AU. Beth Johanssen didn't sign up for this sort of adventure.

If it's not Honor, it's The Martian. Lewis warned the guys about hitting on Johannsen.

Still ANOTHER short one, covering Lewis' apology to Mark.

My muse's obsession with The Martian and short expansions continues unabated. Here, Lewis is telling Johannsen about her last-resort backup plan.

The obsession continues. This covers Melissa's lenient court-martial. (BTW, in the extended movie version, Mark finishes the analysis Lewis began before the mission was scrubbed)

My muse is obsessed with The Martian ATM. This covers the official announcement of the gravity assist manoeuvre. Rated M because...Annie.

In the novel she just says "If you think it'll work, I trust you." My muse reckoned there was more to it than that.

A short one about Melissa's TV interview (BTW, can't you just type in the subcategory rather than scrolling to find the one you want?).

When Olivia Brooks is selected as the 7th and final member of the Ares III mission, the one dream for herself has come true. She would finally be living out her dream of visiting Mars. But, what happens when disaster strikes, leaving her stranded on the Red Planet alongside Mark Watney?

Mark gets Beth's thoughts on whether his idea of having a rock for a ring is any good.

Venkat asks Teddy for satellite time, Teddy doesn't say no he just says not now. How are things back on Earth and Hermes as they believe Mark is dead. What will happen when they finally do get the pictures and discover Mark is alive? And how does Mark handle being all alone with no human contact for over a year? And what will his newly returned crew have to say about the situation?

They could do it. The question was should they do it. Could Melissa really ask everyone to commit treason in order to hijack the Hermes and go back to Mars and save Mark. Could she risk the crew just so she could get back the man she loves. She can't force them to do but she can ask. Something like this needs to be voted on.

They've fallen into a pattern by now. Sex, silence then she leaves and they don't speak about it. But he wants to be more then that. Is that wrong of him. He wants to know if they are together or not. If she feels for him as he does for her. He's getting tried of the pattern. Of the pain she leaves him with. Maybe he should push the subject.

Back on the Heremes after a successful but stressful day Mark and Melissa finally have the time to talk about everything little thing they have tried to keep hidden. What they really are to each other and what the future has in store for them.

(Sequel to 'First is Forever') Mark's recovery was 'high-stakes'. So were the Hearings. So was the future of Mars. Mindy Park noticed something in a grainy photo, and was suddenly in the room for all these matters; while also facing love, friendship, wedding plans, professional rivalries, and a possible career as an astronaut.

On Mars Mark decided to move to Western Australia to get away from Idaho. Now he's back he's checking it out. Rated T for Mark's usual profanity.

Mark Watney misses Taco bell so he decides to bring Taco Bell to Artemis

Mark Watney goes to Taco Bell however disaster strikes.

"The Journey Home Begins" tells the tale of how the Ares-III crew returned to Earth after the rescue of Mark Watney. What happens next?

I really enjoyed the book and movie of "The Martian". What happened after the end of the book?

Mark Watney considera que el otro marciano es muy callado.

I wake to the sound of voices. My entire body is throbbing, my breath is echoing around me, and I can hear my crew in my ears. This is nothing new, and for a moment, I forget where I am. I keep my eyes closed, cause the longer I do, the longer I can keep pretending that they are actually there, that I really can hear them, that I'm not alone on this godforsaken planet.

The Taiyang Shen intercept with the Hermes doesn't work. (Contains cannibalism. Also profanity.) [Darkest Night 2020 treat for MGVR.]

Annie Montrose's pre-press tour briefing did not include a section on what do to with world-famous astronauts hyperventilating on the floor of the men's room, but she'll do her best.

Maura Watney was on her way to becoming the most famous astronaut in history, and she wanted to bring her brother along for the ride. Mark was stuck on Mars because of her, and she was determined to bring him home. After all, if he was the first human to die on another planet, that would thoroughly steal her thunder; and she couldn't have that.
