Summary
“This okay?” Simon muttered, the vibrations from his words rippling across Grace’s stomach.
“Yes… yes I just…” Grace struggled to catch his breath. “This was not how I was expecting tonight to go.”
Simon paused his kisses. “How did you see this going?”
“I don’t know. We would… talk about it?”
“Do you want to talk instead?”
Grace couldn’t even remember what he wanted to say. Actually, there were no words that described what he wanted. “No. No, keep going.”

Summary
The blond’s hands are raised up above his head, slowly, like a trail of blood from an open wound, blue eyes set on him from the ground, footsteps cautiously making their way towards Simon’s bed ladder. Simon’s knees come to curl in towards his stomach, his arm going to wrap itself securely around his legs, only for the sensation to never reach them. A quick glance to his empty shoulder, and Simon looks towards the top of the bunk, blinking away the burning in his eyes.
Ryland is approaching him like he’s a rabid dog, and, for once, Simon wishes someone didn’t see him as one that bites.
Simon wishes that he didn’t feel like a ghost walking around in his own skin, anymore. He was so, so tired.
“I’m not an animal,” Simon huffs out, turning his face towards the other human, and Ryland vaguely notes the fact that, in the light, one of his eyes looks a deep, crimson red.
“I didn’t mean to-”
“I know. Nobody ever does.”
OR
Simon has a nightmare, and Ryland has a perfect idea on how to help.

Summary
After years of believing he was going to be alone forever, Ryland Grace is informed of a spacecraft drifting near Erid. The survivor he pulls aboard is Simon: younger, scarred, broad-shouldered, and carrying enough religious trauma to fill a spaceship. As recovery turns into late-night conversations, shared nightmares, and one very crowded bed, two men who have both been starved of human touch begin to realize that survival is easier when someone is there to reach back.
or
Ryland Grace rescues a human he thought he’d never find. Simon is wounded, haunted, and convinced he doesn’t deserve saving. Ryland disagrees.
EDIT: this story now has two endings like a choose-your-own adventure novel

Summary
To be honest, Grace did have his doubts about him.
When the new human first woke up, he punched Grace in the face and tried to run away. He didn’t speak for his first three days of being conscious. Not the best first impression.
Rocky, in the meantime, had one job. He was specifically tasked with building this new human a place to stay. Grace hadn’t made time for blueprints, too busy fumbling the situation that was his first real human in over fifteen years.
Grace didn’t realize ‘please build the new human a place to stay’ would be translated into ‘expand my home! the human will be living with me!’

Summary
Grace is tasked with documenting Simon's mutations in order to better help the Eridian medical team care for him. Normally he would be thrilled by the prospect of getting to research something new, but it doesn't take long for him to realize that there's a very big problem with this.
Namely, the fact that he might be a little too interested in Simon's mutations.

Summary
Ever since Simon was brought to Erid, he and Grace can never find themselves on the same page and they do not get along. But Grace is determined to befriend him. Can they learn to live together under the same roof?
I feel guilty having written this because it is so completely self-indulgent and probably inaccurate. It was supposed to be shorter and wayyyy more angsty, but it quickly devolved into a bunch of cheesy, cliche moments with some eventual smut. I’ve literally never written a fanfiction before, so there’s not much of a plot besides these two space dudes falling in love.
If that sounds like your cup of tea, then I hope you enjoy!!

Summary
While Simon had never thought about it, the fact that Ryland has had relationships made sense. Who wouldn't want to be loved by this man?
What didn't make sense was that someone had broken up with the man? Had had Ryland all to herself and decided that she didn't want him?!?
Fuck Linda, that stupid bitch!I.e. Simon is offended that anyone would willingly dump Ryland Grace.

Summary
Ryland Grace was supposed to be doing the dishes.
He was.
He was doing the dishes.
Yep. His hands were in the soapy water and he was definitely touching a plate (maybe it was a bowl…)
He was definitely doing the dishes and not watching what was happening outside the window.
Because what was happening was just gardening.
