Writing a swap AU. Here's the plan for characters :3
Simon - electrical engineer with a speciality in propulsion devices. Was working for the army to develop weapons. Blew up the test facility testing one of his devices, killing 6 people. It broke the record for the most amount of energy outputted by a purely electrical propulsion device. But alas, he was imprisoned for 30 years for neglectful actions and manslaughter. He worked for the government, someone's head had to roll.
Stratt freed him under the condition he worked for her as she needed his knowledge to develop the Hail Mary, something that would be propelled through space for 11 years. He accepted in the hopes he could "make up" for his sins.
Adrien (She/they pronouns) - Chemist specialising in Arophage. After their crew started dying, she discovered radiation, becoming the first Eridian Astrochemist . But it was already too late. The engineer on the ship had already died, and she was the only one healthy enough to help their crew. They tried their best, but in the end, she was the only one who survived. They barricaded themself into their lab next to the astrophage supply, and for the next 40 years, she did nothing but experiment on atrophage. In the hope that she would be rescued, and with their knowledge of atrophage she could "make up" for not being able to save their crew by helping the next team that came.
Grace - A science teacher on the Eden space station. One day, he was asked to be a part of the frontiering science crew that would go with the crew to raid Filiment Station. Their job was to go in after Filiment Station was captured to secure the science equipment, scientific procedures, and safety checks. He did not want to go, but his twin brother Colt was on the army raiding the station, and Colt promised to keep Grace safe. He reluctantly accepted.
But it didn't go to plan. He saw his brother be enveloped in flames, reaching out for his hand. But Grace froze in fear and ran. He was captured by the C.I.O. He went down into the Iron Lung on a scientific expedition without hesitation in the hopes he could "make up" for his cowerdness and actually do something good for a change.
That is all for now >:3
Plan rn -
It will probably be a collection of works as I want to delve into all their back stories before they met. But at the same time, I'm trying to keep the scope relatively tame, so idk exactly how long it will be.

Act 1 - Off Guard
Chapter 1
Grace stands at the front of a classroom filled with children. The room is dim, lit by only a few bulbs hanging from the roof, shining warm light onto the faces of the children, his children. He’s not any of their biological fathers, and he has no one waiting at home for him. But in this room with metal rusted walls plastered with handmade science posters, model planets hanging from the ceiling, and chairs filled with excited faces, he doesn’t feel that so-called ‘call’ to start a family that many other people have told him about. Or at least he doesn’t feel guilty for never feeling it. He has children, and he is sure that he loves some of them more than their biological parents do.
“Who can tell me the speed of light?”
He browses the room with his eyes, peering slightly over the thin rusted rim of his glasses, into the sea of children, their minds thinking over the question. One child raises her hand with such excitement and force that Grace panicked for a second that she might rip it out of its socket.
”Olivia!” Grace points to a young girl, her frizzy hair tied into a low pony tail and sitting with a wooden ruler straight back.
”186,000 miles per second!” She says, trying to hide her pride.
”10 points to Olivia!” Grace excites, followed by a high clap of his hands. She pushes the glasses gently sitting on her nose up with pride.
Before Grace could fire another question towards the children, a boy calls out from the back of the room,
“Is that why Father says the lights in the sky at are just the dying remains of stars? Because they are so far away, and light takes a long time to reach us?” He inquires with such innocent curiosity, yet fully exposed to the world.
This question catches Grace off guard. Grace is not a religious guy, but he knew who the child was referencing when he said ‘The Father’. That being the Father of Eden, the religious leader of the “Totally not death cult of a spaceship they all currently call home”, as Grace puts it in private. Grace was not fond of him.
Grace could give him credit for being an alright science communicator. Because Grace was very fond of science communication, it's why he’s standing in front of a classroom full of children teaching them science. He talks about how important nature, science, and community is, enforcing how important it is to keep the Last Tree of Eden alive. But then taking that a step further and convinced everyone that human blood is the only thing that will keep it alive, aka consensual human sacrifice, was a bit much for Grace. That’s when his then 13 year old brain clocked out.
(Like yeah sure blood can be a short term substitute for water for a tree, before the soil becomes too degraded. But GOD DAMN we do not need to make it our whole thing guys. If he wanted population number control, there are lots of other ways to achieve that. Another one of Grace's private comments).
Grace took a second to recentre himself. It was a great question, using things he’s learnt in class, and applying the knowledge to his real life. Grace could not fault him, or not answer the question, he thinks he might explode with guilt if he did that.
Grace gives a half assed chuckle to play off his second of obvious odd behavior.
”Great question Nick” Grace starts through slightly gritted teeth. ”And you are 100% right. The universe is extremely large, larger than the human mind can fully comprehend. And so because light travels at, Olivia”
”168,000 miles per second” she replies, almost squealing with excitement.
”It can take a long time before the light from other stars reaches us here. And so when the star stops radiating light, we might still see it as radiating light because all its light has yet to reach us. And so…”
He hates putting it this way, it's too depressing for him, not that he is unable to recognise how depressing it is, he just doesn’t like to bring up bumper topics in class.
”… Some of the lights in the sky are just the remains of stars that have already died long ago. Aka the dying remains of the star.” He doesn’t exactly know why he added that part at the end. Artistic flare?
the children all nod in understanding. But none fully grasp the concept of what it means to lose all the stars in the universe. Photosynthesis was their next unit. And honestly Grace is not looking forward to when their child like innocents is torn away from each and everyone of his children. When they finally relise what the sentence ‘the dying remains of the stars’ really means. That’s when they are given the information to be fully exposed to the world, no, the universe.

“Hey Dad! Can you help me with my homework?” Holly shouted into the expanse of their house. Still the rental she begrudges. She is sitting on the edge of the sofa, looking down over a text book laid out on the coffee table. Next to it sits a maths worksheet titled ‘Trigonometry’, her worst subject…

Summary:
Casey’s wrists itched. He was nowhere near LA anymore. But they still itched.
It has been almost a year since Lars found him and his car wrapped around a tree out front of his house. Casey believed he was always going to have to fight for his peace. He believed he was unworthy of the kindness and quietness that people always talked about. Of settling down and building a life beyond car chases and bullets. Destined for the streets. So when Lars took him in, showed him nothing but kindness and peace, it felt wrong.
