    Summary

    After deciding to turn back to find Rocky again, Grace realizes that not everyone who sent a mission to Tau Ceti was as lucky as them. And he doesn’t mean just the crew of the Hail Mary and Blip-A.

    There's another ship. And it's not moving.

    Summary

    “Would it help––should I bring my dinner in too?” Grace jokes, smiling in preparation for the absolute symphony of disgusted whistles he knows Rocky will produce at the thought of them doing something as depraved as sharing a meal. “I’ve been saving this week’s half packet of ramen for just such an occasion––”

    [YES YES YES!] Rocky’s translator app suddenly blares from the laptop on the floor between them. [YES, ACCEPT ACCEPT ACCEPT! GRACE RAMEN ♪♫♪♫ WITH ROCKY, AFFIRMATIVE! GRACE ROCKY EAT ♪♫♪♫ MEAL TOGETHER AFFIRMATIVE YES YES AFFIRMATIVE NOW.]

    or, a fic to answer the questions: What if you fell in love for the first time in your 40s, and it just so happened to be with your alien best bud who has five legs, no face, and is already married? And then what if you accidentally proposed marriage to said alien best bud without knowing, because while you may be Earth's best and brightest, you are also notoriously inexperienced and kinda stupid at close interpersonal relationships? What then?

    Summary

    “Dr. Grace, I will be frank. The frequency is behaving in a steady manner, not guided by any gravitational pull towards any other planet…except Earth. It is too far away to catch a quality satellite images, but we think this may be–”

    “–a vessel using astrophage as fuel.” Grace finished quietly. He studied the image, an infrared camera’s picture, a red streak in a sea of darkness that ended abruptly. He zoomed in on the image, as far as it would go and then some, fingers braced on the glass to keep the image enhanced, but it was too dark to see anything at the tail of the red streak. “You think it’s an alien ship.”

    Grace swiped his finger across the screen and physically recoiled at the image, the desk chair wheeling back with him almost a foot. “Eridian. That’s an Eridian ship, I’m sure of it.”
    -
    Grace with no video logs, with no xenonite failure, who comes back to Earth as Rocky comes back to Erid, heart full but missing a very distinct piece. there's a deepset something in his eyes that has nothing to do with Stratt's actions being revealed or the press or adjusting to earth again.
