Summary
Simon takes a breath. Than another. He lays his face in his hands instead of smashing it against the iron, he thinks his mom would've been proud of him for somehow not exploding in anger. God, Simon knows for a fact none of this was in the manual he skimmed. No helpful section on what to do if you find yourself with an obnoxious alien speaking directly into your mind.
“Rocky no obnoxious! Rocky try save mean human from leak. Human want to die question?”
“Wait”, that got Simon’s attention, “what do you mean a leak?”
What if after Simon gets sent down for the second time he doesn't meet Ellie, but someone else? Featuring Grace as the mysterious radio voice and Rocky as a too-friendly blood rock alien hellbent on fixing Simon's ship.

Summary
In the beginning was the Blood. And the Blood is with Our God. And the Blood will be God.
We have waited at the bottom of the ocean to tell you of these things, of the One born from everything who will inherit the nothingness We left behind. The nothingness you still cling to. In your absence, you have given to Us a savior, who shall wake Our God from the depths and deliver you to Us. When the Stars and the Planets have abandoned you, when you have all but starved a dying world, when you number less than one-thousand, he will come. Not of your will, but his own.
And he will make straight the path of Our Lord.
This is a tale of love, of family, and the indomitable human spirit in the most unlikely places. And lots, and lots, of blood.
Alternate Summary: what if the horrors saved Simon bathed him and gave him a lil kissy kissy goodnight
