    Summary

    Simon woke up.
    He was surprised to be in the same room again. Surprised the too clean room and the too kind man and the freaky alien weren’t a trick made by the eel. Surprised that they hadn’t started demanding payment for saving him yet. There was always a price to pay.

    Summary

    Grace is nervously, carefully learning to enjoy having Simon aboard the Hail Mary, he’s hopeful that Simon is starting to come out of his shell. He’s . . . Hopeful about a lot of things, things he probably shouldn’t be hopeful for.

    Or; Simon’s been carefully adjusting to his limited time on the Hail Mary, on account of this can only be his ‘7 minutes’ of brain activity before he dies.

    At least the angel sent to help him move on is as beautiful as they were said to be.

    Summary

    "I know you hate calling me that. Convict, I mean," Simon tells him. "And I'm sorry that I keep asking you to."

    Simon watches as Dr. Grace pauses, like his whole body and brain systems stall into a stillness that is uncharacteristic of him.

    Or: Simon needs assurances that Ryland is human and not another trick. Ryland will do whatever it takes to help Simon, even if he doesn't like it. They find their way.

    Summary

    “Sometimes when humans experience a trauma, they just kind of shut down.” Grace explained.

    “Shut … down question?” Rocky tilted his head.

    Grace sighed, “Like going inside, deep inside yourself, trying to stay away from whatever hurt you on the outside.”

    or, Mute Simon recovers on Erid with Grace.
