Summary
Three years after the probes carrying Taumoeba and Dr. Ryland Grace's final message arrive on Earth, humanity launches an interstellar spaceship with a brand new mission. Thirty-six crew members (including two graduates of a certain San Franciscan junior high school) travel to the star 40-Eridani to make friendly contact with the Eridians and bring them the alien life form from Tau Ceti-E that can save their star if Dr. Grace's sacrifice failed.
Grace, now fifty-seven years old, is just trying to balance his life as a teacher while no longer being the only human on the planet anymore. It's a big adjustment, but Rocky and the Terra's Grace crew are going to make sure he's well taken care of.

"Grace sad, not good. I fix."
"… Um. How?" I ask. "Oh, God, please don't make me a human-shaped robot to hug. That would be so creepy."
"No robot," Rocky promises.
(Or: Grace was touch-starved even before he left Earth. Rocky attempts to fix.)

Seal the urge which ensues with brass wire by Lure3808

Summary
The Hail Mary would only give it's crew their methods of execution after the mission had been completed and the Beetles sent to earth. A precaution. Meant to ensure they would die only after the mission was complete.
The Beetles left for Earth over a year ago. The ship's mission, as defined in it's programming, was completed. I had considering trying to reprogram it for considering the mission done after we had reached Erid, but the risks of breaking something was deemed too high.

Grace forgets that most humans don't speak in a mish-mash of English and Eridian and Simon has a slightly different misunderstanding than the main one I've seen.

I Thought Love was a Kind of Emptiness by Sanguine_Melody

Summary
Grace’s short history of relationships taught him that maybe he was just childish. Maybe he just— maybe he didn’t want a relationship. Maybe he just wanted a best friend who wouldn't leave him when they got married. That he was the one that was the problem.
Adults had sex. That was a fact of life. They fell in love and love meant sex and that was just how it was. If you didn’t want to have sex then you weren’t really in love. Sure sex didn’t equate to love— people had flings all the time— but romance and sex were the kind of things that went together. So Grace had just— accepted the words of his girlfriends. That maybe he just never actually loved them the way he thought he did. Maybe he just liked them and tied the thought of romance to it so that he could monopolize their time. That all just came together so maybe he actually was just leading these women on. All of them gave him everything he needed in a relationship but he’d never been able to be what they needed. Wasn’t that selfish? Wasn’t that cruel?
Alternatively: Grace is alloromantic asexual. This is traumatizing in many ways. Not for Rocky though. Rocky's perfectly okay with being in love and never having sex.

Summary
"Mr. Grace usually avoids the courtyard at home time. He thinks none of the students know, but they do. He’s predictable. Cool, but predictable. So, when he strides out of his class with all his belongings in his hands instead of his bag, followed by a mean-looking woman in a suit, people notice."
Or: What was it like for the staff and students at Grover Cleveland Middle School when a bunch of weirdos in suits came searching for Mr. Grace?

Summary
Grace didn't have much of anything these days. Less appetite, less strength, less of whatever it was that made a person reach for a disgusting coma food slurry bag and drink it down because it was necessary to live and do it all over again tomorrow because tomorrow existed and had things in it worth being alive for.
Or - Grace's mental health deteriorates on the journey to Erid.

Summary
Grace is dying. He's been dying half this trip. There's no point in ignoring it, though he and Rocky try to anyway. One particularly bad day, he finds he can't shake the thought of Yao's gun, hidden away down in storage and calling to him.

"There's a gun on the ship.
A gun on the ship for one very specific reason. A reason that Grace has spent years running away from, but one that keeps chasing after him. "Bookmarked by AnonymousContrivance

Summary
The file I’ve found is named: Grace Don't Look Until Beetles Launched
Creepy. Ominous, even. There’s a little code attached to the file that hides it from a system search. The only way I could have found it was an accident.
I open the file and a video log pops up. The play button blinks mockingly. The date at the corner of the log is two years before I first woke up on the Hail Mary. It would have been recorded when I was deep in coma-sleep. When everyone on board should have been deep in coma-sleep.
Ilyukhina’s slightly pixelated visage is sprawled across a pilot chair and she’s mid-chew on a twizzler.

Summary
“The man is a pariah in his field. If you’d read his post-doctoral thesis,” Vale chuckles and shakes his head. “He’s not what I’d call ‘leadership material,’ in any case.”
“Dr. Grace is very well respected on this ship, Friedrich,” Dr. Cohen says with a hint of reproach. “While you’re here, perhaps it is best not to say such things in polite company.”
Vale rolls his eyes, but lets the subject drop with a muttered, “Really, what could Grace do to me?”
The astrophysics team experiences a collective realization: Friedrich Vale might be a complete idiot, actually.
-
Or, Friedrich Vale is the newest scientist on Stratt's Vat. Friedrich Vale, for whatever reason, does not like Dr. Ryland Grace. Friedrich Vale is about to have a VERY bad time.
Featuring the crew of Stratt's Vat being totally prepared to throw a bitch overboard if they so much as give Dr. Grace a dirty look, because he's too nice to do it himself.Series

Summary
Dr. Herrick is chatting up Grace in the corner. Or at least, he’s trying to. Grace is mostly avoiding eye contact, glancing across the room every few seconds towards particularly lively conversations, or looking down at his pack of sour skittles.
Usually, Stratt doesn’t spend much time down here in the bar with the rest of the crew—she’s busy, and she doesn’t particularly wish to soften her reputation. But she has mindless emails to answer tonight, and anyway, she’s been wanting to see how Grace interacts with the others. She’s been curious.
~~~
Stratt witnesses one of her crew corner Grace in a dark hallway. She intervenes.

"I'll keep you updated. In the meantime, go back to sleep. When you need to worry, I'll tell you."
"Heh." Ryland ran his hand down his face. "It's terrible you know that it actually makes me feel better. What would I do without you?"
"Explode at a colleague at a conference and get expelled from academia and become a middle school teacher." Eva said, promptly.
"Wow, you've thought about that way too hard." Ryland laughed. "Middle schoolers might not vape in class, though. Maybe I should switch."
"Let's not joke."
