    Summary

    When Grace gets seemingly teleported by means unknown into the SM-13 right as it was nearing The Light, both Simon and Grace have no idea what is happening. Grace knows he was supposed to be in his house on Erid, Simon knows this new guy cannot possibly be a hallucination, and Ava, upon hearing Grace ramble about theories for how he got there, knows that new guy is Smart. Could-Secure-Our-Survival Smart.
    She orders Simon to bring Grace back to the surface, and thus begins Grace's ordeal in a starless universe.

    Summary

    Whatever happened here was bad. Irrevocably, inexplicably, inarticulably bad in a way that the most basal parts of his being wants nothing more than to escape from. But Grace can't turn away.

    After encountering what appears to be a last hoo-ra emergency mission attempt from Earth caught up in the Hail Mary's wake, Grace and Rocky discover a single, severely injured human being quite literally encased in what Grace can only describe as a crime scene. A horror movie. And when he wakes up? He's mad. Really mad. Talking to the walls mad. Now they have to figure out just where he came from and why. Things are further complicated when all the newcomer (Simon, they learn) can talk about is missing planets, haunted oceans, and non-existent space stations. That and the really weird data they've been picking up on.
    Maybe part of solving that is, much to Rocky's enthusiasm; both Grace and Simon slowly realizing how lonely they are.

    Summary

    Simon waited.

    Waited for them to apologize. Tell him there’s nothing they could do. That he wasn’t worth the trouble or resources, that he wasn’t worth the time.

    But that never came.

    Instead, after a second Grace came back on the line, his voice sounding determined now. “Alright,” he said. “Hang tight.”

    Simon blinked slowly. “What?”

    Summary

    Michelle Jones wasn’t a forgetful person. When she was captain of the Decathlon team, she’d drilled flashcards until her brain was stuffed full with facts and figures. She remembered birthdays, middle names, and allergies. She prided herself on being observant, cataloging those things away for later. But for once, when she went reaching for a memory, all she found was the empty space where it’d once been kept.

    Something was wrong.

    ---
    Right before she forgets, MJ leaves a note for herself. She knows Peter too well– he won't want to put her and Ned in danger again. But she refuses to let him fight alone.

    Summary

    At the end of the day, even as the big-top tent fractures and the circus threatens to cave in, Ragatha is still stuck in that dining room, pinned to her chair at one end of a long table. The shadow at the far side watches her. Ragatha cannot leave.
