    Summary

    The Eridians have finally gotten the water feature in Ryland's personal zoo enclosure just right (even if Rocky would like him to stop calling his dome that).

    Rocky refuses to believe that humans naturally float. There is no way Ryland's entire species regularly goes into deep water for fun.

    Summary

    "...emitting a radio frequency, I tuned into it expecting little more than feedback, maybe due to a magnetic inbalance-”

    “And??”

    Wordlessly, they flick a switch, and the noise is played loud enough for the entire room to hear it. 

    “Please,” a voice sobs, “Please, it hurts- I'm scared, I just- please, I just want to live. Why doesn't anyone else want that? Why can't I- I want to-” it breaks off into more sobbing and the room practically vibrates with tension. 

    “That-! That is the language spoken by Engineer Rocky's Grace! That is HUMAN language!”

    “Yes.”

    “There is a human down there?? That shouldn't be-”

    “But there is. What now?”

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Basically my favorite BloodyMary comfort fic. Simon gets food, a shower, and to sleep with only minimal amounts of yelling and explaining to go through first. Pure cozy

    Summary

    It’s been twenty-four years since the Hail Mary set off for Tau Ceti. The Sierra program is long dead, and Courtland Gentry has Eva Stratt in his crosshairs.

    As Jody goes into surgery to save their daughter’s life, Colt Seavers feels as alone as the day he found out his twin brother had been sent to another solar system.

    Nearly three hundred thousand miles above the Earth’s surface, Ryland Grace hears another human voice for the first time in eight dilated years. It’s not who he expects.

    or, the motion of three brothers through space, time, and gravity.

    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.

    Summary

    “Adrian will understand,” Rocky says confidently. “Will be excited to meet alien. Will be excited to meet person who brought me home.”

    “Yeah, and I'm excited to meet them too, but after that!” Is this a translation error? A cultural miscommunication? How is Rocky not getting it? “You're partners. They're not going to want some alien around while you're, like… going on dates and all that.”

    “Does not mean no time for Grace.” Rocky’s starting to sound frustrated. Part of me feels bad, but the rest is just as frustrated. “Why think this, question? On Earth, just abandon friends when have mate, question?”

    It's so clearly a rhetorical question, to which the answer is obviously supposed to be no, of course not. I freeze up anyway.

    or: rocky HATE amatonormativity
