Summary
"What if I help you?" Grace blurts out desperately, sweating even in the coolness of his house as his words finally manage to stop Adrian from storming out.
"What?" Adrian says after a tense moment.
"I can prove it to everyone," Grace says, his heart in his throat. "I'll - I'll make you and Rocky the most celebrated couple on Erid. I promise."
"Stupid human," Adrian hisses. "You would give up your chance for him just like that?"
"Yes," Grace says hoarsely.
"Anything for him."
***
Adrian does not like Grace.
Which sucks, really, since Grace loves Adrian's husband and all.

Summary
“What are you talking about?” Grace's fingers played quick chords as he spoke. He didn’t even look as he did it, but it did not make them any less purposeful.
“Discussing possible reasons why Tau Ceti is not infected while other stars are,” Eva replied deftly. “I would invite you to join, but we were just finishing—”
“Oh, that’s easy.” His hand twisted a knob, and the notes came out sharper. “It is infected—Petrova Line and everything.”
In Grace's opinion, dreaming about time traveling is no excuse for getting out of practice with his Eridian. To the rest of the Petrova Taskforce, it seems a bit odd that their resident Astrophage expert has suddenly taken to carrying a keyboard around and playing it whenever he speaks. Eva Stratt resolves to figure out what is going on.

Summary
No-Game AU, The Beta kids are now about twenty-four years old and feeling the first real trappings of adulthood... And the trolls are...?
John finds himself listless and depressed, muddling through adulthood, far disconnected from his previous friends, who he has not heard from in eight years. He's twenty-four now, living in the California Bay Area, working at Skaianet, and has never been more repressed in his entire life.
He's dragged back into the fray that was averted eight years ago when Doc Scratch, indignant, kicks his ass into narrative deployment by pulling a few strings. Doc Scratch isn't in control of everything though, and it seems that he didn't account for one Rose Lalonde meeting John simply by chance.
This catastrophic hookup will change June's life forever, she just doesn't know it yet... Oh, and probably end the world, but that's for later.Thank you to my lovely beta reader, judderkash!
