Do You Know What it is to be Loved by the Universe? by VenetaPsi
Fandoms: Project Hail Mary - Andy Weir, Project Hail Mary (2026), Andy Weir's Project Hail Mary - All Media Types
06 Jul 2026

Summary
‘There appears to be a real risk,’ said Psychologist Prime, tapping a stylus against their tablet in an idle way that frayed at the edge of Adrian’s sore nerves, ‘That should Alien Human-from-Earth-of-Sol Asylum-seeker Savior-of-Erid Grace perish, then your mate Savior Rocky may experience a radical and potentially fatal decline in physiological and psychological health.’
‘...I see,’ said Adrian. With exceptional calmness.
---
Let it not be said that Adrian was not devoted as well. They had stood firm, a loyal widower longer than others could fathom. Once you encountered a love like Rocky’s, there could be no replacement. Nothing could even compare.
‘Do you understand that?’ Adrian wanted to ask. So desperately, they wanted the alien’s reply. ‘Are you the only other creature in the universe who understands what it is like to be loved by someone so completely?’
---
Adrian meets Grace several times, before Grace is healthy enough to meet them in return. Despite light-years of distance between their species, Adrian might have finally met the first other being who appreciates Rocky like they do; or so they hope.

sleeping when you're dead by rockandrollinator
Fandoms: Project Hail Mary (2026), Project Hail Mary - Andy Weir

Summary
“Soon, okay? I’ll sleep soon.”
“Grace is liar.”
Grace didn’t deny it.
He wasn’t sure how long he worked for after that, but at some point, his body presumably shut itself down right there in his rolling chair. At least, that’s where he woke up, with a start, to find Rocky glaring at him with his whole body from across the lab.
They didn’t talk for a while after that.
Grace has a complicated relationship with sleep (and himself). Rocky enforces a bedtime (and Grace treating himself a little better).

wrong as rain by rockandrollinator

Summary
“I'm good. Just have a slight headache,” Grace muttered, knowing he wasn’t fooling Rocky by insisting he was totally and completely fine, “Gonna get some medication in me, lay down for a few minutes, then I’ll be right as rain.”
“Grace said body was good. Head pain was not mentioned. Rocky no understand rain statement; explain, question?”
Rocky rolled behind Grace as he started back toward the medbay, resigned to his fate as another pulse of pain shot through his skull. He tried to shake it off, clearing his throat, “Right as rain means…uh, ‘good as new,’ I guess? Does that make sense?”
He stumbled over a discarded jumpsuit on the floor, hissing when his already bruised knees dug into the metal floor. God, he was really stupid like this, huh?
“Grace wrong as rain now.”
(Grace has a migraine, Rocky helps as best as he can.)

Summary
“Grace taking long time. Grace okay, question? Need help, question?”
Of all things Grace didn’t want, he especially didn’t want Rocky’s help.
“Nope! You don’t need to help–I’m just…” He held his glasses up to inspect them. Well, at least Grace tried to inspect them, but he couldn’t freaking see. “I’m just cleaning up a bit before bed.”
It wasn’t a complete lie. He had been intending to clean up.
Grace moved his glasses between his fingers, feeling over what he knew was shattered glass. Great. Perfect.
(Grace breaks his one and only pair of glasses. Naturally, he doesn't tell Rocky this very important information.)

Summary
Perhaps Rocky isn't the best example of what an Eridian is like. Maybe they should've considered that, before letting Ryland Grace loose on planet Erid.

Guilt is not a weakness (it’s a reminder of our capacity to care) by life-is-reason (Tinysmolfluff) for tenfescue

Summary
“How am I supposed to calm down and stop panicking when I nearly took Adrian’s mate away from him, when I nearly took an innocent life, who risked his own to save mine even though I was not worth saving, I was a coward, I was willing to give up the lives of billions of people to keep my own peace and not leave my comfort zone. I’m pathetic and I’m a loser and I almost killed Rocky, oh, God.”
OR
Grace still feels guilty for nearly fucking up and killing Rocky. Those thoughts make him end up exactly as you think they would.

Summary
Six's mission to kill Sierra Four didn't go very well, nor did the phone call to Fitz after his escort tried to kill him. A man he'd heard of briefly in passing, a man who worked with no rules, said something that made Six freeze.
“I’m just going to have so much fun with… what’re their names? Colt Seavers and Ryland Grace?”
Or, what happens when Six's brothers are taken as leverage?

Summary
In hindsight, this whole fiasco could have been avoided if I had run for the water the moment the lights went out. They wouldn’t have been able to reach me there. No way I could have known that at the time, but the thought kept surfacing again and again as I laid in the dark with nothing to do but sweat and think.
It started about a half hour after class ended for the day.
TLDR: Grace gets kidnapped.

Summary
The videos came one after another. Each one hit Six's phone like a freight train. The first time Six had seen his little brothers in years, and it was videos of them being tortured. Every video demanded the same thing. Six's surrender.
Or
what if instead of Fitzroy and Claire, Lloyd held Colt and Ryland as leverage.

Summary
The arrival at Erid is a momentous occasion. Rocky is excited and thrilled. Ryland is overwhelmed. But the reunion is happy, beautiful, amazing.
Or that's what it should have been. Except Rocky gets hurt, Ryland is left to try and communicate with an alien planet, and everyone is scrambling to figure out how to do this. To Grace, this is incredible but also bittersweet - he got Rocky home safely with the taumoeba, now he just gets... to starve. To Erid, this is insane - how did Rocky show up in an alien spaceship with a child???
...
Ryland Grace is stuck trying to speak Eridian, immediately makes himself sound like a child, and Rocky's world and family scramble to help this strange pebble. Misunderstandings galore, alongside hurt/comfort and angst and fluff.

Grace has to handle First Contact with an alien planet with what meager Eridian his one set of vocal chords can make.
This Is Fine. This is totally, completely, utterly fine.(Grace sounds like a pebble. This, alongside Eridian's extended lifespans, kicks off a chain of misunderstandings that Grace would find utterly mortifying if he knew what the heck was going on.)

Summary
Mica handled a lot of unpredictable situations in their job as an emergency hatchling guardian. It came with the territory – there were all kinds of reasons a pebble too young to be alone might need watching by someone who wasn’t a cluster member. But Mica had never had a situation like the call they received from the space science cluster.
“Engineer Rocky is on that ship, apparently injured, and he’s brought back some kind of alien with him. It’s very young, only IIVI years old, it doesn’t have any of its own kind, but it learned some Eridian from Engineer Rocky. Can you come and watch it while Engineer Rocky recovers and we work out what it needs?”
or, Grace gets babysat by an Eridian.

Summary
The awareness of time is a delicate thing.
It is slipping rapidly from Grace's fingers. Grace, who is starving to death, who is still recovering from the most precise amnesia Earth could give him, who turned around and left Earth in the hands of the Beetles save his one dearest companion even though it would kill him, is still a scientist at heart. Scientists solve problems. He finds ways to keep track.
Rocky wouldn't approve, but what Rocky doesn't know won't hurt him.

silence more musical than any song by hansdevice

Summary
Hours later, Rocky wriggles awake. The pain has eased. His heartbeats have slowed. His cells are still functioning. There is no falling apart. He can hear the scritch-scratch of his five claws on Xenonite. He can hear the machines, humming their false song. He can hear the silent expanse of space. The distant stars. His friends, dead in the hull. And the building feeling, deep in every cell — every fibre of his body — that something is so incredibly wrong.
Rocky knows this disease. Exhaustion. And all alone in space, there is no cure.
It is a primal requirement that Eridians sleep only under the trusting gaze of their companions. Rocky spends forty-six years alone in space.
