Chapters: 3/4 Fandom: Project Hail Mary - Andy Weir, Project Hail Mary (2026) Rating: Explicit Length: 22k Relationships: Ryland Grace/Rocky Characters: Ryland Grace, Rocky (Project Hail Mary) Additional Tags: POV Ryland Grace, Journey to Erid (Project Hail Mary), Trans Ryland Grace, Ryland Grace & Rocky are Best Friends, With Benefits Exclamation Point!, Xenophilia, Ryland Grace is a Leaky Space Blob, Vaginal Sex, Vibrators, Praise Kink, Dom/sub Undertones, Oviposition Series: Part 3 of Science and Progress (Do Not Speak as Loud as My Heart) Summary:

The egg is the same bright copper color as the rest of Rocky’s body, but smooth where his carapace is bumpy and brittle, the first Eridian-made object I've ever seen with curved edges rather than flat panels and sharp corners. It has a slight taper as well, narrowing upwards from its widest point.

Rocky’s words echo in the back of my mind: “Grace would be perfect at take many ♪♪♫.”

I jam the dissection probe through the shell.

“Grace lie,” Rocky says impatiently. “Stop wasting time. Tell what is wrong, now.”

Well, I’m not doing that. Even if I wanted to, I don’t know how I'd even begin explaining to Rocky that the only thing wrong with me is the fact that I want him to pin me down with his voice, shake out half a dozen orgasms, and then knock me out for good measure.

So we're going with plan B: time to fool the walking lie detector.

It takes Eggsy three seconds to tear his eyes off the feed, slam the laptop shut, Apparate to Harry’s side, and somehow manage to get back to St. Mungo’s with the added weight.

It takes him another two minutes to realize that Harry’s glasses are still on his face. And despite the fact that the left bow is hanging on for dear life by a single thread of PVC-coated wire beneath the shattered remnants of the lens, the tiny little LED atop the brow is still blinking obediently.

Merlin’s goddamn balls. He’s fucked.

Theo’s stomach gave a jolt. “I thought a sudden bout of charity seemed a little too out of character for you.”

“Mm. Not your best, if I’m being honest."

“That would be a first.”

“Much better.”

With perhaps a little more force than was strictly necessary, Theo cupped his hand around Lapin’s waist.
