“What that, question?” Rocky asks instead of answering the question. He’s got his light gun thingy pointed at the screens. “Hm? You know what the stars are, buddy.” Grace doesn’t think much of it, but Rocky goes quiet. “Have not seen like this before.”

Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Project Hail Mary (2026), Project Hail Mary - Andy Weir Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Ryland Grace & Rocky Characters: Ryland Grace, Rocky (Project Hail Mary) Additional Tags: Time Travel, Hurt/Comfort, Happy Ending, Ryland Grace & Rocky are Best Friends, Ryland Grace and Rocky are Platonic Soulmates, it’s just that one of them doesn’t know it yet. don’t worry about that though, Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, POV Ryland Grace, grace gets one (1) swear. as a treat Summary:
The day Ryland Grace proves the Carl Hypothesis and discovers how to breed Astrophage, a probe is spotted in the outer regions of the solar system. When it’s recovered, the words TO SOLVE ASTROPHAGE PROBLEM are found written on the outside, and below that is written in slightly smaller text, Deliver to Ryland Grace.
Grace, unfortunately, has no idea what’s going on.

“Adrian will understand,” Rocky says confidently. “Will be excited to meet alien. Will be excited to meet person who brought me home.”
“Yeah, and I’m excited to meet them too, but after that!” Is this a translation error? A cultural miscommunication? How is Rocky not getting it? “You’re partners. They’re not going to want some alien around while you’re, like… going on dates and all that.”
“Does not mean no time for Grace.” Rocky’s starting to sound frustrated. Part of me feels bad, but the rest is just as frustrated. “Why think this, question? On Earth, just abandon friends when have mate, question?”
It’s so clearly a rhetorical question, to which the answer is obviously supposed to be no, of course not. I freeze up anyway.

“Do you think,” Grace says after a moment, suddenly quiet. “Do you think there’s other universes where we’re friends? Or did we just get really lucky in this one?”
That’s barely even a question. Rocky’s sure of it. In every universe where they meet, he’s certain they’ll become friends. He can’t imagine it otherwise.

Dear @rbtfics !
Your works Call me here ( I will appear) and Stuck in the Permafrost are amazing! Both of them work with such interesting topics and of course Leo centered. There is never enough Ghost Leo/ time loop fics out there.

Christmas Kindness Event Post
So last month I got hit by a car and died right. Which I didn't initially realize until I watched some guy haul my body into his pickup and drive off. Which, being that it's deep in rural Michigan, I assume means my body will make some venison jerky and maybe some wall decoration, and I'll be resigned to being one of hundreds of deer ghosts floating around Saginaw, which is w/e. But then I find out the guy works at a taxidermy shop or something, and he's actually pretty good at stuffing and mounting deer carcasses, which I come to find out when I find myself face to face with my old body in the shop window. So naturally, I figure since ghosts need to possess something to interact with the living world and etc etc etc the most logical thing to do is to possess my own body, since it's basically a statue of myself. And a little surprisingly, it actually fits like a glove. Like, since it's my body, it feels like stepping right back into place. So I get out of town and back to my herd, eventually. And that's where the trouble starts coming into it, because after I get settled again, I don't know how to explain to everyone else what feels so weird. Like since I can move my body and do everything I used to do, it's functionally the same, like nothing happened. Or it SHOULD be, so I don't know how to explain how it's NOT. But it's just hard to explain it to someone who's never been hit by a truck I guess
i miss writign. </3
