    Summary

    It had been ++V+λ days since Ryland Grace was warmly (understatement of the year) welcomed to Erid. His time was now mostly spent teaching his class of pebbles and enjoying invaluable quality time with Rocky. Avitamosis was rough for the first year, but Eridian xenomedical advancements had assuaged the worst of these problems. He was content with his lot. It's not like he'd been counting the seconds since he last saw another human alive.
    Not all ∀II∀+ℓℓ+ℓℓℓ of them, surely.

    Summary

    When you woke, it wasn’t slow or drifting- it was all at once. There was no gradual return to consciousness, and no drifting up through layers of half-thought and sensation. One moment there was nothing- no time, no body, no awareness, no self- and the next there was everything, immediate and overwhelming as you came to life like a risen corpse, gasping and coughing, with Grace's name on your lips.

    -or-

    You wake four years after the events on the Vat, far from home- 11.9 light-years away from everything familiar. Dr. Grace is there- you didn’t lose him, not entirely- but when he wakes, it becomes clear that he doesn’t remember you; doesn’t remember what you meant to each other- and the strain of carrying that alone begins to show, even to him.

    Summary

    “To the stars.”

    Abigail Fletcher is a nobody. It is who she has always been, and who she was happy to be.

    An ordinary 26 year old from an inconsequential part of England, an average airforce pilot turned mechanical engineer with a habit for singeing her own fingers, with a lacklustre love life, a drab apartment, a fashion style stuck in the 90's, a small circle of like-minded average friends, with little concern for her future beyond the meal prep needed for the next week.

    She has no ambitions to be anybody, content with her lot in life and uninterested in grandeur. Least of all does she ever imagine herself a saviour of the human race, she can't even keep the plant on her windowsill alive. But that's just the very thing, courage is often found in the unlikeliest of places.

    In a series of very unfortunate events, she finds herself awakening from a coma 12 lightyears from earth, with only an anxiety-ridden secondary school teacher for company. She doesn't know how she got here, what her part to play in saving the world could possible be, nor her own name.

    But she's stuck, and so is he, so they might as well try and see the job through.

    Summary

    “Pilot awake!”

    You tear your eyes from the myriad of glass tubing crowding the bunks. That was most definitely not the same automated voice that the computer had spoken with earlier. You turn around, and—

    Well. You have no fucking idea what you’re looking at.

    Your brain rapidly oscillates between fight or flight, fight or flight, before settling on the third option; freeze and scream. Your already dry and strained vocal cords squeeze and shred in protest, so it comes out less like shriek and more like a raspy whine. Get with the program, larynx!

    The creature makes some sort of shrill, musical noise back, waving its appendages at you. Which you can only assume is some sort of offensive posture. Holy shit.

    “Not worry! Rocky friend! Grace! Pilot friend awake!” The creature trills.

    Hail Mary's commanding officer wakes up two months late.

    Summary

    “I need you to know that if things were different —if this mission didn’t exist, if I wasn't —," she lets out a shakey breath, her resolve slowly breaking down. "I would have chosen you. Without hesitation."
