    Summary

    It’s been nearly 27 years since Eva Stratt forced Ryland Grace to board the Hail Mary and sent him off to his death for the greater good of mankind. Meanwhile, Eva and the Project Hail Mary team have been fighting a losing battle against the cooling sun—and their own demons—trying to make sure there were still people to be saved by the time the crew could send a solution home. Right on schedule, the beetles are returning to Earth, hopefully with the answer to saving the world. But Eva has something else to worry about; there’s every possibility Ryland Grace’s last words would be coming home, and all the time in the world couldn’t make her ready to face the consequences of her actions, or what will happen when her colleagues find out what she did to their friend.
    It was time to find out if it was worth it for her to sacrifice Grace, and her soul, to save humanity. And to find out if she was ready to face him after all these years…

    “Grace!” Rocky says. “Look!”

    I look. Then I gasp.

    “Is Adrian!” Rocky says.

    (or, what happens once Ryland Grace becomes the sole human inhabitant of Erid.)

    Summary

    It had been a long and difficult 27 years since the Hail Mary had launched. Not as terrible as it could have been, but not easy. Humanity had survived and adapted, as it always did. There had been terrible wars. There had been incredible acts of kindness. There had been massive scientific breakthroughs. And now, there were two distant blips of Petrova-light, picked up by the Deep Space Network, hurtling home. Two probes, braking hard as they hurtled toward Earth holding the secrets to its salvation. They were late, or at least, not very early, but they were here.

    Grace may have made his peace with dying to save Rocky, but Rocky insists they return to Earth.

    Petulantly, Rocky says, “Grace sound stupid. Like child.”

    “I’m just talking how you talk, buddy.”

    “Yes. This is because I talk like child, to speak to stupid human.”

    “Well, you don’t have to do that,” I say without thinking.

    Summary

    “What are you talking about?” Grace's fingers played quick chords as he spoke. He didn’t even look as he did it, but it did not make them any less purposeful.

    “Discussing possible reasons why Tau Ceti is not infected while other stars are,” Eva replied deftly. “I would invite you to join, but we were just finishing—”

    “Oh, that’s easy.” His hand twisted a knob, and the notes came out sharper. “It is infected—Petrova Line and everything.”

    In Grace's opinion, dreaming about time traveling is no excuse for getting out of practice with his Eridian. To the rest of the Petrova Taskforce, it seems a bit odd that their resident Astrophage expert has suddenly taken to carrying a keyboard around and playing it whenever he speaks. Eva Stratt resolves to figure out what is going on.

    Summary

    Alfred knew from the first ring of the phone that something was wrong.

    He stumbled on suddenly unsteady feet; the world reeling sideways as a strange sense of déjà vu washed over him.

    It was the same sickening lurch he’d felt on the night Martha and Thomas died: a feeling like the proverbial rug had been pulled out from under his feet as the building blocks of the universe tumbled down around him. He’d had a few moments like that before, little flashes of premonition that made him wonder if Baroness Ortsey, that mad old witch in her cell under London, had done more than drug his tea one time. But none of those brief flashes could compare to what he’d felt that night: the debilitating swell of sickness that had opened up the pit of his stomach, accompanied by the harrowing, agonizing certainty that something had gone irrevocably wrong.

    The same feeling he had now.

    Something was wrong.

    Something was very, very wrong. And the phone just kept on ringing.

    It's the day before you're supposed to kick the King's butt.

    Something feels off about today. (maybe a deeper part of you can figure it out)

    Summary

    So people like me? The average Joe whose granddad wasn’t exposed to experimental radiation or fell into a toxic river, or was born under the star or Orias or something? We’re the soap bubbles. The thin paper people who still get torn, punctured, burned, and broken when not handled with care.

    It sucks. But that’s also true of life. So it's not a huge deal.

    It just means you have to be smart.

    I'm Robert Robertson the Third, and I'm Mecha Man.

    Summary

    So here's the thing: let it be known that Robert Robertson the III is not a quitter. Despite life seeming to only know how to punch down on him, he continues to crawl forward.

    He has hunted down Shroud for over fifteen years, he had rebuilt the Mecha Suit, and he managed, quite literally, the worst possible team in all of California.

    But this? This might be his breaking point.

    TLDR; Someone voluntold Robert to be shipped off to Japan to teach a bunch of kids. Robert and Z-Team are not okay with this.

    Summary

    Robert rolled his eyes, crossing his arms and letting his head fall back. "Enemies to lovers? More like enemies to friends back to enemies. Asshole," he muttered.

    “Still a better love story than Twilight." Flambae let out a cackle at his own joke, giving Robert a little bounce as he continued walking.

    "Besides. Not my fault you're so tiny. Makes carrying you around way too easy. If you were gay, you would be on the bottom, I bet. Little bottom bitch twink."

    Robert glanced up at him, looking very unamused. "Well. You'd be half right.” His gaze left, watching the cars going by.

    “Considering I'm bi."

    "Wait." Flambae paused in his walking.

    It took him a good few seconds to process the words, staring down at Robert with a bit of shock. "Wait, are you actually?"

    "...Me and Visi are open, too."

    Summary

    “Sooo have you actually had gay sex?” Victor asks genuinely curious.

    Robert tilts his head, an actual grin breaking through. “Have the news ever lied to you?”

    Everyone stares at Robert. He just shrugs.

    ---------

    Or the SDN makes the horrible executive decision to put Robert onstage as the Z-Team’s hero representative, fully aware that his PR experience consists of half a prayer and a legacy doing most of the heavy lifting. Robert takes the microphone and runs with it, feeding Los Angeles the most outrageous half-truths he can get away with.

    The Z-Team slowly realizes their dispatcher is a public menace.

    Unfortunately, they are completely whipped.

    Summary

    In which we explore some of the off-screen time between game scenes. Team bonding, dispatching, character studies, and various donuts eaten while on the job. Focus is mostly platonic and team-dynamics because I really really want more screen time with the other members of Z-Team... but I am also an action and angst writer, so buckle up. Not ACTUALLY writing a non-romantic Robert so much as Robert who is too fucking exhausted to do anything about, like, dating in Season 1? Something like that. The one-sided crushes go fucking HARD tho.

    Summary

    Unbidden, you imagine joining Siffrin and Isabeau at the booth, linking your arm with Siffrin's at the elbow and twining your fingers together like you so often want to. You picture a strained, begrudging smile. A hollow-cheerful oh, you're here. A cutting-off, a missed step, a broken ease.

    (Oblivious, out of place, in the way.)

    Your footsteps slow.

    You    aren't sure you should be here anymore.
