    Summary

    "If she wanted Aemond, her beloved rider, to be happy, the dragons must fly as one.

    If she had to send Lucerys and his dragon to the moment the division began for that to happen, she would do it.

    Lucerys was the one who marked her Aemond. He would also be the one who fixes everything."

    ---

    "You are in the Red Keep, in King's Landing," Answers the maester. "In the chamber of Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen."

    Lucerys feels a chill. He stutters, finally looking away from the maester.

    "Princess...Rhaenyra Targaryen?" His voice trembles, becoming high-pitched when he pronounces the name.

    (Or Vhagar knows what she's doing and tries to prevent the dragons from becoming extinct and more alone. Even if it means sending her rider's young obsession back in time before the disaster.)

    Summary

    “You flatter me.”

    Grace shakes her head. “I— I really don’t mean to.”

    “But you do.” Adrian insists. “You name planet that saved the universe after me. You name planet that seeded all life after me… now you tell me that I am something humans would like to adorn themselves with?”

    Summary

    A Rocky POV of Project Hail Mary, but add in a sprinkle of originally named astrophages, petrova lines, language barriers, trauma recovery, and extra, extra worldbuilding. Includes pre- and post-canon!

    La traduccion al espanol by MichiHolmes! Gracias!

    ***

    One day, his strumming was not answered.

    The silence that answered his one verse of song was horrible and grating. Incomplete. Empty. A sick, horrible fear built up inside him.

    (He was going to die out here. Alone.)

    ***

    "Iz huhg," Grace sniffled out, sucking back in moisture from his noze, too. There was moisture and water and everything all over the place. "Huhg meens grayt, grayt, grayt affekshun."

    "Oh," he said tentatively. Another hewmin thing! He shuffled closest to the wall Grace was huhging and leaned in. "Oh. Am I doing correctly, hmm?"

    "Yis," Grace sighed out, calming down. He still leaked, though.

    Oh, well. Leaky hewmins were his favorite, after all.

    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

    Grace knew that there were going to be cultural differences between Eridians and humans.

    Rocky knew this, too, but no matter how foolish humans could be, even the densest of them knew this was courting, right? Right??

    -
    AKA Grace keeps doing things that Rocky percieves as courting (per Eridian traditions) and is entirely clueless about it
