Jax's mindscape to help him address and unpack his maladaptive thought patterns. Not long thereafter, Jax is tasked with something only he can do— replicating the process on Ribbit. We watch this play out concurrently in present-day sequences of Jax's foray into Ribbit's mindscape (written in present tense) and Pomni's second visit with Jax (written in past tense), unraveling the threads of two troubled psyches by following the trail left by Jax's mistakes.

    Summary

    "Come on Carl, just one thing! Lokken just got her future memories! Why can't I just know one little thing." Ryland was not above whining to get what he wanted. Everyone kept acting weird once they got the time travel memories! The only explanation was that it had to do with the Hail Mary. He wanted to know why.

    "You know the project is going to succeed. Is that not enough." Carl, the traitor, raised an eyebrow like he wasn't affected by Ryland's pleas.

    "Ok but what do they find? What are the astronauts going to find up there that we can't replicate?" Ryland asked for the umpteenth time. They were all so tight lipped about it! If they already had the answer why don't they just implement it now, why wait almost thirty years?

    Carl just laughed, again, like he always did. "You know, you'd already know that if you remembered it," he teased.

    Ryland huffed. Fine then! "When I get my own time-travel memories I wont tell you everything I know, see how you like it!"

    Weirdly - It was never anything normal with these people! - Carl just smiled, but it didn't reach his eyes. "I can't wait."

    OR

    The Petrova Task Force travel back in time one after the other. They forgot to invite Ryland.

    Summary

    Ryland Grace died.
    He died after failing to turn on the centrifuge in time, and took Rocky with him. He wakes up the morning he is to be approached by Eva Stratt.
    Centuries pass. The failure of the Hail Mary has doomed humanity. Simon fails in obtaining the black box and bringing it to safety. He is given a second chance to save things, and is determined to stop the coward of a man named Ryland Grace from sabotaging the mission meant to save humanity.
    Rocky wakes up only a couple years before he is to be sent on a mission to Tau Ceti. He is willing to do anything it takes to get back to Grace, even if it means explaining concepts to his team that he has no business knowing about.

    Summary

    One second Grace was watching the Hail Mary plummet towards Adrian, screaming to Rocky over the sound of the alarms, the next he was sitting in a conference room surrounded by… Eridians?? And he had five limbs. Why did he have five limbs? That was way too many.
