Summary
Three years after the probes carrying Taumoeba and Dr. Ryland Grace's final message arrive on Earth, humanity launches an interstellar spaceship with a brand new mission. Thirty-six crew members (including two graduates of a certain San Franciscan junior high school) travel to the star 40-Eridani to make friendly contact with the Eridians and bring them the alien life form from Tau Ceti-E that can save their star if Dr. Grace's sacrifice failed.
Grace, now fifty-seven years old, is just trying to balance his life as a teacher while no longer being the only human on the planet anymore. It's a big adjustment, but Rocky and the Terra's Grace crew are going to make sure he's well taken care of.

Simon didn’t expect his savior to be exactly his type.
What a welcome sight. Even if this stupidly handsome man ends up being evil, or working for the C.O.I, at least he’d die looking at something good.

Summary
“For most of the day I guarded Holmes’ coffin. My wolf form was far more useful for such a task, and so I dozed on the soft, plush carpet beside him. Daytime hours were generally spent sleeping, for both of us. We were both creatures of the night, after all.”

Mycroft had not understood why Sherlock would allow anyone close to him, given the foes they faced. He understood even less the decision to have such faith in a doctor, a writer, a man of great curiosity.
Now, it was Dr. Watson’s services which Mycroft needed.

Summary
"An incredible ability of the human brain, no matter how lousy a man feels over the day, in the night he will feel lousier."
Holmes and Watson are back in their old chambers at Baker Street. The night comes, and so do the dark thoughts (but if there's anything to make them pass away, that's a good middle-of-the-night talk).

Summary
Sherlock Holmes had uncovered most of my secrets within a month of our sharing digs, but he did not necessarily apply himself to teasing out the details of each one. He knew I had been in Afghanistan, that I had been injured, and the nature of my injury, but it was several years until he truly saw the extent of the reconstruction that had been done on my body.

Summary
John Watson returned to London at the end of the war a battered and broken man, without family or friends to call upon in his time of need. It was providence and Stamford that brought us together: me an eccentric theorist on the verge of his first big discovery, and he an invalid in need of safe harbor.
“You will be pleased to hear, I’m sure,” said he, “that I have found some gainful employment.”
Holmes discovers Watson is posing for pornographic photography to make the rent.

Summary
“You know how I feel about baseless superstition, Watson.” Watson’s eyebrow remains firmly raised, a familiar expression to Holmes after all their years of cohabitation. “No, I simply looked at the front page of our ever-illustrious daily newspaper.” He gestures blithely at said discarded newspaper. “A newspaper that runs a story about a mundane heist on its front page cannot have anything more substantial to offer within its depths.”
Watson’s face morphs into another familiar look: equal parts exasperation and fondness, a certain softness lingering about his gaze even as his eyebrows furrow the slightest bit. Like the good doctor cannot decide which he feels most strongly, Holmes thinks, a warm feeling in the centre of his chest.

Summary
Watson couldn’t say that he was wholly surprised to wake up covered in newspapers. It had certainly happened before often enough in the past, although this was more impressive than usual. He was covered in enough newspapers that he couldn’t actually see the light of Holmes’ bedroom lamp.
This was, however, just one of the hazards of sleeping anywhere in Holmes’ vicinity.
