    Summary

    After a year in orbit, Grace thinks he's ready to finally make his way down to Erid. The planet has been eagerly awaiting his arrival, ready to welcome him like a hero. Grace forgot to consider just how loud Erid could be and, more importantly, how frayed his tolerance is after years of near solitary travel.

    OR

    Grace is overstimulated and has a meltdown shortly after arriving on Erid. Rocky tries to help.

    Summary

    “Um, hello.” Rocky lifts a hand slowly. The rock spider chitters and attempts to lift one back. But it’s tangled in wire, and the force that the alien uses to tug it free sends his body reeling backwards and thumping against the side of the tunnel. Rocky tries to keep a straight face.

    “I’ll call you Grace,” he says. “Clearly you have plenty of it.”

    ...

    Rocky wakes up in the Tau Ceti system, with his commander and science specialist dead. How's he supposed to save Earth?

    Befriend the alien scientist he runs into, of course.

    Summary

    Grace didn't have much of anything these days. Less appetite, less strength, less of whatever it was that made a person reach for a disgusting coma food slurry bag and drink it down because it was necessary to live and do it all over again tomorrow because tomorrow existed and had things in it worth being alive for.

    Or - Grace's mental health deteriorates on the journey to Erid.

    Summary

    As he stared down into the lumpy grey goop that was his evening rations, he contemplated whether it was really worth it.

    They’d come a very long way just for Grace to give up and die at the last hurdle, both physically and emotionally. The Tau Ceti system was a long, long way away now, and Grace had faced not one but two highly emotional suicide missions. Three, if you counted the time before he was given a military grade roofie and hucked into space without his memories.

     

    Rocky and Grace make it back to Erid! Huzzah!
    Now they have to navigate all of... that.

    Summary

    “Always think,” Rocky shifted his ball closer, bumping into Grace’s shoulder. Grace bumped it back, lips quirking up. “Think, think, think. Human brain never shut off. What Grace think about, question?”

    Grace went quiet for a moment and looked away. “Uh, my… ‘mate.’ Back on Earth. I remember I had one.”

    A series of happy little squeaks and chirps erupted from Rocky, his claws waving in frantic little jazz hands. He must have been excited to realize Grace had someone waiting for him back at home. Grace still didn't have the heart to tell him the truth, and likely never would. He shakes the thought away and focuses, eyes half-lidded and flickering back toward Rocky. The display pulled a genuine smile from Grace, though he wasn’t sure there was anything happy about the man back on Earth who grabbed him like a dog.
    ________________

    Alternatively, Grace has a flashback and subsequent revelations about himself and the person he was dating back on Earth. It affects him more than he thought it would.

    Summary

    We're almost at Erid. I have to tell him before we get in range of whatever radio-equivalent they use. He deserves to know, to have the chance to tell everyone before I land. He should know I’m a coward before he convinces his planet to funnel all their resources into keeping me alive.

    I've thought it through so many times, in the years since I remembered.

    ‘Hey Rocky, I need to tell you something.’

    ‘Hey Rocky, you know how you always call us brave? Well…’

    ‘Hey Rocky so the actual reason I had amnesia when I met you was because I said no when they asked me to save my planet even though I was the only qualified candidate and they forced me to and I said if they sent me I'd kill everyone by sabotaging the mission so Stratt gave me some insane amnesia drug.’

    Not exactly a conversation anyone wants to have ever, let alone with their roommate in a ship with no escape. Not something anyone wants to hear from the person they're relying on to save their people, either.

    Summary

    Peter loves his friends. Which is why he had to kill them. And now, he's doing- well. Alright. Things didn't turn out exactly as he'd anticipated, but he's making it work. Living his life. As a rat. Mostly trying not to think about things.

    Fine. Things could be better.

    But he hadn't thought they'd get worse- which is exactly what happens when, three years after James died, he's come back. And for some godforsaken reason, he's decided to make that Peter's problem. (Okay, okay- Peter gets it. He did kill him.) Peter is sure that James is going to turn him in, ruin his life the same as Peter had ruined the Marauders.

    But this is James. And he doesn't do any of that.

    What was Peter expecting, really?

    (Features: A lot of fighting, a lot of forgiveness, and a splash of necromancy. Alright, you got me- rather a lot of necromancy. But come on- we can't just have the ghost of Christmas James show up. Haven't you seen 'A Muppet's Christmas Carol'? There needs to be at least two more ghosts.)

    Summary

    Harry has never been good with words. Not like Hermione, who can write multi-page essays with barely a glance at a textbook. Even when his content is adequate, sometimes his spelling isn’t or his handwriting is a mess. Snape is the worst about it, but sometimes even McGonagall is harsh.

    It stands to reason that Harry shouldn’t write in T. M. Riddle’s diary.

    He does so anyway.

    Summary

    By the fourth day, Harry stops wanting the letters at all.
    They feel like mockery now. 
    Proof that rescue was an option. Proof that suffering could be spared.

    When another envelope slides across the floor, Harry turns his face away.
    Uncle Vernon notices, of course he does.

    “Oh, don’t pretend you don’t want it now,” he sneers, grinding the letter under his heel. “You think you’re special, don’t you, freak?”

    Harry bites the inside of his cheek until he tastes blood.

    I think you’re late, he wants to scream to whoever is sending them. I think you’re cruel. I think you let me rot. I think this is the meanest thing anyone has ever done to me, giving me hope for nothing.

    Or:
    Harry Potter gets his Hogwarts letter when he’s ten years old.
    It’s too late.
