   Summary

   Ryland Grace did not expect to see another person outside of his dreams ever again. He was certainly not prepared for the mutated “human” that the eridians brought to his lab. Furthermore, he was even less prepared for the baggage and weirdly confusing feelings that came along with him.

   Simon did not expect to be shown kindness from another person ever again. Especially not one that looks like he speaks for The Light itself.

   Or, Erid’s wet dog adjacent savior meets a God’s deeply troubled pet.
