    You're so fucking stupid, she thought again, the way you press a bruise.

    OR

    Beca is depressed and smokes alone in the Bellas House bathroom whilst thinking about how sad her life is. That's it.

    Summary

    A Rocky POV of Project Hail Mary, but add in a sprinkle of originally named astrophages, petrova lines, language barriers, trauma recovery, and extra, extra worldbuilding. Includes pre- and post-canon!

    La traduccion al espanol by MichiHolmes! Gracias!

    ***

    One day, his strumming was not answered.

    The silence that answered his one verse of song was horrible and grating. Incomplete. Empty. A sick, horrible fear built up inside him.

    (He was going to die out here. Alone.)

    ***

    "Iz huhg," Grace sniffled out, sucking back in moisture from his noze, too. There was moisture and water and everything all over the place. "Huhg meens grayt, grayt, grayt affekshun."

    "Oh," he said tentatively. Another hewmin thing! He shuffled closest to the wall Grace was huhging and leaned in. "Oh. Am I doing correctly, hmm?"

    "Yis," Grace sighed out, calming down. He still leaked, though.

    Oh, well. Leaky hewmins were his favorite, after all.

    The alliance's victory turned out to be a trap. Having created the "Gusu-Shield" algorithm, brilliant programmer Wei Wuxian transformed from the ultimate victor into a captive of the head of Cloud Recesses Tech.
    For Chairman Lan Wangji, this conflict was merely a pretext to seal absolute isolation around the omega.

    Uzi sees a stranger every time she looks in the mirror. The girl she used to be died with her mother. All that's left is guilt, self-hatred, and the maddening whispers that never leave her alone.

    Summary

    Shane and Ilya have been married for 6 years with 3 kids, what seems like a picture perfect family actually hides a more sinister truth.

    -

    “You are not alone, you have me and your children, what more could you want?” Ilya said softly. “The world can be cruel, especially in my line of work. If I let you and the kids outside, you become targets. I keep you here for your safety, and because I love you.” Ilya placed a kiss on Shane’s forehead.

    “You trapped me,” Shane whispered.

    Ilya’s gaze changed, his face hardened. His heavy scent flared with suffocating waves of cedarwood and leather. Yet, he didn’t argue, he let his scent do the work. As the waves of intimidating Alpha scent flooded the bedroom, Shane could feel his inner omega biology washing over him, trying to force him to submit to his Alpha.

    “I saved you, everything I do is for you and our children.” Ilya corrected him softly.

    Summary

    “I suppose it’s smart of you to not trust a stranger, but I keep my word, crow.”

    Rook skillfully shifted to grip the feather in his talons so he could speak. “Rook,” he corrected.

    “Is this supposed to mean something to me?” the man asked, starting to look impatient.

    “Ca-crow. Rrr-Rook,” he repeated firmly.

    Rasmodius’ face lit up in amusement. “Oh my apologies,” he said, not very apologetically. “I will make note of your name should I have need of you again."

    Rasmodius did not need anyone. He was satisfied in isolation, stone walls built up around his heart like a fortress.

    And Rook the crow was a wrecking ball.
