Summary
How is anyone supposed to handle something like this? How was he supposed to? Just- one step at a time. One damn thing at a time.
Robert thought he died in the battle against Shroud. A bullet to the head trying to save Beef. Yet when he woke up right after his coma he realized he'd have to handle the insanity all over again from the start.

Summary
Ryland Grace spent four years at MIT hating Mark Watney with every fiber of his academically exhausted soul.
Mark was loud, reckless, impossible to ignore, and somehow good at everything without even trying. Grace was neurotic, emotionally repressed, and one failed experiment away from becoming a supervillain. Naturally, they became rivals immediately.
Then Rebecca — Grace’s girlfriend — got tired of dating a physics paper with anxiety and dumped him for Mark.
Which only made the hatred worse.
Six years later, humanity discovers Astrophage, the sun starts dying, and Grace suddenly finds himself recruited into the most important scientific project in human history. During a conversation with coworkers, he casually mentions his old college rival — only to learn Mark Watney was left behind on Mars and is presumed dead.
Grace reacts to this information… concerningly badly.
More to come.

Summary
This is a series of interconnected fics set in a post-canon universe where Robert and Flambae are easing their way slowly—and a little awkwardly—into an actual relationship.
The fics are in chronological order, not necessarily in publishing order, but you can read them either way! At some point maybe I'll string all of them together with some transitional scenes and make an actual full-length fic, but for now they're just shortfics!
