   Summary

   Ryland Grace has officially lived on Erid for one whole year. Everything's set up to his liking. He has food, a lab, and his best friend who visits him on the daily.
   Sure, he's the only human person here. But given his background, he doesn't mind suffering from touch-deprivation. He's safe right where he is.
   Well, not for long. Now, there's a new guy. Who's pragmatic and flat when it comes to any form of expression.
   That's fine! Grace can deal with that. He has no worries...
   And why does Rocky keep trying to push the idea of them dating.

   Or here's my take on the Ryland Grace x Simon ship. I had a vision, I followed it to the end.
