    Summary

    If you escaped hell and ended up in paradise, you'd think you were still in hell. You'd question every good thing that happened and flinch at every offering. You'd keep waiting for the other shoe to drop. Even as Simon stares at the one thing he's wanted nothing more to see again, he keeps waiting for the smell of iron. The smell of blood.

    The first other human Ryland Grace has seen in years is some crazy psycho man who keeps trying to fight Eridians who could flatten him in a second. Is that sexy? Grace has got no idea. But! Hey! A crazy psycho human is better than no human!!! Ever...!!! For the rest of Grace's life...!
    ....
    Maybe the confidence is the sexy part?

    Summary

    Summary

    Ryland Grace wakes up on board the Hail Mary with no memory of how he got there or who he is. He is, despite his lack of memory, 100% certain he is unqualified to be in space. He does not like being in space. Every time he looks out a window he feels sort of nauseous. Unfortunately, he's kind of got to suck it up. He has literally no way back home - home, of course, being 11.9 light years away. And (as if everything else wasn't bad enough!) the only other living human on the Hail Mary is an engineer named Simon Fischer.

    Or, a bloodymary au where Grace and Simon are alone in outer space together (until Rocky shows up)

    Summary

    A comic re-posted from my Tumblr

    There's no reason Simon would wake up on the Hail Mary and act rationally after dying in a blood ocean.

    So, he doesn't

    Good luck to Grace and Rocky

    Summary

    “Pilot awake!”

    You tear your eyes from the myriad of glass tubing crowding the bunks. That was most definitely not the same automated voice that the computer had spoken with earlier. You turn around, and—

    Well. You have no fucking idea what you’re looking at.

    Your brain rapidly oscillates between fight or flight, fight or flight, before settling on the third option; freeze and scream. Your already dry and strained vocal cords squeeze and shred in protest, so it comes out less like shriek and more like a raspy whine. Get with the program, larynx!

    The creature makes some sort of shrill, musical noise back, waving its appendages at you. Which you can only assume is some sort of offensive posture. Holy shit.

    “Not worry! Rocky friend! Grace! Pilot friend awake!” The creature trills.

    Hail Mary's commanding officer wakes up two months late.
