    Summary

    If you ask most people what the worst thing about being fifteen is, they'll probably say school.

    Or acne.

    Or embarrassing parents.

    For me, it was the fact that my heart was trying to kill me.

    Okay, maybe that sounds dramatic.

     

    or

     

    Poseidon was having a normal day when he receives a phone call saying that his son (who he didn't know existed) was in hospital and that he needed to be there urgently.

    What was he supposed to say to his wife?

    Summary

    "Okay," Eddie says at last. "You don't want anyone to know, I won't tell."
    "You won't?"
    "But I have conditions."
    "Yes. Okay. Whatever you want, name your price."
    "If this happens again, it's straight to rehab. No questions asked."
    "Done."
    "And you're taking extended medical leave for at least two weeks—"
    "Two weeks!" Buck closes his eyes, measuring himself. "Sure, whatever."
    "And you have to let me look after you."
    Buck tilts his head back, surprised. "What?"

    Or, after a particularly traumatising case, Buck relapses on Oxycodone and Eddie looks after him.

    Summary

    Grace has to get on the Erid space elevator & generally has a very bad time with it. By the way, I do not understand physics. If you are a physicist avert your eyes. I had to consult *Reddit* for what a space elevator could be like. I am a biology dork, not a physics dork. I tried.

    Summary

    I am participating in @seth-whumps Whumperless Whump Event for July 2026!

    Get ready for 31 different stories featuring our lovely Ryland Grace. These are mostly stories about Grace and Rocky's relationship through the lens of whump, but Adrian, Carl, Stratt, original Eridians, and Colt are featured as well.

    But Rocky uses another claw to grab a tissue and wipe at his skin. His touch is always surprisingly tender for being a rock.

    “Did you think…” His voice trails off. “Did you think I was gonna -”

    “No,” Rocky says immediately. “Grace sick. Grace hurt. But Grace no die.”

    Grace nods. “I wouldn’t have gotten through this without you.”

    Rocky dabs the tears around his eyes away. “Rocky would not be here without Grace.”

    Summary

    "You appear to be experiencing a migraine."

    Great. Hypothesis proven. Still sucks.

    “Probable cause is recently-diagnosed concussion,” Mary continues. “The relative length of your recovery window may be indicative of post-concussion syndrome.”

    Huh.

    ...

    Grace (and Rocky) discover the consequences of head injuries.
