    Summary

    Simon focused on the view. So many stars. They were beautiful, and he was happy they'd be the last thing he'd see.
    "I'm ready." Simon whispered into the still air. The combing stopped, and Simon mourned the loss immediately.
    "You can kill me now."
    AKA: What if Simon misinterpreted why Grace was showing him the Greenhouse? Our bodies become the soil, after all.

    Summary

    Eridians have recreated more of Earth than Grace could have imagined. Waves, trees, flowers — Grace is grateful for all of it. Simon feels the same, even if he doesn’t say as much. Grace can tell from how curious Simon has become.

    Answering his questions about plant life was a breakthrough for their relationship. So, as long as Simon wants to know something, Grace is willing to teach him about it. It's just that giving a lesson on this particular flower isn't quite like what Grace is used to teaching about. After all, it's not like he'd have ever brought up marijuana in the classroom.

    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

    Stratt deals in outcomes.

    The equation was simple:

    One man

    for eight billion lives.

    The kind of math that pretends to be brutal but is, in truth, embarrassingly straightforward.

    And so she does not regret.

    Or,

    After 49 years, Dr. Ryland Grace comes back to earth with alien allies and a scarred stranger. (Stratt’s POV)

    Summary

    “What did you call it?” Simon asked, placing his hand on Grace’s hip. His fingers slipped under the man’s shirt, causing his angel to moan. Simon loved how vibrant blushes looked on Grace. His angel looked like a tomato. He couldn’t help but tease the man. “When we talked about EDEN and Earth? Something exchange?”
    Ryland whimpered as Simon began rubbing his side. Every touch was electric. God, he was sensitive. He swallowed, throat clicking loudly. “Cultural exchange,” Grace answered.
    “Yeah. Cultural exchange.” Simon chuckled, “Let’s do that. Let me show you how we make life.” He pulled Grace to him, chest to chest.

    Rocky was frantically rambling. Grace tried to translate the chirps and trills. One sound then cut through his confusion.

    Summary

    How many times in his life had Simon stared out into the fading stars, and heard others calling out to deities or a universe that didn’t care…or if it did, was powerless to fix anything. Simon didn’t know what was worse. And then, just when all his hope had been thrown alongside him into a Blood Ocean on a mysterious moon… he finds himself lost to a flash of light. Maybe the C.O.I were right all along, Grace is the true salvation.

    Now with sequel!

    Summary

    "...emitting a radio frequency, I tuned into it expecting little more than feedback, maybe due to a magnetic inbalance-”

    “And??”

    Wordlessly, they flick a switch, and the noise is played loud enough for the entire room to hear it. 

    “Please,” a voice sobs, “Please, it hurts- I'm scared, I just- please, I just want to live. Why doesn't anyone else want that? Why can't I- I want to-” it breaks off into more sobbing and the room practically vibrates with tension. 

    “That-! That is the language spoken by Engineer Rocky's Grace! That is HUMAN language!”

    “Yes.”

    “There is a human down there?? That shouldn't be-”

    “But there is. What now?”

    Summary

    Ryland Grace and Rocky arrived at Erid almost 7 months ago, and Grace is far more lonely than he expected to be. Rocky is worried for him, but nothing can make up for the lack of human connection.

    A group of Eridians patrolling space discover an odd looking ship, labeled SM-13, passing their planet, and discover a human inside. A man.

    This man doesn’t know how he got here, only that the last he remembered, he was in a blood ocean facing certain death.

    Grace must break a traumatized man out of his shell, while also working through his own repressed trauma.

    Or: Two touch starved men must communicate their needs, work through their trauma, and build a domestic life on an alien planet.

    Summary

    One second Ryland sat beside the fire, breathing crying beneath the stars. The next Simon shoved into him hard enough that both of them crashed backward into the sand. Ryland made a startled sound as the blanket twisted beneath them. Sand scattered. The firelight jumped gold across Ryland’s shocked face.
    Simon didn’t know what he was doing.
    He had never done this before.
    Not really. Simon just suddenly could not survive the distance between them anymore.
    So he closed it.
    And kissed him.
    Hard.

    If you are scrolling late at night with your morals in one hand and your phone in the other and you just want to get to the smut, start at Chapter 11.

    Sneak Peek: “The metal thumb of the prosthetic pressed lightly against Ryland’s mouth. Ryland opened for him immediately.”

    Summary

    “Ryland,” Simon said, his tone gentle but firm.

    Grace blinked, looking at Simon.

    “H-Huh?”

    Simon’s gaze fixed on him. A look of knowing. Of understanding.

    “Take me down,” he repeated. “Pin me before I pin you.”

    Summary

    This had been a long time coming.

    It had been months since Grace pulled Simon from his artificial waters, bloody and half-insane. Months since he's nursed him back to health, met his feral bullshit with kindness, and informed him that whatever fucked up wormhole he'd popped out of led him to a universe full of stars and planets and an Earth light-years away.

    Their caution of one another (though mostly on Simon's side) gradually morphed into respect. Not long after, it became attraction.

    Today, their pining hit its breaking point.

    "Grace clicks his tongue. 'You know, Simon, in my classroom I expect a certain amount of decorum. Students need to know how to control themselves, despite anything that might cause excitement or…distraction.'”

    ***

    In which Simon kind of, sort of, really likes that Grace is a teacher.

    Summary

    While Simon had never thought about it, the fact that Ryland has had relationships made sense. Who wouldn't want to be loved by this man?
    What didn't make sense was that someone had broken up with the man? Had had Ryland all to herself and decided that she didn't want him?!?
    Fuck Linda, that stupid bitch!

    I.e. Simon is offended that anyone would willingly dump Ryland Grace.
