    Summary

    He panicked. She was going to force him on that ship. If anything happened he would be the back up and he would have to go to space; he didn't want that. But she was right, he didn't even have a dog. So yeah, yeah he panicked a bit. He panicked and threw out the first excuse he and his little brain could come up with to get out of this.

    “I’m in a relationship.”

    ~~~

    Dr. Ryland Grace does not want to go into space. Under any circumstances. Simon Fischer just so happens to be the man he threw under the bus to avoid getting sent up there.

    Summary

    Bloodymary (Ryland Grace PHM x Simon Iron Lung)Medeival Europe Fairytale Epic set after the fall of the Roman Empire.

    Twenty years after saving the world from the darkest year in human history (536 AD*) Ryland Grace is pulled back into saving the world again after meeting Simon, who survives an angry, cursed wood. It seems the forest wants to consume everything and Ryland and Simon must collaborate to save the land of the living from the growing horrors.

    Over the tale, our heroes will travel among humans, the land of the Fairy, venture into the Underworld to visit a prophet (a la Dante, Virgil, Homer), and brave a corrupted, consuming wood. If planting trees is for future generations, as is saving the world, there's an awful trouble to falling in love while doing it.

    **Sorry for not doing a blood ocean please take stinky angry trees instead, I promise it all works out in the end

    Summary

    The thing was, Ryland had never really stopped thinking about Simon after that one glorious summer. They'd hung out every day for three months, and then Ryland's family had to move to a whole different state for his dad's work, and he'd never been able to go back.

    Post-UNESCO, post-cult, two friends reconnect and fall in love.

    Summary

    Commander Simon Fisher, Prince of the Old Blood, did not make it out of the Consolidation Wars without leaving pieces of his body, his faith, and his sanity behind. But the proud and resource-starved kingdom of Edenne needs him for one last mission: they're marrying him off to fulfill a treaty without so much as a "thank you for your service."

    His Royal Highness, Prince Doctor Ryland Grace of Francisco would much rather be studying beetles than navigating the perils of court intrigue. Marrying a stranger would be bad enough, but when it turns out that Prince Ryland's new fiance is not just a savage Edenne warrior, but the Butcher of Filament Fortress himself? Let us say that the Prince-Doctor does not handle this well.

    ------------

    Welcome to the arranged-marriage royalty BloodyMary AU you didn't think you needed.

    Summary

    For Simon Fisher, a densely muscled Green Beret carrying the trauma of a dark doomsday past, the world is a hostile meat grinder. For Ryland Grace, a tall, quirky, fast-talking Army medic, it’s a numbers game of surviving a grueling deployment. What begins as a bitter, hostile clash quickly spirals into an intense, hyper-vigilant obsession. When Simon is medically discharged early, he retreats to a remote Virginia valley to cultivate a literal sanctuary in the soil. Left behind in the desert, Grace must hold the line against a ticking clock, relying on a shared promise and a silver cross to pull them both out of the dark.
