    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

    Simon's usually stoic face scrunched with confusion. "What are you doing?"

    "Well- I just, ya know. I just wanted to-" Grace closed his eyes and took a deep breath that did nothing to calm his nerves before he shakily managed out. "I made you, a bouquet."

    Simon's expression only twisted further into distress, "Why did you do that?"

    Grace felt his measly courage wheeze out of him like a pathetic balloon, letting out a weak little, "Huh?"

    After a moment for this brain to catch up with his mouth, he gulped and opened his mouth to try again, then stopped. Started again. "It’s… flowers."

    "Yes," Simon said slowly, "I can see that."

    Grace swallowed and tentatively added, "…For you."

    That landed wrong. Simon’s immediately tensed, not in anger, more like suspicion and concern. He eyed the flowers with pursed lips before slowly drawing out another, "Why?"

    "What?"
    ———————
    Or the five times Grace attempted to woo Simon the human way, and the one time he tried it the Eridian way.

    Summary

    Surely Ryland and Simon fell into the typical grumpy x sunshine dynamic-oh.

    Uh.

    Okay.

    Nevermind then-

    Or, in which assumptions are made and proven very wrong.
