Summary
Ryland Grace has it all. His own house on the beach of his biodome, friends, a class to teach, and even a - situationship? Friend with benefits? Traumatized space stranger who he does kinky collar-based things with sometimes?
The point is, he's totally happy and fine. Never mind the nightmares that leave him sweating and shaking. Never mind the way sometimes his mind is jerked back to his last day on Earth. It's nothing, and Simon needs him to be a strong, grounding force. So he's just going to cram all of that into little boxes and shove it deep into the back of his mind.
He's fine. He's totally fine.

Simon's Contract is simple: provide a meal on a schedule, get paid. Purely business... well, until it isn't anymore, at least.

Summary
Ryland Grace is in college, 22 years old, lacking sleep, and prone to making bad decisions.
Like making out with a random guy at a party whose face he can't even remember, or drinking like he wants to induce liver failure, or taking pills without knowing what's in them, or, most recently, make a bet that if he can't last 30 seconds doing a keg stand, he'll get a tattoo.
He did not last 30 seconds doing a keg stand. Not even close.
—
Ryland Grace gets a handjob, a tramp stamp, and the number of the hot tattoo artist. In that order.

Summary
Ryland’s whiteboard has cycled through a couple different phases. First, it held his scattered inventory of memories. Then, calculations charting the path to Rocky. And now, having saved Rocky, columns of figures devoted to rationing food for the journey to Erid.
Near the bottom corner, circled three separate times, are the words: WE WILL MAKE IT :)
Well, you learn that there is a special kind of hell reserved for the first person to discover a problem, because now, even four words scrawled across a whiteboard can mock you. You see, here’s the problem you’ve found: Turns out there isn’t enough food on the Hail Mary for both of you to make it to Erid alive after all.
—
OR: The Hail Mary has enough food to get one person to Erid. Unfortunately, there are two of you. And worse, you’re in love.

Summary
He pictured Simon behind him pressed all along his back, hot and heavy and breathing like he was barely holding himself together. Simon’s hand over his mouth. Grace wanted it so fucking bad. He wanted Simon wound past thinking, past all that restraint. Wanted Simon’s teeth at his neck and Simon’s hand low on his stomach, holding him still while Grace fell apart against him. He wanted Simon making those broken growling sounds into his skin like Grace was prey, or food, or home, or some fucked-up fourth thing Grace didn’t have a word for.
Grace’s knees bent; he was barely standing.
He bit down on his lip to keep quiet and pushed his fingers deeper.
A low breath came from in front of him.
“Grace.”
His eyes snapped open.
Shit.
(For those of you scrolling with your phone in one hand and morals in the other the smut starts in the chapter titled “under the jaw”)

Summary
“Is it okay if I touch you?” the man breathes.
Simon doesn't know why he asks. No, it's not okay. None of this is okay.
“Please,” he continues when Simon doesn't respond. “I-I need permission.”
Simon closes his eyes. It's his own type of silent defiance. If this man isn't just fucking with him – if he does, for some strange reason, feel bad or guilty about capturing him, then good. Let him drown in it.
Simon is captured by a compulsive liar who, bafflingly, gives him food, smiles at him, and pretends the Quiet Rapture never happened.
Grace saves the life of a violent human who seems to be under the terrifying delusion that every star and planet has disappeared without a trace.

Summary
Ryland looked down at his clipboard, where he had written a reasonable script, supplied earlier that day by Adrian. Unfortunately, the moment his eyes landed on the words, his brain supplied only terrible ways to say them.
He chose the worst one.
“I need flowers with prominent reproductive structures.”
The man went completely still.
Ryland could feel his soul attempting to leave his body.
“For a plant anatomy lab,” he added quickly. “For my students. Middle school students. Not–” He cut himself off, because there was simply no end to that sentence that would improve his situation. Instead, he just weakly smiled, and added “Science.”
-:-:-
Ryland Grace is brilliant with biology, awkward with adults, and far too invested in giving his students the lessons they deserve. Simon Fleischer is a guarded florist who trusts plants more than people and has no interest in being needed by anyone again. But when a forgotten school lab brings Ryland into Root & Thorn, their lives begin to tangle in quiet, unexpected ways – through flowers, roots, and the terrifying possibility of being cared for properly.

Arthur is the perfect flatmate -- he pays his rent on time, works so much that he’s not even home half the time, and is totally okay with Merlin’s magic. Best of all, Merlin is pretty sure that Arthur has a crush on him -- that is, until he stumbles across a list of things that Arthut hates about him.
Merlin is upset of course, but he pushes aside his feelings to focus on being a better roommate so that Arthur will renew their lease for another year. Most of the things on the list aren’t that hard to correct … so how come Arthur seems to get more and more annoyed as Merlin improves his behaviour?

Job-hunting has familiarized Merlin with rejection. Most of the listings in the paper require qualifications he lacks, or prior job experience no eighteen year old would have. One listing sticks out at Merlin—a simple advert, with the word ‘Secretary’ written in bold typeface.
(A Secretary Movie/BBC Merlin AU in which a fragile Merlin learns to love his job, himself, getting spanked, and his boss. All in that order.)
