    Summary

    Clark Kent was barely fourteen when the sun was predicted to be dimming. The sun, a star that had longer lifespan, bigger mass and steadier power than Earth that's currently sheltering an alien like him, was dying. Could you imagine? Just as when he finally got a better hold of his flight ability under control, too. He's... never felt this kind of dread before as someone who should've died many times in the past but didn't, to say the least.

    Probably because Clark knew, despite all the mightiness he possessed, there's nothing he could do about it.

    Or: AU where Clark Kent was taken under Ryland Grace's wings at some point, as a middle-schooler student who's going through constant existential (extraterrestrial) crisis as a teen.

    Summary

    The blonde man who's been beamed up with Jim, who’s glasses have all but repelled themselves from his face, curled in on himself on the transporter pad is obviously not Spock. There's a new recruit on the Enterprise it appears.

    or

    It is an interesting coincidence that both Erid and Vulcan are based in the same star system, it is also an interesting coincidence that the USS Enterprise and the Hail Mary occupy the same exact physical plane when a transporter incident disappears one Cmdr. S'chan T'gai Spock and Dr. Ryland Grace from their respective ships.

    Summary

    For a few seconds, he sees it disappear from his peripheral vision. He sighs, and starts to slow down.

    Then, something breaks the water in front of his boat. It lifts off a couple of meters from the surface, tail long, bare human torso twisting in efffort before it dives back down. Water splashes in Simon’s face. His boat comes to a still. He can still see the round impact of the landing

    That is… definitely a mermaid.

    Simon is a fisherman living in a small town nestled inside of a cove known for its red beach and water. The day a strange duo composed of an even stranger doctor and his accented friend arrive into town, Simon makes a strange encounter.

    Summary

    The man turned toward me, he was wearing a heavyweight parka over a green jumpsuit uniform, and for some reason, I couldn't stop staring at his eyes behind those thick glasses. It was also green. But not the pale kind or the dull kind. It was bright green. The sort of eyes that immediately grabbed your attention and refused to let go.

    Then I noticed the expression attached to those eyes.

    Oh. That was definitely not gratitude I am seeing over there, buddy.

    Or, Grace wakes from a coma with no memory of the events of Hail Mary, but this grumpy engineer who can turn him into a complete mess somehow feels hauntingly familiar.
