    Summary

    Grace is too late rescuing Rocky. When he finds the Blip-A again, Rocky is already gone, so Grace does the only thing he can think of, and he takes Taumeoba-82.5 to Erid himself. If he can't save Rocky, well, he might as well make sure his death (and his crewmates' deaths) weren't in vain.

     

    He's sick, starving, and has no alien native to introduce him, but he's going to save Rocky's planet whatever it takes. After that... he supposes all that's left is for him to die. He's nearly out of food and Yao's gun is still tucked away safely in the Hail Mary's storage.
     

    Fortunately for him, Adrian doesn't plan on letting their mate's best friend die so easily.

    Summary

    “Pilot Detected,” Mary says.

    “Thank you, Mary,” he responds automatically.

    Exciting news: they’re almost at Erid! Hours away, actually! He’s vibrating with excitement, as much as you can with your ribs sticking out through your skin. But screw that noise! The journey is almost over! Beginning of an end, end of a beginning, baby! His entire journey has culminated into this one event: making contact with an alien species. Whether that was through astrophage, taumeoba, or Eridians. Not even being sick and hungry could ruin this. He doesn’t know if the nausea is from the nerves or not.

    Or: after saving two stars and returning to Erid, Grace and Rocky must face their most daunting challenge yet: having uncomfortable conversations.

    Summary

    Grace knows the chances he’ll survive and live a happy, fulfilling life are so comically low it would be easier for him to win the lottery seven times in a row. But he still allows himself to hope he might be able to go home after this is over, after he figures out why Tau Ceti's star isn’t dying.

    If he doesn’t hope, it’s easy to panic, and that isn’t productive to the mission. Besides, there’s another thing that motivates him apart from Stratt’s faith and the knowledge Earth’s fate is in his hands. It’s a bit unexpected, so much so that the realization had made him laugh when it crossed his mind for the first time— it was so sudden and so correct it didn’t even feel like it had come out of his head:

    At least there are no spiders in space.

    Or,

    One severely arachnophobic Ryland Grace meets a tarantula made out of rocks.

    Summary

    Two-body problem: A problem of classical mechanics to calculate and predict the motion of two massive bodies that are orbiting each other in space.

    “Adrian, just a small warning: the Rocky that came back might not be the Rocky you know. It’s classified, but my friend is one of the comms specialist on the space elevator. They told me things. He acts… weird. He doesn’t sleep, and neglects the medical and psychological exams. I’m not sure he’s here, if you know what I mean."
    “Where is he, then?” Adrian’s musical notes come out discordant.
    “Wherever his human companion is stuck. If the alien dies, Rocky might never come down from the stars.”

    Or; twenty-three friends leave for the most dangerous mission known to Erid, two strangers return.
