    Summary

    Ryland looked down at his clipboard, where he had written a reasonable script, supplied earlier that day by Adrian. Unfortunately, the moment his eyes landed on the words, his brain supplied only terrible ways to say them.

    He chose the worst one.

    “I need flowers with prominent reproductive structures.”

    The man went completely still.

    Ryland could feel his soul attempting to leave his body.

    “For a plant anatomy lab,” he added quickly. “For my students. Middle school students. Not–” He cut himself off, because there was simply no end to that sentence that would improve his situation. Instead, he just weakly smiled, and added “Science.”

    -:-:-

    Ryland Grace is brilliant with biology, awkward with adults, and far too invested in giving his students the lessons they deserve. Simon Fleischer is a guarded florist who trusts plants more than people and has no interest in being needed by anyone again. But when a forgotten school lab brings Ryland into Root & Thorn, their lives begin to tangle in quiet, unexpected ways – through flowers, roots, and the terrifying possibility of being cared for properly.

    Summary

    after months of healing Simon finally gets to meet the only other human on the planet their savior, and finds out he's got far different biology than any human he's met before.

    Grace spends his lunchtime sipping on a nutrient shake and going through just about every item of clothing he owns trying to decide what would be the best to wear. They had been talking about introducing them for a good few months now, once their new alien was more comfortable and not dying or contagious.
    The care team was very insistent that both of them had to be very healthy before they could interact so neither of them could affect the other's health all too poorly.
    Especially now that Grace has proven several times to be able to stress himself into sickness even with a proper diet and none of the typical viruses that would cause illness in humans, which is so nice after years of being a teacher and having to worry about the season of sick kids.
    But despite promising his partners and care team that meeting the new human would not stress him too bad, he's stressing… he's stressing BAD
    He hasn't seen another human in way too long. maybe six years? If you don't count the coma... And he has no idea what this guy is like.

    Summary

    Ryland got in line and looked at the menu. Then he let his eyes wander down to the pastry case. Everything looked delicious. A young woman slid out an empty tray and replaced it with a fresh tray of apple fritters. Ryland’s mind was instantly made up.
    The couple in front of him moved out of the way and it was now his turn to order,
    “Hey, what can I get for you?” The man at the register asked.
    Oh he was definitely coming back here. That apple fritter could be hard as a rock and the coffee cold as ice and Ryland would be back here for the absolute hunk behind the register.
    ____
    A BloodyMary coffee shop au. Grace is a teacher and Simon works at a coffee shop that totally is not run by a cult.

    Bloodymary and Coltland UNITED WE STAND! It’s the AU where Simon is the convict engineer, Grace is the scientist, and Colt is the Pilot. Hopefully they can save the stars and maybe some Yaoi shenanigans will take place (oh they definitely are). The angst tag is very purposeful I must warn.

    Summary

    rocky has been alone for many many many years, he doesn't expect to be getting a new friend out of catching this sad hunk of space junk.
    -
    grace didn't know what he expected to find out in space, but an alien ship with another HUMAN ON IT was definitely very low on his list.
    ---
    Simon wakes up in complete blackness, no glowing camera button, no spark of electricity… just fucking blackness.

    He slowly sits up, his hair pulling bits of congealed blood up with him; there is at least 5 inches of the stuff all around him. He sticks his arm out to feel for the wall of the sub but comes up with empty space; he moves a little further, still nothing.

    He slowly gets up and walks forward, holding his hand out until he hits something, a large, smooth, curved object. He feels along it and realizes that this is the outside of the sub… he's out… he's… he's actually fucking out!

    Summary

    “My name is Grace, you’re in my home, I’m not gonna hurt you-“

    “Bullshit you ain’t gonna hurt me. Who are you with? The C.O.I? I’ll kill you before you can put me back in that hellhole!” The man’s hand trembles as he grasps the piece of broken ceramic, keeping it trained on Grace.

    “I swear, I swear! I’m not going to hurt you or put you anywhere, I don’t know what the heck you’re talking about. I don’t know what the C.O.I is but I’m not part of it. You’re on Erid, orbiting the star 40 Eridani. Can you please tell me your name?”

    He scoffs indignantly. “You think I was born yesterday? There are no stars. There are no planets. They’re dead. All dead. Everybody knows that.”

    What?

    Or:

    Simon’s submarine appears in the orbit of Erid - he and Grace figure it out.

    Summary

    Nevertheless, Grace had come to terms with the idea that he would never again have the chance to see another human, to interact with someone of his own kind, or to feel warm skin against his own.
    He had made peace with that.
    But he knew full well that it was another lie, and Simon’s arrival confirmed it.
