    Summary

    “When the whole mess with Tom Ryder was done and dusted, and Colt finally got the girl (Jody told him he was on thin ice for calling her that, even if she had a smirk on her face), he finally decided it was time to call his brother back. Reconnect and apologize for being such an asshole.

    Colt was met with his voicemail instead. He called him again and again, heartfelt apologies and teasing inside jokes interspersed his words until Colt filled Ryland's voicemail inbox - and still, no response.

    He knew Ryland could be a pain in the ass when he wanted to be - a certain UNESCO conference in Denmark comes to mind - but this was an extreme, even for him. Even in his throes of self-pity, Ryland didn't miss a day of checking up on him even if Colt left him on read.

    Then news of the Arclight probe returning from the Petrova Line reached his ears, and everything suddenly made sense.”

    -

    Or, when Dr. Ryland Grace vanished into the secrecy of the Petrova Taskforce - soon to be known as “Project Hail Mary”, the world gained a scientist and hero.

    Colt lost his twin brother.

    Summary

    Ryland Grace spent four years at MIT hating Mark Watney with every fiber of his academically exhausted soul.

    Mark was loud, reckless, impossible to ignore, and somehow good at everything without even trying. Grace was neurotic, emotionally repressed, and one failed experiment away from becoming a supervillain. Naturally, they became rivals immediately.

    Then Rebecca — Grace’s girlfriend — got tired of dating a physics paper with anxiety and dumped him for Mark.

    Which only made the hatred worse.

    Six years later, humanity discovers Astrophage, the sun starts dying, and Grace suddenly finds himself recruited into the most important scientific project in human history. During a conversation with coworkers, he casually mentions his old college rival — only to learn Mark Watney was left behind on Mars and is presumed dead.

    Grace reacts to this information… concerningly badly.

    More to come.

    Summary

    Ryland Grace just awoke on a space ship with no idea who he is or why he's there.

    He's pretty sure he had a boyfriend, and he's pretty sure that boyfriend was an astronaut who gained international fame for surviving alone on Mars for a year and a half.

    But his biggest remaining question: How the fudge did that happen?
