Summary
Dr R Grace, Curator of Natural History is about to have his big moment. The Natural History galleries at the flagship museum he works for are being refurbished. Finally, his vision is going to come alive. But does he have the confidence to push for his ideas, or will his natural shyness prevent his dream from becoming reality?
Simon Gardiner is the gruff Assistant Manager of the Display Team. He’s responsible for helping Grace’s vision become reality. He doesn’t have time or bothered for relationships. But he does agree to a blind date… which he cancels. Simon has a past, one he’d rather forget. Will it catch up with him? (Of course it does)
Will they manage to have a professional working relationship, or will their proximity lead to something more?
Well, my hobby is writing smut with a story so…
For all of the meddlesome Mary’s and demented Dimitri’s of the museum world.

Summary
There was something to be said about how sad it was to be in your thirties, single, and spending your Friday nights talking to a stranger on the internet that you paid for naked videos of themselves.
But Ryland Grace was in far too deep to care.
There was something to be said about how sad it was to be a convicted felon, single, and spending your Friday nights making content for strangers on the internet who paid to see you naked.
But Simon Edenson had nothing left to lose.

Summary
Simon's new life had been almost perfect. Food, safety, and people who, for some reason, truly cared about him. Of course, nothing good could last forever; his own personal demon has somehow wormed its way into his new reality, and he won't let it hurt anyone else.
Why does it seem so scared?
OR
Ellie gets dropped into the biodome a few months after Simon, and, like him, eventually gets a safe life away from The Horrors (despite technically being a horror herself).

Summary
The deep sea has rules: keep your water pump close, don't let your jellyfish lamp go out, and never, ever swim toward the bioluminescent lights.
When Ryland and Rocky stumble into an ancient graveyard of sunken ships, they expect ghosts and crumbling wood. Instead, they find a trail of dark clouds fogging the stale water.
Then blood. So much blood. And at the center of it, a dangerous creature of the deep that Ryland's foolishly soft heart won't let him leave behind.

"Anomaly Simon very friendly toward 'little rocks' but frequently forgets Eridians fully sentient and capable medical professionals, statement."
Grace parses that. "He's not taking you seriously when you talk to him?"
"Keeps trying to hug nurses, statement. Upsetting. Upsetting."

Summary
Ryland Grace is in his final year of University, about to get his PhD. It’s great! It’s going to be his year, his moment, and nothing is going to ruin that.
Well.
Maybe one thing. Grace has a new roommate. Simon. He would laugh if he wasn’t sure Simon would kill him. How was he supposed to have his year when he couldn’t even talk to him?
Or
Bloody Mary college AU fic where Simon and Grace are roommates. Angst enemies to lovers with a happy ending.

Summary
“The thing is, I like him. And not even just because he’s the only human for 12 light-years. I think I’d like him even if we’d met on Earth, like on Stratt’s Vat. Or if we’d been coworkers at Grover Cleveland Middle. Simon is a good person. I like him.
We’re…something. We’re something more than something, we kind of have to be because of the whole only-humans thing. And the whole saved-from-the-void-of-space thing. But it feels kind of like the way that Rocky and I are more than something, only different.
And that’s the part that scares me.”
OR
About a year into the journey to Erid, a rescue mission brought another human onto the Hail Mary. Nearly three months later, he’s finally adjusted well enough to accept his new reality.
Grace kinda wants to do something about it. Unfortunately and above all else, Doctor Captain Ryland Grace is, and has always been, a fudging coward.

Summary
“Let it never be said that Simon of Eden doesn’t go down fighting.
He staggers on his feet, agony dripping from his open arteries and veins to join the masses pooling in around him, but he doesn’t fall. Around him, the SM-13 walls shudder with the force of the Eel’s wailing. Her words are bouncing around in his skull, rattling and horrendous.
But he is still alive. For now.”
OR
Simon dies at the bottom of an ocean of blood on AT-5. Except he doesn’t. Simon is re-captured by the C.O.I. and sentenced to death. Except he isn’t.
Simon is, apparently, safe here now– wherever HERE is.
Except he can’t be.

Summary
"There’s something out there.
It shouldn’t be possible, but my eyes aren’t lying to me right now. I don’t think, anyways.
There’s an actual Blip-freaking-D right out there. Floating in space. Menacingly.
Mary isn’t glitching. I feel like I might be sick."
OR
En route to Erid, the Hail Mary picks up a signal from an unknown object. It turns out to be a ship– an impossibly HUMAN ship, nearly 12 light-years away from anywhere that might make sense. Curiosity kills the cat, Grace and Rocky get a little bit more than they bargained for, and the Hail Mary might just have a new crewmate.
If he lives, that is.

Summary
It was suppose to be a short vacation, the Eridians had outfitted the Mary with enough supplies for the three of them - Grace, Rocky and Adrian to fly to the nearest solar system to check out the status of the latest taumoeba probe and check out the weird phenomenon that Erid's senors had noticed. But then Mary got stuck and stopped responding, they were all locked inside the Don't Go Crazy Room and there was some weird movie playing on the screen and nothing was making sense anymore.
The circumstances that the Convict found himself in was uncomfortably familiar and Grace didn't know how to deal with his feelings about it and what was done to him back on Earth - since he'd purposely been refusing too do so for years.
At least he had his best friends with him while he slowly became emotionally attached to a fictional character.But was Simon really fiction? Or was something else at play here?

Summary
The roots surrounding his body shed away in an instant, leaving Simon's consciousness tumbling back into himself at high velocity.
He had died. He was dead.
Right?
The light grew and pulsated around him as the pain from before returned to his body, pulling at his skin and digging its way into his bones. He didn't want to open his eyes, but something with a far stronger will than his own brought him to do it anyway.
And there, in the midst of the illuminating, blinding light, a hand reached out towards him.
It wasn't a conscious thought, but a voice echoed all around him and anchored itself behind his eyes.
I want to live.
Shaking, Simon reached back.
----------
After "dying" in the SM-13 Simon finds himself in a clean room; he's missing an arm and most of his belongings, but he is decidedly alive and he's determined to keep it that way.Series

Ryland Grace is fine. He’s perfectly fine, thank you. Between his twin brother making contact for the first time in two years, and the really rather attractive fireman who keeps having to rescue his adopted daughter’s new kitten from precarious places, Ryland Grace is fine. He’s lying, obviously.
A girldad!Grace x Firefighter Simon AU with a delightful sprinkling of Coltland Gentry brothers… prepare for angst (and so much found family fluff) <3

Pretty directly inspired by “Your Biggest Fan” by sunsetsundae and Vinnie748 aka the Simon Camboy AU except Simon is more of an Ero-Model in addition to camming.
A pent up Ryland Grace is dragged to an Erotica Expo after Rocky gifts him a winning raffle ticket to meet his favorite porn star/ero-model.
Or:
Camboy/Ero Model Simon is working an erotica expo doing a special offline meet and greet and Grace is one of his (no, he’s the top) supporters.

Summary
After crawling out of a pool of blood, Simon finds himself in the most unlikely scenario. He is on a foreign planet with an attractive scientist who offers him the safety and comfort he so desperately needs.
This peace is shattered, though, when Simon gets dragged back into the nightmare he came from. Ryland has no way to get to him. He's a scientist, not a dimension hopper. Simon knows he's doomed.
What he doesn't know is that Ryland has managed to beat the odds once before. He isn't one to give up so easily, especially when it comes to those he cares for.

Summary
Simon was stuck. The SM-13 wasn't responding, the monster was lurking outside somewhere and the light was slowly burning through the glass. He had limited oxygen left, Ava wasn't answering and he was pretty sure he was on concussion number 3.
But it was the terminal's insistent beeping that caught his attention. What was Project Hail Mary?
Simon pressed Enter.

Summary
Two weeks after the disaster of a conference that was meant to be his academic victory run and the successful start of the rest of his life as a molecular biologist, Ryland Grace escapes to one of Washington’s state parks. Hiding away in his twin brother’s cabin, Ryland has to come to terms with the fact that the life he worked so hard for had slipped right through his fingers because his ego had been larger than his logical brain, and now he’s haunted by a community of scientists and online enthusiasts yearning to run what little is left of his dignity into the ground.
But as a hike, one fuelled mostly by spite because obviously he didn’t learn his lesson just yet, goes south, he’s forced to call the rangers for help. And because life hates him, the ranger who told him not to wander into the woods is the one to take his call.
Something about ranger Simon’s disapproving and definitely disappointed look cuts deeper than he anticipated.

Summary
"The stars are gone. The planets have disappeared," was what Simon was taught all his life. He killed and he bled because fighting for food and for resources was all he was taught. And then Filament station went up in flames and 62 people died in the blast. Now Simon is in prison. Haunted by his own guilt as well as the vision of beautiful blue eyes and a bright yellow coat of a man he couldn't save in time.
Ryland Grace can't remember his life before but he can remember seeing this prisoner before death took him. And what's a ghost to do when they can't remember anything else but the last person they saw in life? Haunt them, he supposed.

Summary
The Manor is changing. It has been quite some time since the last ego appearance. The Manor was always considered an ‘anomaly’ (So are people sharing the same face!—argued engineer, forgetting about existence of twins). It seemed to know when exactly a new ego would arrive by making them a room.
Blood droplets are certainly not a room.
OR: I put Simon into the egoverse because I relate to him too much. English isn’t my first language and I do not have loving parents; that does not mean this is good. Let me know if I miss any tags.

Summary
In the beginning there was nothing, and with a light, everything came to be, the stories of old said. How fitting that the universe should die and be reborn in a flash of light as well.
Simon died down there, at the bottom of an ocean in blood. He knew it, deep in his heart. Which is why he's very confused when he wakes up still on AT-5, being stared at by the very monster that led to his death.
