    Summary

    The live broadcast has taken over everything—news channels, livestreams, doctor’s offices, the muted TVs bolted into corners of cafés and airports.

    The same feed repeats everywhere: the launch of the shuttle to the Hail Mary, Earth’s last desperate hope. Footage of the launch preparations alternate with prerecorded statements from world leaders, a scrolling bar of names and credentials sliding across the bottom of the screen. The astronauts’ portraits are displayed in sequence, their faces and names proudly displayed, honoring those brave ones willing to give their lives for the future of Earth.

    Yao Li-Jie. Olesya Ilyukhina.

    And Ryland Grace.

    7,130 miles away, Colt Seavers looks up at the Starbucks television screen and drops his coffee.

    ---

    Or, the AU where Ryland Grace has a twin, and Colt Seavers is not taking the whole “sent into space to die” thing quietly.

    Incidentally, Stratt doesn’t know that he exists.

    Summary

    “Talk.”

    There’s a hitch of breath on the other end before Colt manages to speak.

    “I know you only said to contact you when there’s an emergency, but I think this really, really counts for one, man... there was an explosion near the site where Ryland was working. It happened yesterday. It’s all over the news. I came to his apartment and it’s… Court, it’s wiped. Everything’s gone. I’ve been trying to call him, but he’s unreachable.

    I have a really, really bad feeling. I didn’t know what to do.”

    or

    Ryland Grace, youngest sibling of Colton and Courtland Gentry Grace, has gone MIA after a lab explosion. His older brother finds out.

    Summary

    “Grace. What are you testing, question?”

    Rocky. I can’t put this all on the guy right now. He should be happy. We are going to Erid. We are going to save his planet.

    “CBC. A complete blood count.” I answer, hoping he doesn’t ask me why.

    “Purpose, question?”

    Rocky, please. I’m trying to spare you right now.

     

     

    Basically, Grace gets exposed to a dangerous amount of radiation during an EVA and doesn't want to tell Rocky bc of what happened to Rocky's crew <3

     

    THIS IS A REWORKED VERSION OF "TEMPEST" - after some comments, I wanted to keep the soul of the story, but make it more scientifically plausible. While there are still probably some inaccuracies, I still hope this isn't as messy as before.

    Summary

    “I know we only had you scheduled for two hours, but you have one more interview if that’s alright?”

    Clark smiled. Another interview? Sure, if it got him the job.

    “No problem,” he said. “May I ask who with?”

    “Oh, Mr. Luthor just wants to ask you a few things. He’ll be right down.”

    Mr. Luthor?

    Or, Clark Kent goes undercover at LuthorCorp.

    Summary

    “You can’t be,” Thanos says, pawing at the sheets beneath him as if seeking escape. He looks really scared. It’s throwing Namgyu off. “You can’t…you’re not- What is this? What’s happening?”

    “Thanos?” Namgyu asks.

    Thanos’s eyes widen. “What?”

    Shit. Something kind of fucked up must be happening. “You’re Thanos,” Namgyu says, not feeling all that sure of himself.

    Thanos shakes his head. The hands still pawing at the sheets are trembling. “What are you talking about? No I’m not.”

    Something really fucked up must be happening. “Then who are you?”

    “Choi Subong.”

    Fuck. Something super fucking fucked up is happening.
