  Summary

  "Simon, are we like, engaged?"

  Okay, he wasn't calm. He was borderline shrill. It didn't help when he watched Simon swallow painfully, face losing colour, turning pale and nervous.

  "...No?"

  Grace's eyebrows shot up into his hairline. "You're not sure?"

  ***

  Or, that time Grace and Rocky steal Simon away from the blood ocean and the starless universe tries to take him back.
