    Summary

    Simon waited.

    Waited for them to apologize. Tell him there’s nothing they could do. That he wasn’t worth the trouble or resources, that he wasn’t worth the time.

    But that never came.

    Instead, after a second Grace came back on the line, his voice sounding determined now. “Alright,” he said. “Hang tight.”

    Simon blinked slowly. “What?”

    Summary

    “Don’t let the blood get into your ship, okay?”

    That made Grace pause. “What?!”

    “If I die, you have to get my body out of here,” the man pleaded, but Grace had to go. His oxygen was out. The guy would be dead in six minutes. “You have to get me out, even if I’m dead. Hey!”

    “Just hold on!” Grace propelled himself through zero gravity, away from the radio.

    “Don’t leave me here-!” The roar echoed through the ship halls.

    ---

    When Ryland Grace complained about being a little bored, maybe a little lonely, he thought a nostalgic trip around Erid would fix him right up. The last thing he expected was to find deadly space bacteria in deep space and a human. Alive.

    Summary

    Here’s the thing.

    Grace is dying. Simon just wants to live.

    Hope is such a driving factor for each of them. But when Grace brings this convict aboard his ship, he was not expecting this man who was supposed to be a killer to be this soft. And…not this unhuman. Simon must come to terms with the idea that he might not be human any longer.

    Its the challenge of keeping one's humanity when you are the last fragment of it.

    And when you dont want to keep going.

    Summary

    “Will arrive at Erid in three months. Rocky get smartest Eridians to make food for human grace and help alien wake up.” Rocky says with a little more hope and incline in his voice, causing the edge of my lips to curl upwards slightly.

    Rocky always does his best to say what he thinks I need to hear, and, for the most part, he isn't too far from the mark.

    “Yeah…Everything will be okay” I respond, and hope that it's true.

    -

    Grace and Rocky have made it through a bulk of their trip to Erid. In their travels, the two discover a man in the middle of dead space- tethered to nothing, with no oxygen tank and yet alive all the same.

    Simon has been in a coma on the Hail Mary for three months now, and Grace is trying to stay sane.

    Summary

    "There's no need to negotiate for your safety, Doctor Grace," Stratt says carefully. "I can assure you, after saving the world, you will be looked after."

    "Um, no," he says, shaking his head. "I'm not negotiating for my safety." He steps aside. “I’m negotiating for theirs.”

    They step into the light of the open doorway; Simon, squinting hard against the vivid sun with his hand raised to shield his eyes and Rocky, who chirps a casual "Hello, humans!" with a wave.

    There’s a gasp; someone takes a step backward; one of the military personnel raises their rifle slightly before Stratt makes a sharp gesture for them to stand down.

    Grace doesn’t have eyes for them - he only looks at Stratt.

    And he decides, then and there, to replace the image of Stratt’s face sending him to his death, full of remorse and sadness, with the one in front of him: utter, complete disbelief.

    Grace thinks he'll treasure it forever.

    Summary

    Ryland Grace survived the Hail Mary mission. Simon survived the Iron Lung. Neither of them are particularly happy about it.

    When Rocky and Adrian discover an artificial signal that has been broadcasting for fourteen years, Ryland makes the one mistake he swore he never would again: he goes back to space.

    Unfortunately for everyone involved, the signal belongs to a deeply traumatized ex-convict.

    Summary

    "If you're lying to me- I'l hurt you. I'll do it."

    “No problem. I’m not lying, so. No need for that.”

    “I’m serious.”

    Grace can’t help himself.

    “Nice to meet you, Serious. I’m Dr. Ryland Grace. Um- but everyone around here calls me Grace."

    Silence.

    “That’s your cue to tell me your name,” he notes.

    The continued silence is deafening. Wide shoulders heave with heavy breath, that dark gaze tightening at Grace’s further insistence. Greasy, inky hair falls around his face, unruly tendrils shielding scarred skin from the outside.

    Halfway back to Erid, the Hail Mary receives her third and final passenger.

    Summary

    Ryland Grace just couldn’t seem to sit still. Saving the stars, and being on the move for the last couple of years could do that to a person huh? So he ultimately decided to help spread the taumeba across the stars, mainly for the sake of his own sanity. Little did he know he’d find a friend on his impromptu mission. Or given one, rather. This seemed almost entirely bigger than him. (Hehe get the reference?)

    In which Ryland Grace is given a friend and doesn’t know what to do about it. Yes, Simon has big trauma, and they will be gay for each other. Eventually.

    Summary

    Ever since they dragged this man aboard, Grace has felt slightly insane. He hasn’t been able to function fully, always torn between his duties to Rocky and his apparent duties of watching over The Stranger
    Grace spends a majority of the day he doesn’t feel needed in the lab sitting in the med bay, watching Armando as it whirs away to keep the Stranger stable. He knows Rocky is probably worried about him, or even a bit hurt because of his newly divided attention, but he also trusts that Rocky understands. After all, this is the first time he’s seen someone of his own species in… a very very long time.
    Rocky has a whole planet to come home to. A mate. A life where he will be regarded as a hero, just like Stratt promised Grace would be.

    Summary

    Rhaenyra Targaryen does not want to marry, even if she did, she demands a prince—one who can offer more than the dull promise of stewardship.Her father Viserys Targaryen turns to Otto Hightower to resolve the matter. In response, Otto sends a raven to his brother, urging him to send his son Gwayne, to unite their houses at last.

    But Rhaenyra never bargained for Gwayne—the brutish knight of the Hightowers of Oldtown, as wild and untamed as the bay he commands. She may find that in him, she discovers everything she never knew she craved.

    Summary

    In a version of Westeros where the Dance of the Dragons never happens, the realm is held together through careful alliances instead of open war. Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen remains heir to the Iron Throne, but her future is still decided for her when she is betrothed to Ser Gwayne Hightower in a political effort to secure stability between crown and Oldtown.

    Neither of them has any choice in the matter, and neither of them is pleased about it.

    Rhaenyra refuses to be treated like a bargaining piece in her own father’s court, while Gwayne is dragged into a union that ties him to a woman he’s been taught to see as dangerous, unpredictable, and politically inconvenient. What starts as resentment and constant friction slowly shifts as they’re forced into the same spaces, the same decisions, and the same public image.

    In a court built on appearances, they learn quickly that hate is easy. Living with the consequences of it is harder.

    Summary

    She followed his lead, got to her knees and lit a candle. Ran her fingers through the flame and let her shoulders slump.

    She turned to him, mouth flat. “What will you pray for?”

    He looked at her, hair darker than the flame, the bump of his nose small. He said nothing, but he never looked away. It was enough.

     

     

    The hate gets suffocating after a time, threatens to choke her between the silks of her bed and let the meat from her bones rot until she is unrecognizable. Hating the Queen has made Rhaenyra into a different person, more dragon than girl, her skin turning from satin to scales. Hating her half-brother has made her into a tyrant, willing to kill a babe if it meant the threat of disinheritance would disappear.

    But hating the Queen’s brother, it has made her so much worse.

    Summary

    Aegon remembers dying - very painfully and with little dignity. When he awakes to the day his children are born, he is determined to stop the war for the throne and prevent his family from dying (and himself. He is very much invested in not dying again).

    To do this, he realises he needs to:
    1. Stop Lucerys from being a twat and actually show Aemond he is sorry for taking his eye.
    2. Stop Aemond from, also, being a twat and actually stop his brother from killing his nephew (and also Aegon himself).

    Somewhere along the line he becomes a matchmaker, with a little help and guidance from his sister-wife.
