    Summary

    “I don’t expect you to apologize to me, you know?”

    They had ordered their food, coffee mugs steaming in front of them, but still sitting untouched. The air was thick between them, filled with tension pulled as taut as a rubber band.

    “Good.” Stratt’s eyes were hard, face cold as a stone, but Grace was pretty sure he saw her lips twitch, like she was thinking about smiling. Maybe.

    Expectedly, she did not.

     

    (Grace sees Stratt for the first time since his return to Earth. They talk about nothing and everything.)

    Summary

    “You said he needs a clean mind, right?” Avery says after a few moments. “So what if we corrupt mine too?”

    “No.” Derek tells him firmly. The very thought of it makes him sick. “It’ll slowly kill you to take on infinite knowledge like that. It’s slowly killing me, Avery. You need to go.”

    “What if,” Avery says, not budging an inch, “I take on half of yours? Would half kill me?”

    Derek goes to protest but pauses mid-sentence. Thinks about it. Rolls the question around in his vault of infinite knowledge to find…

    Damn, that actually might work…

    (Or Avery comes up with a different solution, Derek figures out how to execute it, and both of them learn to live with the result.)

    Summary

    The Hail Mary has been shot out into the depths of the infinite void of space to search for an answer that may not even be there. Aboard, the three crew members lay in stasis as the ship hurtles like an arrow towards a distant star, with no hope of return, but a desperate hope to make things right.

    At home, two brothers are left in sudden and violent grief. A woman grapples with whether or not she made the right decision. The world strains and suffers under the weight of the coming Fimbulwinter.

    And then one of the beetles returns.

    Thirteen years early.

    Summary

    It’s him.

    Not him, as in Grace, but him as in the maybe-twin in the photo.

    He has this sad, stricken face on him, and is standing stock still several feet away.

    “Hey there,” Grace attempts.

    “Ry?”

    Or, Colt and Grace are estranged twins who begin to have very strange shared dreams.

    Summary

    "The first thing that Ryland noticed, aside from the fact that his literal clone had just popped up in a small diner in the middle of San Fransisco, was the fact that the guy was wearing sunglasses.

    Inside.

    They were perched on the bridge of a nose that looked like it had been broken several times—ouch—but, that was definitely his nose. Same cheekbones. Same jaw. Ryland would know. He saw it every morning, in the streaky mirror in his bathroom.

    Upwards of two decades of not seeing his twin brother, and all Ryland could focus on was that Colt was wearing sunglasses inside. Like, seriously. Who did that?"

     

    or:

    they say that distance makes the heart grow fonder.

    ryland grace and colt seavers both know that distance only makes it hurt more.
