Summary
The intruder enters the kitchen slowly, limbs held low to the ground. Their carapace tilts from side to side as they draw near, fixing their auricles on me.
The xenosuit they have on looks cobbled together, almost experimental. It’s not see-through like my team’s suits are. It wasn’t designed with my light detectors in mind. Instead, it’s dark and opaque, and not at all helping to dispel the impression of a masked burglar in my home.
I’ve never seen that body language in person before, but I understand it on an instinctual level. Eridians are the apex predators of their planet. It’s a hunting stance, and I am the prey.
or: Grace experiences a home invasion on Erid.

Bookmarker's Notes
What a gut punch of a last line. Absolutely heart-wrenching.
A succinct, but surprisingly deep one-shot. The author's notes explaining behaviour and in-world context is really engaging and made this story so much more interesting, in my opinion. It's also a nice touch(that I don't see too often), that Grace's trauma doesn't solely encompass either the Tau-Ceti crushing incident or his drugging and abduction on Earth, but both. Buddy's been through the wringer, understatement.
Also! The first author's note gave me a good laugh. I wonder how that goes-- though nothing's going to happen, probably. Haha. It's frankly amazing. Maybe i should consider doing that with some other stuff too.
Once again, terribly evocative final line. Especially with the build-up and characterisation-- all that history put into context. Gotta love it. I really want to make fanart now.
Thank you for the story! ^^

Summary
“Not so strange,” Rocky says mildly. “Back in not-so-distant past Eridian eat other Eridian all the time. Top of food chain. After natural disaster, war, not so much else to eat. Ecosystem delicate, especially if carnivore, especially if big. 🎵🎶 good thing to have to fall back on.”
“Cannibalism,” I manage to get out.
“New word. Cannibalism.”

Cultural cannibalism! My second favorite after cannibalism(gen)!
I have had this exact same thought before ngl, like if we were in a zombie apocalypse and my friend really likes the idea of living, I'm willing to take one for the team and self-euthanise. It really is more a question of culture than anything, to be honest. I do harbour less of a revulsion towards the idea of cannibalism than the average individual, but I'm pretty sure that's only because "the body is a body" and all that.
Anyway, it's really sweet how Rocky is willing to lose three limbs just to keep Grace alive. It's wonderful. Same on Grace's end, too, he's willing to let Rocky eat him so they can be together. Cute!
Thank you for the story! ^^

Summary
Grace tries copying the tones.
Rocky hums. “Close. Skip first note.”
“Why? You always include that.”
“This means… of Rocky, possessive. Of the speaker.”
“My.”
“Correct. But only for names.”
“So you’re calling me…?”
Rocky repeats the word: “My Grace. Yes.”

Intertwined soul mates. It's adorable. Sometimes these language discussions give me a jolt in the cerebrum-- like, language is so strange and beautiful, and I can't believe English is this limited, but that's what writing a story is for, ain't it?
A decent dash of love on my two favorite little buggers. Basically just a story about a love confession, through puzzling out linguistics.
Thank you for the fic! ^^

Conflict Resolution by Anonymous

Summary
It's been a full year of living in close quarters on the Hail Mary. Grace was bound to mess up eventually.
If Grace was still on Earth, he would have plenty of options for places to go. A quiet park, maybe a movie theater, a walk on the beach. Something like that. As it is, stuck on the Hail Mary, he just doesn’t have that many options of places to go after a fight with his roommate.

Highkey wish I was like that too. I'm known for being stubborn-- and when it comes to my standards of living/cleanliness, the less said the better. I mean, I'm working on being more considerate and contributive, but it's hard. Sometimes I really am sorry, you know? And I'll feel guilty, and I'll give 'em a gift to make up, and I'll go into a whole big mental spiral about it. Sometimes it's like there's this cinder block in my head, cutting off all those pathways to me being a better person. I get so stuck in my head, and I know I am, but I can't do anything about it except bang on the bars.
Late night rambling. Gotta love it.
Good story about conflict resolution. Exactly what it says on the tin, with a big heap of emotional compromise, compassion and maturity. Self reflection and such introspective things. Addresses some things Andy Weir didn't. Admittedly, there are many things Andy Weir stays intentionally obtuse to cause of his privilege, but hey.
Thank you for the story! <3

"地球需要她，但不需要我了。‘’
It's melancholic how everyone needs a Hail Mary only in the throes of desperation. Outside of that, who would ever say they require the Grace of God? It's not entirely untrue, which is what makes it sadder, in my opinion.A decent one-shot on post-canon. Grace refusing life-extending technology is interesting. Honestly considering Grace, a proposal like that could go both ways. Simple and bittersweet-- though I guess all life is, isn't it?
Thank you for the story! 谢谢您！<3
