    Summary

    title shortened from: 'Sharks just want to play, experienced sailors fear the jellyfish'

    In the canon universe we know, Eva Stratt and Ryland Grace would never be able to have more than what they did: a fleeting friendship, brushing the surface of what they *could* be but never dipping deeper. Stratt had a job to do. Grace had a world to save.

    Here, however, meeting years earlier and in a universe where the sun will never dim, things go a little differently.

    OR

    aroace strattland working themselves out in the world, figuring out how to settle into the secret third thing that makes their lives so much better. Domestic fluff, years worth of waiting, two souls that just connect, even if they could never explain quite how, A shark and a jellyfish, bobbing their way through the ocean.

    Summary

    She gets out because, well, obviously she does. The world needs her to save it. Again.

    Her guards sound annoyed when they break the news to her, like they don’t want to see her go. The first thing she feels is relief so immense it removes something heavy from her shoulders that had been there for so long she’s forgotten its existence. The second thing she feels is the weight coming back with a familiar clock in its tow. They say You’ve been pardoned and she gets flashbacks of the last project and has to force down the fear bubbling up inside her, has to press it down with both hands.

    | or: eva stratt is pardoned and made to lead on the taumoeba mission. ryland grace does not come back.

    | or or: i took every thought of eva stratt i had and put them here. i think i'm going crazy

    Summary

    ‘There appears to be a real risk,’ said Psychologist Prime, tapping a stylus against their tablet in an idle way that frayed at the edge of Adrian’s sore nerves, ‘That should Alien Human-from-Earth-of-Sol Asylum-seeker Savior-of-Erid Grace perish, then your mate Savior Rocky may experience a radical and potentially fatal decline in physiological and psychological health.’

    ‘...I see,’ said Adrian. With exceptional calmness.

    ---

    Let it not be said that Adrian was not devoted as well. They had stood firm, a loyal widower longer than others could fathom. Once you encountered a love like Rocky’s, there could be no replacement. Nothing could even compare.

    ‘Do you understand that?’ Adrian wanted to ask. So desperately, they wanted the alien’s reply. ‘Are you the only other creature in the universe who understands what it is like to be loved by someone so completely?’

    ---

    Adrian meets Grace several times, before Grace is healthy enough to meet them in return. Despite light-years of distance between their species, Adrian might have finally met the first other being who appreciates Rocky like they do; or so they hope.

    Summary

    Less than 2 months away from Erid. In the process of the Hail Mary evading an exoasteroid, Rocky falls from top to bottom of the ship.

    In normal circumstances, Rocky could shake it off. Maybe a little sore, but okay.

    In this case, Rocky cannot.

    Rocky is scared.

    Summary

    "There is no point in any of this rumination. You are gone. You are nothing now but a muse, something that I can conjure upon command and listen. You are nothing more now than a lullaby, a prayer, a dissonant, augmented, ugly, beautiful melody."

    Rocky and Grace part ways for their respective planets. It should feel like a victory. It doesn't.
