    Summary

    A series of shorts.

    Grace and Rocky's travels to Erid on the Hail Mary, their first visit to Earth, meeting their new crew, and adventures galore.

    This is the second in a series, can be read as a standalone but might make a bit more sense with context, this is a prequel of sorts, no set timeline.

    Summary

    “Um, hello.” Rocky lifts a hand slowly. The rock spider chitters and attempts to lift one back. But it’s tangled in wire, and the force that the alien uses to tug it free sends his body reeling backwards and thumping against the side of the tunnel. Rocky tries to keep a straight face.

    “I’ll call you Grace,” he says. “Clearly you have plenty of it.”

    ...

    Rocky wakes up in the Tau Ceti system, with his commander and science specialist dead. How's he supposed to save Earth?

    Befriend the alien scientist he runs into, of course.

    Summary

    Adrian’s below us. A beautiful swirl of greens. With a view like that, I can only stay a little mad at it with the little “almost killed us” fiasco. Unfamiliar constellations and the arm of the Milky Way fill the rest of my view. I start panning my view closer to Tau Ceti when I spot it.

    It’s another Hail Mary.

    ------

    Grace and Rocky come across a parallel duo. (Multiverse / Human!Rocky and Eridian!Grace AU.)

    Summary

    Ryland Grace, the only known sentient alien species Earth had ever encountered, is shot into space to help resolve the Astrophage problem.

    For four lonely years, he waits for his crew to wake up so that their home, whether by birth or adoption, is saved.

    None of them expect the ship orbiting Tau Ceti.

    Or its crew.

    (Earth already knew they weren't alone out there in the world. They just didn't know the details.)

    Summary

    Several years after choosing to live the rest of his life out with Rocky and Adrian, Ryland Grace's body is quietly failing under the brutal 2.12G gravity of Erid. Desperate to bridge the physical divide before Grace's time runs out, Rocky and Adrian misinterpret an old digital file of Avatar as a historical fact and secretly engineer life-like flesh and blood human "vessels" for themselves, but the sensory overload of piloting a human body changes everything Rocky understands about humans.

    And how he sees Grace.

    Summary

    The sun was being eaten.
    Little dots were eating away at our light.
    I realized in that moment this wasn’t just about me. If I didn’t figure this out or set someone on the right path to figure this out, not only would the other sun gods die, but everyone would die. Humans depended on the light of the Sun to survive. If the sun dropped too low in luminosity, the planet would freeze, and they would die. And thus, it would kill the gods. We would cease to be, with no one left. I also cannot let Helios’ light go out. He may be faded, but I am his legacy. He was the closest thing I had to an actual father. I cannot let one of the last things I have of his go out. I hugged my children and Meg tighter. I would not let them die. I cannot let them die.

     

    With the sun starting to dim, the sun gods start to show symptoms and become sick. Apollo is also falling victim to this sickness, but not as badly as the others. He vows to save everyone.

    Summary

    The Hail Mary launches with no issue. Their course is set for Tau Ceti, and hopefully, in 27 years, there’ll be an answer. But for now, Ryland Grace can relax and go back to teaching his students.
    Until it’s caught that Alpha Centauri is acting weird for a star infected with Astrophage. And Stratt still needs a science officer.

    Aka I’m shipping Grace off to Pandora. Please hear me out.

    Summary

    A few hundred years after Ryland Grace and Rocky save their stars from Astrophage and turn Ryland into an Eridian through an old Earth Project called the Avatar Program, the Eridians set out towards Earth in hopes of establishing an alliance with the aliens. On the edge of Jupiter, however, Grace ends up in a faulty escape pod and crash-lands on Pandora. Stranded on an alien world, Grace must survive until his fellow Eridians can come pick him up from the moon.
    Now, if only he could convince the residents of the moon not to kill him first.

    Summary

    It’s the year 3048, and Earth is overpopulated, under-resourced and suffocating to death under compounded centuries of abuse.

    Humanity senses they will run out of time long before they advance enough to reverse centuries of environmental pollution or learn to accelerate planetary terraformation.

    Here starts Plan A - asking the not-so-friendly neighbours for help, except, well, unfortunately, human diplomacy and Eridian diplomacy are totally incompatible.

    No biggie (medium to little whoop). A minor revision and now Plan A is - Diplomacy the shit out of these aliens using lab-grown and human-piloted Eridian bodies.
     
    Enter Ryland Grace and his unintentional Plan B - Fumbling accidentally into seducing the celebrated Eridian Engineer who saved Erid and his brilliant head scientist husband.

    Summary

    The Sokovia Accords were supposed to leash the Avengers. Instead, they gave Eva Stratt a shopping list for the end of the world.

    Fresh off the bleeding edge of Siberia, a broken Tony Stark discovers the sun is dying—and that Stratt has weaponized his stolen genetic records in an attempt to draft him for a four-year, one-way suicide mission into the dark. At the Compound alongside Dr. Ryland Grace, a rumpled junior high science teacher who just figured out how the solar parasite breeds, Tony is forced into a chaotic partnership over volatile space sludge.

    To Stratt, sacrificing three lives to save seven billion is basic math. To Tony Stark, a one-way ticket isn't a tragic necessity—it’s just a design flaw. It’s time to break the rules, rewrite the physics, and make damn sure the universe's most expensive floating coffin gets a steering wheel.

    And he, and Doctor Ryland Grace, would not be taking it.

    In Eridian years, Grace is a pebble. This is not an issue, until it is.

    Until Rocky suddenly realized that the humans did not pebble-proof their spaceship.

    ...how do you stop a pebble with the brain of an adult human teacher and scientist from wreaking havoc on their own ship?

    Summary

    The Avatar Program worked. Ryland Grace now lives in a strong Eridian body, free from the pain that once threatened to end his life.

    Part 2 of Project: Finding Grace follows Grace as he learns to walk, speak, teach, and truly live on Erid. Through a series of important moments across the years, he finds his place in the classroom once more—and even more importantly, finds his place in Rocky and Adrian’s pod.

    A cozy, happy slice-of-life story about friendship, relationships, adaptation, and building a new home on an alien world.

    Summary

    Sent to a universe without heroes after the battle at the Statue of Liberty, Peter Parker tries to move on and build a life where Spider-Man never existed. He goes to college, retires the suit, and becomes a biologist studying gene editing, evolution, and radiation. But when the sun begins to die and a miscalculation costs the lives of two astronauts right before launch, Peter agrees to take their place aboard the Hail Mary, convinced that saving this Earth might finally make up for abandoning his own.

    Ryland Grace wakes with no memory of who he is, where he is, or why he is hurtling through space. Then he finds Peter Parker.

    Summary

    Grace makes the brave and long trip back to Earth alone, but with more knowledge than humans could ever dream of.
    But home isn’t what it used to be; the people he knew and loved have long since gone. And the one left have evolved in more ways than one. Heros, Villain and Aliens are a common thing around Earth nowadays apparently.

    He learns that after the launch of the Hail Mary, Strat did in fact do her time in jail, the rest of her life technically. But even from there she still was one on the most powerful figures on Earth, bars be dammed.
    All her knowledge and power was applied to SHEILD and that’s who took over and completed the final step of the Hail Mary mission. Or so they thought until Grace comes home.

    Grace just wants to be somewhat healthy again, eat food that isn’t his cloned meat or alien poop, send intergalactic messages to Rocky and receive a reply back in a week, and go back to teaching. So that’s exactly what he does.

    Along the way however, SHEILD meddles, the Avengers assemble, and Grace? He just wants a good nap if he’s being honest.
