    Summary

    Simon’s breath caught in his chest. Even through the haze of pain and death, this man was . . . beautiful. Dirty blonde hair that stuck up every which way it wanted to, shocking blue eyes that felt like they could peer straight through his tainted soul, framed by the crinkles of smile lines, and speaking of, an excited smile, looking at Simon as if he wasn’t a murderer, a monster, someone worthy, maybe even deserving of being saved, of being in their presence. And his wings. The purest white that Simon had ever seen. No one had white wings, the only time he’d seen wings this white was in depictions of . . .

    Angels.

    -

    Fic inspiration from TikTok user: @purple_jellyfish222

    Wing AU where humans are pre-dated from birds. White winged humans quickly went extinct during the Quiet Rapture, and with a vast majority of humanities information on wildlife lost with Earth. So when Simon wakes from what should have been his death to see Ryland Grace, with the pure white wings of swans, he thinks he's met an angel.

    Summary

    You ever see a fly endlessly bumping against a window so you open the window to let it out instead of just getting the swatter like usual. And it's all just on a whim?

    So, anyway, Simon somehow finds himself floating in space after screaming at a giant eye in an endless red void.

    Grace and Rocky are on the way to Erid when they come across an iron submarine with a dead eel monster hanging off the end.

    Simon gets to heal, Grace gets to interact with another human again, and Rocky gets to watch the incredibly awkward courtship rituals of these two disasters (affectionate).

    (AKA, it's my turn to play with the BloodyMary boys! :D )

    Summary

    Dr. Rocky Ortiz wakes up in space, without knowing how he ended up there. As his memories come back, he remembers his goal is to save his star, the Sun, from a threat called "astrophage". The only way he can achieve that, is to give his best... and maybe befriend someone unexpected along the way.

    The Project Hail Mary movie, but with James Ortiz as Human!Rocky and Eridian Grace with Ryan Gosling's voice (because Rocky has a crush on him and nobody can make me change my mind about that!) Also, some of the Eridian names are inspired by "Saving Grace" by CptnBara, so, shoutout to that ABSOLUTELY AMAZING fanfic, please go read it!

    Summary

    Three years after the probes carrying Taumoeba and Dr. Ryland Grace's final message arrive on Earth, humanity launches an interstellar spaceship with a brand new mission. Thirty-six crew members (including two graduates of a certain San Franciscan junior high school) travel to the star 40-Eridani to make friendly contact with the Eridians and bring them the alien life form from Tau Ceti-E that can save their star if Dr. Grace's sacrifice failed.

    Grace, now fifty-seven years old, is just trying to balance his life as a teacher while no longer being the only human on the planet anymore. It's a big adjustment, but Rocky and the Terra's Grace crew are going to make sure he's well taken care of.

    Summary

    Grace has come to terms with the fact that he will never see another human or Earth again. And that's okay, because he's happy on Erid with Rocky and Adrian. However, with the Hail Mary in mint condition, the Eridians propose that he travels to a red moon in a planetary system with a dead sun, along with Adrian and Rocky, to determine just why it's so...weird. The answer's no. Obviously.

    Until they hear a human distress signal coming from that exact moon, and suddenly everything changes.

    Summary

    “Don’t let the blood get into your ship, okay?”

    That made Grace pause. “What?!”

    “If I die, you have to get my body out of here,” the man pleaded, but Grace had to go. His oxygen was out. The guy would be dead in six minutes. “You have to get me out, even if I’m dead. Hey!”

    “Just hold on!” Grace propelled himself through zero gravity, away from the radio.

    “Don’t leave me here-!” The roar echoed through the ship halls.

    ---

    When Ryland Grace complained about being a little bored, maybe a little lonely, he thought a nostalgic trip around Erid would fix him right up. The last thing he expected was to find deadly space bacteria in deep space and a human. Alive.

    Summary

    Confirmation bias: the human tendency to search for, interpret, and recall information that aligns with our existing beliefs, while ignoring or dismissing evidence that contradicts them.

    No matter what Grace tries to tell him, Simon is very sure that the man is divine in nature. It just makes sense.

    ~~~

    Simon winds up in The Enclosure, naturally. Grace is super down to have human company on planet Erid, but he really wishes someone would have given him a little bit of warning first. Especially about Simon’s religious cult upbringing — if he had known about that, he maybe could have planned a better-worded greeting that wasn’t basically, “Be Not Afraid.” He really set them up for failure with that one.
    (Simon thinks he's dead and that Grace is an angel for A While due to continued misunderstandings)

    Summary

    [...]

    Grace comes home to find a bleeding human inside his closet, of course, the next step would be helping the said bleeding human to good health without informing the law enforcement.

    Summary

    Simon's POV

    Simon is stuck in someone else's paradise, and he's just figured out what that's gonna cost him. He should be grateful. With no way to go home, this is the second chance at life he never thought he'd get. Even if it's a life with just himself, Grace's biodome, and Grace, it's life...so he better start getting his priorities straight.

    AKA: How Simon and Grace navigate the power imbalance that comes with them being the only two people around for lightyears. It's not going well...

    Come for the uneven power dynamic. Stay for Simon eldritch angst.

    Summary

    Ryland Grace saved Earth, he saved Erid. He was supposed to die a hero somewhere between the stars.

    Or at least he should have, if not for a certain Eridian who has taken a great offense to the short, finite nature of human life. Instead of cherishing the limited time left, Erid reworked the foundation of what was considered scientifically possible—they found a way to turn their resident alien into an Eridian.

    But operating a whole new body-plan is not as easy as it may seem.

    For once, Rocky didn’t comment on my leaking face. Didn’t call me gross or make fun of me otherwise. So I did it for him.
    “Yeah,” I sniffed, half-laughing through it. “Humans leak, ew.”
    Because, well—
    This might be the last time I ever cried.
    “No, Grace leak as much as want. Is okay!” Rocky rushed in immediately, all urgency and overlapping chords.
    “Well, you weren’t going to, so someone else had to do it.”
    He paused. “No understand. Is joke, question?”
    “Yeah,” I said, sniffling a little. “It’s a joke.”
    “Still no understand humor.”

    Summary

    “Simon, as far as I’m concerned, you can stay for as long as you want. No question about it. Just get some rest, okay?”

    Well. That settled it. This man was either fucking stupid, or he was the most kind hearted person that Simon had ever met. Deep down, he had a feeling he already knew which one.

    He looked up at Ryland with heavy, drooping eyelids to see hair sticking out in every direction, glasses askew, and a big cozy sweater swallowing his frame. Cute.

    If Simon didn’t watch himself, he was going to be in big fucking trouble. As his eyes fluttered closed, he also got the sense that it was already too late.

    Or: Two very clueless men cry and hug each other. They fall in love in the process. Then maybe they kiss and stuff too.

    Summary

    It feels like he’s standing over two dead bodies all over again, alone in space. It feels suffocating, the weight of knowing that there's another person here who he can actually try to save this time. But Ryland can't give up. He can't bring himself to wallow in the pain of it like he wants to, not when the man looks like that and he could actually help him. He has a chance now to save this man.

    Summary

    Simon wakes, and doesn't find Grace beside him. Rather, in the claws of an Eridian that is clearly kidnapping him.

    Bad things then happen, and after that, better things happen. Then they have to deal with the fallout. (The fallout is most of the fic. Fallout means that the physical damage post kidnapping is perhaps the easiest consequence to deal with.) After all, your own mind is often your worst enemy<3
