Summary
"Mild sedation will be beneficial to avoid further damage.” Mary says, cool as a cucumber. Right. That sounds good. Great, even.
And there was a needle coming towards me.
Wait."
...Grace has made peace with not going home. Grace has made peace with his choice, and he would choose Rocky every time. Grace has not made peace with what happened to him before he left.

coffee for your head by willoftitanium

Summary
"Without thinking of it, Grace makes it through two and three fourths of a bag of coffee. Rookie numbers. The taste didn't get better, but it was something new, almost comforting in how demanding it was of his senses. It shushed that little voice telling him if he had to see another white spaceship panel, or taste taumoeba again, he would throw himself into the nearest star’s orbit."
...
Grace remembers he can drink coffee, and immediately regrets it. -

Summary
When John returns to Arthur from the Dark World, there’s a lot for him to grapple with. The reality of what happened there, keeping it a secret per his deal with Kayne; Arthur, as cold and ravaged as the town of Addison. Returned to Arthur’s body, John still retains the ability to see the final moments of the deceased. But now, when John touches Arthur’s skin, he sees Arthur’s deaths. All of the times things almost ended very differently. Arthur is hell bent on bringing about such an outcome on his own, and John has seen enough death for one lifetime – especially deaths of the person he cares about most.
Written for the Malevolent 2025 Big Bang!

Summary
Rocky & Grace play Tetris, and also a lot of other stuff happens before and after that. Like a very dangerous chest infection in deep space.

Summary
Rocky was everywhere in those months. Translating, explaining, checking on Grace between meetings, settling beside him on the beach in the evenings with the comfortable familiarity of someone who had been doing exactly this for years. Which he had. Which was normal. Which was what Grace had.
Then the meetings got longer. Then Rocky started coming to the beach less. Then there were days Grace didn’t see him at all, just received a brief communication through the translator system — Rocky is in conference, will check on Grace later — and later became the next morning, and the morning after that.
Grace told himself this was fine.

Summary
Grace has to handle First Contact with an alien planet with what meager Eridian his one set of vocal chords can make.
This Is Fine. This is totally, completely, utterly fine.(Grace sounds like a pebble. This, alongside Eridian's extended lifespans, kicks off a chain of misunderstandings that Grace would find utterly mortifying if he knew what the heck was going on.)

Summary
“There’s, um, two clinical manifestations of beriberi. Wet and dry,” he explained. “Dry damages the nervous system. Numbness in the hands and feet, difficulty walking, confusion, all that good stuff.”
Rocky would never understand how Grace could talk about his body deteriorating so casually. His wry smile every time the taumoeba came right back out of his mouth, the blood left on his toothbrush after he brushed. “I’m leaking again,” he’d laugh. Humans could laugh without sounding happy, Rocky had learned.
Grace gets beriberi on his way to Erid. Rocky copes.

Summary
“I'm an apex predator too, remember,” I say, and Rocky and Adrian completely stop their conversation and twist their carapaces around to me.
On Earth, Rocky says, and there’s an undertone of amusement to his voice. Not on Erid.
