    Summary

    When Eva Stratt initially reaches out to you, she tells you the sun is dying. They need to figure out a way to remedy it. They have their solution, a three-man crew composed of an engineer, a captain, and a scientist.

    Oleysa Ilyukhina, Yáo Li-jie, and Martin DuBois respectively.

    “You are our backup engineer,” she says, her hands clasped in front of her as she stares at you with a stony, impassive gaze. “Welcome to Project Hail Mary.”

    Summary

    “You’re awake!” He exclaims, taking several steps forward to where you stand next to the ladder, and begins speaking quickly. “I’ve been trying to figure out how I could wake you. The computer hasn’t been helpful at all, and all those medical textbooks don’t have information about situations like this—”
    He cuts himself off, perhaps realizing that your eyes are wide at the flurry of information he throws at you. “Sorry, I got ahead of myself,” He apologizes, running a hand through his hair again and adjusting the gold glasses that had been slipping down his nose. “You just woke up, and I didn’t introduce myself. I’m Ry—”
    “Ryland Grace,” You complete for him without thinking.
    “You remember?” He exclaims, his eyes brightening.
    You pause. How did you know that? You didn’t remember your own name until two minutes ago, yet you instinctively knew his. Something about him was familiar, but you couldn’t put your finger on it.

    You wake up nine days late aboard the Project Hail Mary with no memories and the faint feeling that you know Ryland Grace, the only other person aboard the ship. Oh, and he just met an alien.

    Summary

    “You look nice,” he says, smiling a little shy, as if the compliment had just slipped out and he was supposed to be embarrassed about that.

    “I uh,” You pause, swallowing thickly.

    Holy fuck he looks good in a suit. It’s the only thought spinning around your head. Suddenly you’re reminded of all those times he’d complained about all the formal conferences and charity gala’s he’d attended during his days in academia. You realise you have made a grave error.

    in which: You need a date to the wedding you foolishly agreed to attend, luckily your co-worker is a willing sacrifice. Extremely willing.

    Summary

    You and Ryland Grace have history. Specifically: three years of academic rivalry, a relationship that ended badly, and eight years of not talking about it.

    -or-

    You wake up on the Hail Mary. Ryland Grace is three feet away and has no idea who you are. You remember everything. You are going to be so completely fine about it.

    Project Hail Mary Cannon AU, sequel to Margin of Error – start there if you can. Second person, slow burn, unreliable narrator, and the specific grief of being right about everything except the thing that mattered most.

    Summary

    "Grace is mate. Question?"
    You smile, having already expected it from Rocky. "No. We knew each other before all of this, but we weren't together."
    He turns to you in his makeshift seat in the cockpit. "Together like only two of you?"
    "Together like..." you try to find the words. "Sharing a space, talking to each other about what we're scared of, making jokes, solving problems, all of that."
    Rocky doesn't say anything at first, until. "You and Grace already do those things. Statement."

    Or: As you are recalling moments from your life on earth, you are stuck saving the world with a rock who speaks to you through puppet shows and computers, and a school teacher (also bastardized scientist) who keeps looking at you as if you created all the stars in space.
