    Summary

    Grace's webbed hands press against the glass, his curious chitters surprising the young man standing next to the viewport he was observing from. He’s newer on the team, Grace jogs his memory for his name again.

    The young man holds his hand to his chest, breathing a sigh of relief, “Oh hey, Grace. Come to see your new neighbor?”

    He nods, chirping his burning question, “Who is it?”

    “Dunno,” Chris, right, that’s his name– “It’s another mer.”

    (Or, Rocky and Adrian are helped by a merman named Grace, and in turn they save him. Now happily living in the Erid Marine Rehabilitation & Research Center, Grace is surprised when another injured merman named Simon is brought to recover in a neighboring tank. Perhaps, these two lost souls may finally have a home, together.)

    Summary

    [What does hand flex mean, question?] Rocky asks from where we're huddled together on the floor, watching the 2005 adaption of Pride & Prejudice.

    "It's uh—" I hit pause, search for the right word. "Have we had yearning in the vocab yet?"

    Summary

    Grace is too late rescuing Rocky. When he finds the Blip-A again, Rocky is already gone, so Grace does the only thing he can think of, and he takes Taumeoba-82.5 to Erid himself. If he can't save Rocky, well, he might as well make sure his death wasn't in vain.

    He's sick, starving, and has no Eridian native to introduce him, but he's going to save Rocky's planet no matter what. After that... he supposes all that's left is for him to die. He's nearly out of food and Yao's gun is still tucked away safely in the Hail Mary's storage.
     
    Fortunately for him, Adrian doesn't plan on letting their mate's best friend die so easily.

    Summary

    "I'll keep you updated. In the meantime, go back to sleep. When you need to worry, I'll tell you."

    "Heh." Ryland ran his hand down his face. "It's terrible you know that it actually makes me feel better. What would I do without you?"

    "Explode at a colleague at a conference and get expelled from academia and become a middle school teacher." Eva said, promptly.

    "Wow, you've thought about that way too hard." Ryland laughed. "Middle schoolers might not vape in class, though. Maybe I should switch."

    "Let's not joke."

    Summary

    “What – what?” Colt demands when they turn the corner. Set pieces roll by. Gail keeps pulling until they're in the trailer and the door is shut. Then, like a freak, she pulls at the shades. “Gail, you're doing that thing again.” 

    “What thing?” She peaks behind the blind one more time.

    “The thing you do when you make me think you're about to kill me,” he says, “or tell me that you've killed someone else.”

    OR, Colt Seavers tries to go back to his normal life after his older brother comes back from the dead. Unfortunately, his life is dedicated to fucking him over.

    Summary

    The door opens. 

    Claire chokes. Ryland is standing there in blue PJ pants and an oversized PBS t-shirt. He's rubbing his eyes, which are missing his glasses, which makes it even more obvious how similar they look. When his hand falls away, Six watches him process what is standing at his door. His eyes go from Six, down to Claire, then back up to Six. 

    He laughs, high and stressed, then closes the door in their face.

    OR, Six needs help taking care of Claire after they break free from their respective jails. He decides that his younger brother Ryland Grace is the solution.

    Summary

    He hopped in the driver’s seat and subtly took a breath, grabbing the wheel tightly, the leather of his wet gloves squeaking. He could hear a buzzing in his ears, a growing drone overtaking the sound of the rain hitting the roof. He stared at the writhing lump over in the mud.

    He’d touched him. He’d HURT him. Ambushed him. Threatened him. Soiled him. Driver should’ve been there, should’ve cut him off before he’d have had the chance to slam into him. Driver should’ve taken the attacker’s knife out from his pocket and used it on him, right in the throat to quell his screams, all without 306 ever knowing--

    “Thanks again,” his neighbor said, breaking the silence. He fiddled with the folds of his balled up, inside out raincoat sitting in his lap. “For… well, all of these things. That you’re doing. And have done. Heh.”

    Driver looked over at 306. He looked pathetic, absolutely soaked in rain and covered with dirt and blood, smile weak and apologetic. He was beautiful.

    “It’s no problem,” Driver said, smiling again.

    Summary

    Sierra Six had ruthlessly culled all of Court from himself, carefully paring away slices of the boy between missions and flinging them behind him to the depths of time, until all that was left was Fitzroy's asset. Could only be the weapon the CIA had invested so much in. But as Claire threw her arms around him in the safe house where Suzanne had stashed her, Six realised that he remembered exactly when he had last been held without the intent to harm.

    -

    Court Gentry is not used to being in control of his own life, much less someone else's. He doesn't suppose a change in situation is going to lessen the universe's interest in tossing him around like a ragdoll.

    He would be right.

    Parent teacher conference leads to yelling and running away and showing up on Rys doorstep for a bit more yelling. Then protective driver and emotionally wrecked Ry (both of them really)

    Six said he doesn’t have a secret family and he would not be a good brother before Claire could mention that Grace looks eerily similar. Sore subject. Claire likes school and friends!

    Six enrolled Claire in Ryland’s middle school, Grace and driver became a thing a few years ago and Grace has ✨ trauma✨ from pops and being unable to protect his baby brothers, thinks Six was killed in prison and Colt sent him away after breaking his back (recent). Grace caught driver injured after job gone bad and asked to help, not pressing for truth

    Summary

    “I’ll wash your jacket,” Lars says, holding his hand out. The bottom half of Driver’s jacket is dark and stained with blood. (The blood goes all the way around, like it’s not only from Driver’s injury. Lars pretends not to notice.) It’s ripped, next to the zipper, from the knife that was in his stomach. Lars doesn’t think Driver should wear a bloody jacket.

    Driver shakes his head, eyeing Lars warily.

    Well. That’s okay. Lars doesn’t like when people take his blanket, either.

    ~~~

    Lars finds the Driver bleeding in his car on the side of the road. A tentative relationship forms.

    Summary

    To say that Ryland Grace and Simon of Eden get off on the wrong foot would be the understatement of the century.

    Being rescued didn’t miraculously solve all of Simon’s problems. He has a lot to adjust to. Being a fresh amputee, the stars not being dead, aliens being real, living on an alien planet, having a human neighbor who doesn't want to kill him, trusting in this so-called “reality” that’s too good to be true… yeah, no, making friends isn’t a priority. Exiting survival mode is easier said than done. He barely even knows who he is when he’s not fighting tooth and nail.

    Grace is doing his best not to get attached to the handsome stranger he helped save. Simon may choose to leave Erid once he’s healed. He’s not so desperate for human company that he’d pursue someone who attacked him in their first-ever interaction. He has a good life here on Erid; he totally doesn’t dream of holding another human being’s hand, or being looked at fondly by someone with eyes, or seeing another person’s smile. He has Rocky and Adrian, who are more than enough family for him.

    But who does Simon have, if not Grace?

    (The one where Simon trauma trigger violence trigger grace trauma)

    Simon bodyguard era cuz extremists be making threats, cohabitation straining but Grace has vowed to be better cuz he gets where S is coming from a tiny bit more after S admitted to wanting to keep G in his sight, going to class rn

    Simon very depressed and loathing himself but allowing Eridians to take care of him while he gets better bit by bit

    Simon visits class and it’s super cute! He talks with Grace! Bonding! Until he goes ah shit the first human contract you had in 68 years was me trying to kill you and he shuts down a bit, leaving after revealing his brutal past and title

    Simon: i made quiche fuck you
    Grace: T_T this is one of the best things I have ever tasted lemme tell you about the starving times
    Simon: … shit maybe we’re more alike than i thought
    Simon: i cannot tell him my shit he’s too empathetic and has already been through enough I’ll just be over here having nightmares that I killed him

    Grace is determined to be a passive aggressive petty bench via bringing Simon weekly produce because, yet again, his efforts to connect resulted in triggered trauma and the belief that Simon will never like/trust/think well of him. Also Simon was like “is this a sex thing” and Grace was like “when the hell did I do anything to make you think that. I want dates and times.” Also G is touch-starved and it battles against feeling unsafe with Simons touch and i love it

    Simon see the stars and finally maybe believed that he’s not hallucinating all of this!

    Summary

    “He had a sharp nose and head with full, healthy hair, and was dressed in a white button-up shirt that looked crisp and too tight on his body, with slacks hanging low on narrow hips. There was stubble along his jaw and exhaustion beneath his eyes despite the well-kept mustache and soft blue tint of his irises, but somehow neither of those things took away from him. If anything, they added something unfairly charming. He smelled faintly of cheap cologne and cigarette smoke, and something sweeter underneath that reminded Healy vaguely of oranges.

    Healy frowned when he noticed that the man’s blond hair was exactly the same shade of June’s usual beehive hairdo.”

    Or

    Four times Jackson Healy thought about kissing Holland March, and one time Holland March kissed him. (Plus one bonus chapter at the end)

    For a moment he just studies the motorcycle. It's an ancient machine, a relic from the time before spinners, a time when the air was fresh and clean and clear; the fact that it ran at all is a minor miracle. Like him, it probably should have been retired long ago.

    What does a replicant exist for, if it no longer has a purpose?

    Summary

    Scruffy beard, glasses, hair in disarray. He's in a simple button-down and jeans, no place to hide any meaningful weapons, and faces away from Driver—exposes his vulnerable side, forgoes line of sight—to crouch in front of two boys who have been so silent he only now notices.

    “C'mere,” the man mutters. He hoists one of them up and into his arms. The boy rests his cheek on the man's shoulder with a quiet sniffle, eyes squeezed shut. His small hands wrap around the man's nape in a death grip. He has a SpongeBob-patterned bandaid on his nose bridge.

    The other boy grips onto the man's shirt hem with just as much vigor, though his eyes are wide open. He looks up at Driver with pointed eyes, clear and devastatingly full of suspicion.

    They look at each other for half a moment of contemplative quiet.

    Then, softly, “What floor?” Driver asks.

    The elevator door closes.

    or

    Driver moves to the new apartment. Instead of Irene, his neighbor is kind teacher Ryland Grace with two twin younger brothers he's taking care of.
