Summary
“The- The goddamn-... baby shit!”
“Holland,” Jackson took a step forward, hands outstretched slightly with his palms to the sky like he wanted to grab the younger man but by the grace of God, stopped himself. He shook his head, expression incredulous. “What the hell are you talking about?”
“Yo-You know! The-The stuff!” Holland shrieked, hands flapping in the air. His lips pulled into a frown as he took a few stumbling steps back, narrowly avoiding falling back into the bed-nest. God, he was a mess.
Jackson glared. “If you say that again I’m gonna kill you.”
“The pregnancy stuff. I-I mean, I’m no James- fucking- Dean, let’s be honest. Holly was a big baby, okay?! My stomach looks like a-a deflated party balloon. I have so many stretch marks, if I went to the zoo, they’d throw me in with the goddamn tigers. And I-...” Holland faltered, and for the first time since Jackson had met him, Holland looked genuinely stricken, as if he had reminded himself of something he’d rather soon forget.
Something he couldn't forget.
______________________
Alternatively: Holland figures Jackson wants nothing to do with him because of how his body looks post-pregnancy. Jackson proves him wrong.

Summary
"I find you attractive, you find me attractive. I don’t like you, you don’t like me, so we don’t need to pretend this is anything other than scratching an itch one time. And…I’m very good. You won’t be disappointed.”
For a long moment, Sebastian is silent. Those twin eyebrow creases had grown deeper the longer Jacob spoke, once he realized how dead serious Jacob was. Finally, he says through gritted teeth, “I don’t find you attractive.”
Jacob rolls his eyes. “Sebastian, don’t say no based on a lie. If you want to say no, then say no, but don’t lie about it.”
Sebastian has an old problem, and Jacob gets a new neighbor.

Summary
As he stared down into the lumpy grey goop that was his evening rations, he contemplated whether it was really worth it.
They’d come a very long way just for Grace to give up and die at the last hurdle, both physically and emotionally. The Tau Ceti system was a long, long way away now, and Grace had faced not one but two highly emotional suicide missions. Three, if you counted the time before he was given a military grade roofie and hucked into space without his memories.
Rocky and Grace make it back to Erid! Huzzah!
Now they have to navigate all of... that.- Language:

Summary
Lu Guang’s conducting degree is one year away. All he has to do is stay the course: go to class, mark his scores, practice four hours a day, keep his technique flawless. Then he crosses paths with Cheng Xiaoshi—a naturally talented prodigy who plays violin like he’s breaking the rules on purpose. All tattoos, piercings, and a grin sharp enough to make Lu Guang forget himself.
“You’re a pianist, aren’t you?”
“Conductor.”
“Pianist with a stick, then.”Idiot.
He should be the opposite of Lu Guang’s type. But instead, he can't seem to get him out of his head, and suddenly the future he thought was fixed starts to shift under his feet.
