I'm Ryland Grace - AMA by sly_as_an_alpaca
Fandoms: Project Hail Mary (2026), Project Hail Mary - Andy Weir
28 Jul 2026

Summary
What the title says. About 11 years ago (from my perspective; relativity is weird) I was launched into space onboard the Hail Mary to figure out a solution to the Astrophage problem. Now I live on an alien planet I call Erid, in the 40-Eridani system. Yes, I’m actually Ryland Grace. Ask me anything.
Also, can someone please tell me if Eva Stratt is alive? And ideally send me a video of you punching her in the face? Guess that’s a long shot, but it can’t hurt to ask.
---
Grace and Rocky figure out how to connect to Earth's internet from Erid. They may not have thought this through.

Summary
Sixteen years have passed since Grace arrived on Erid and a new ship has been spotted in the 40 Eridani system, not from Erid and not from Earth. When Grace finds himself an interstellar ambassador between the Eridians and these new aliens, uncomfortable questions arise about whether Grace could ever really be considered Eridian, and whether he might be happier somewhere else...

Summary
"You know what?" Grace leaned back, shifting his weight from his knees to his heels, "This could not get any worse. I'll just have Rocky fix it when—"
"Greetings… 𝅗𝅥♪𝅘𝅥♪𝅘𝅥… This 𝅘𝅥𝅘𝅥♫… Erid ♫𝅗𝅥♪𝅘𝅥𝅗𝅥 𝅘𝅥𝅘𝅥♫... ♪𝅘𝅥♪ Please 𝅗𝅥♪♫♫ 𝅘𝅥♪𝅘𝅥𝅗𝅥 ship..."
Rocky sat in his xenonite ball, his legs tucked up and asleep in an attempt to speed up healing from an accident. Rocky is asleep. Rocky is sleeping and injured and Grace's only way of effectively communicating with unknown Eridians is broken.
"Aw shoot! This absolutely can get worse!"

Summary
Gimli had died. He was very sure of that. It had taken a good long while to be done with it, after all. Most dwarves don't live to see 300, and he was well past that. Then again, most dwarves don't grow old in the Undying Lands of the Elven Haven. But Gimli was named Elf-Friend by the Lady Galadriel, and she'd vouched for his passage. Not that his husband would've cared if she hadn't. Legolas had all but smuggled him in with unrepentant defiance.
Gimli had died. Then he'd woken up again. Not in the halls of Mahal as he expected, but rather in the halls of Ered Luin. Supposedly this was meant to be a gift of knowledge blessed upon the House of Durin. Personally Gimli thought it more likely a coincidence of timing that he happened to come back during all those silly ancient rituals. But you don't take a gifted diamond to a scale. It all seemed to work out well enough, anyway. This time around, Gimli will be going on the quest to reclaim Erebor. If all goes well, he'll even be able to save the line of Durin and reunite with his husband.
Needless to say... things do not go well.
This had been done already and done well. I'm not trying to write a masterpiece. Just want to have some fun with it.

Cal Kestis dies when Bode Akuna's blaster doesn't jam. The Force decided that it was a good opportunity to get things back into balance, by punting the Jedi Knight back to the past.
It didn't tell him to become the Mand'alor, though. That one was all on Cal, no matter how often he complains about it.

Summary
"You signed with the LA Kings?" she demanded. "What were you thinking? You know the plan. We'd go to the draft, get first pick, and go to Montreal."
"What are you even talking about?" Shane shot back. "If I got first pick, I'd go to Boston, not Montreal. And I don't even want to go to Montreal."
"Why?" Mom asked immediately. "They're one of the best teams in the league. One of the Original Six."
Something inside him snapped, and before he even realized it, he switched to Japanese.
"I don't know," he said, his voice tight. "Maybe because they're full of racists and homophobes. Do you even understand what I'm saying? Or have you become so white you forgot your own language?"

“We could’ve had everything,” Shane admitted softly.
The confession hurt more than he expected.
“A real relationship. A family. A future.” His eyes drifted toward the planes outside again before he exhaled slowly. “But dreams eventually end.” A small, tired smile pulled at his mouth. “And this is me waking up.”

“I am Grace!” Grace squeaked melodically.
Rocky sucker punched him straight in the radiator.

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.

One day, his strumming was not answered.
The silence that answered his one verse of song was horrible and grating. Incomplete. Empty. A sick, horrible fear built up inside him.
(He was going to die out here. Alone.)

"Iz huhg," Grace sniffled out, sucking back in moisture from his noze, too. There was moisture and water and everything all over the place. "Huhg meens grayt, grayt, grayt affekshun."
"Oh," he said tentatively. Another hewmin thing! He shuffled closest to the wall Grace was huhging and leaned in. "Oh. Am I doing correctly, hmm?"
"Yis," Grace sighed out, calming down. He still leaked, though.
Oh, well. Leaky hewmins were his favorite, after all.

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
It's been years since Doctor Ryland Grace saved Erid and Earth. He is content with his life, happy just to teach the next generation of Eridians and have the occasional game night with Rocky and Adrian in his dome. For the most part, nothing changes.
And that's the problem. Shouldn't Grace, y'know...age? When Rocky indicates that he should be sixty human years old by now, Grace can't reconcile the young face in the mirror with the time that his friend has religiously kept.
Things get more complicated when another undoubtedly human ship shows up at the edge of the 40 Eridani system. Suddenly Grace is playing ambassador between the two species, and tensions are rising between them. Will this be a successful second contact, or is the peaceful life Grace just wants to live too much to ask for?
