    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

    Adrian’s below us. A beautiful swirl of greens. With a view like that, I can only stay a little mad at it with the little “almost killed us” fiasco. Unfamiliar constellations and the arm of the Milky Way fill the rest of my view. I start panning my view closer to Tau Ceti when I spot it.

    It’s another Hail Mary.

    Summary

    Adrian (and a couple of others) are fully aware that Grace is an adult, but there is a reason that Rocky sent a secret message to Adrian with far more information than the one he sent to the government. They can keep on thinking Grace (and the surprise human) are pebbles, it gives Adrian more leverage than they realize.

    Rocky will not wake up to their friend being locked away if Adrian has anything to say about it, and Adrian has a lot to say.

    Summary

    It started with two space probes.

    That, really, was too simplistic. It started with many, many stars losing luminosity, and two different species sending expeditions to the one nearby star that hadn’t. The survivors of those expeditions worked together, and solved the problem, and saved both their stars. That was the true start of it.

    But for all practical purposes, it started with two space probes, passing each other in the blackness of space.

    How the people of Earth and the people of Erid confuse pretty much all other space-faring peoples because they get along quite well, despite their differences.
