    Summary

    What the fuuuck.

    The rock is back, and behind him is a human.
    Man.
    A human man.

    He has messy blond hair sticking up at every angle and glasses that are half falling off his face. He's wearing a too-tight shirt with some sort of joke I don't understand. He has awkward dimples in his cheeks as he smiles tentatively at me. He's holding some kind of device. I don't know if it's a weapon.

    His eyes are really fucking blue.

    Well, at least if he's here to kill me, I get a damn good sight on my way out.

    Summary

    “This okay?” Simon muttered, the vibrations from his words rippling across Grace’s stomach.

    “Yes… yes I just…” Grace struggled to catch his breath. “This was not how I was expecting tonight to go.”

    Simon paused his kisses. “How did you see this going?”

    “I don’t know. We would… talk about it?”

    “Do you want to talk instead?”

    Grace couldn’t even remember what he wanted to say. Actually, there were no words that described what he wanted. “No. No, keep going.”
    -----
    Or Eridians find Simon's submarine while spreading Astrophage to the galaxy and bring him back to Erid. Grace has to change his normal routine to help this new human adjust to life. Slowly, they get to know one another, despite Simon potentially being a war criminal from a moon with an ocean full of blood. But there's just something else about Simon that Grace can't shake, and he's pretty sure Simon feels it too...

    Summary

    There's 1 in 70,000 people on the planet who have the gene needed to survive the Hail Mary's expedition. In that limited pool, 1 in maybe 1000 had the necessary skills needed for the mission — more dire still, even less people were willing to volunteer for what is essentially a suicide mission.

    When an explosion killed not only their science officers but also their engineers, Eva Stratt makes the tough decision to put 2 people on the spacecraft that no one was expecting to be even be candidates.

    One is a middle-school science teacher.

    One is a convicted eco terrorist.

    Summary

    Grace and Rocky are on their way to Erid when they encounter a strange terrestrial vessel that has somehow made its way to space. The single occupant is alive and Grace and Rocky rescue him, but they are then faced with the challenge of gaining this stranger's trust and dealing with the contamination he brought with him.

    *slaps roof of fic* This bad boy can fit so many near-death experiences in it! But also friendship! And fucking (eventually)!
