Summary
The timer she’s set still has a minute and 27 seconds left when Eva decides to text Grace, summoning him to her quarters. It makes no sense to wait the remaining time out. Not when the stupid piece of plastic has the clearest and brightest 2 lines she’s ever seen. She doesn’t have much to go by, she’s never actually taken a pregnancy test before, but there’s no mistaking it for anything but what it is. Of course her first time would be now: at 43 years old and in the middle of trying to save humanity from extinction. Of course.

my take on the strattland pregnancy fic.

Summary
A little over thirteen years after the Hail Mary launch, Eva Stratt is released from prison to assist the world’s bickering space agencies after a junior NASA technician spots an unidentified object near the orbit of Neptune. It appears to be on a direct collision course with Earth, and is moving so quickly it does not appear to be affected by any local gravitational forces, not even that of Sol. Oh, and one more thing—it seems to be slowing down.
OR
Captain Dr. Ryland Grace pilots the Hail Mary home long before (and long, long after) its mission is supposed to be complete. In their desperate venture beyond their solar system, humanity may have just accidentally unlocked a new chapter in interstellar physics.

Summary
One day, your dearest friend in the universe asks you what your name is.
You say, what, and do not tap a question. (This is one of many weird linguistic quirks you've picked up recently. It's one of your favourites. It's a funny way to be flat and vaguely judgemental, to imply nonplussed bafflement.)
~~
We all know how it is; you save each other's lives, you save each other's worlds, you undertake an interstellar journey with only each other for company, and then eventually you realise that you have no idea what the other person's name actually is.

Summary
Ryland Grace awakens back on Earth, confused, hurting, and missing his best friend. He made it back, but barely. Will he ever be strong enough to face a world who believes him a hero, or confront the reality of the planet he left behind? And above all else, is he ready to finally seek closure from the one woman who is responsible for all of it?

Summary
I lived with this hunger long before the Hail Mary. This is nothing new. I’m fine.
Right up until Rocky asks another question.
“When last time you touch other human person skin, question?”
Oh. Oh no. “When I… a few days after I first woke up here.”
Rocky starts to relax for a split second, but then tightens when something occurs to him.
“Grace crewmates dead when you wake up. You said this, statement. You not even know your own name, remember nothing, see dead bodies, confirm?”
I nod, because if I open my mouth I will gag.
“When last time Grace touch ALIVE human person, question.”
I swallow thickly. I don’t answer aloud because I know Rocky can hear the hitch in my breath. My stomach churns with fresh bile. He senses my vital signs tick over into stress patterns and goes very, very still again.
“Grace. When last time, question.”
I clench my jaw so hard my temples ache, and beg him with my eyes to just stop.
“Grace. Please say not when… when Evil Stratt humans put you to sleep.”
I can taste grass.
