    Summary

    “You live in an enclosure,” the man said. There was no venom in his voice. He was just stating a fact.

    “Yeah, but… it’s nice. I have just about anything I could ever ask for. And back on Earth, well… there’s nothing for me there now.”

    A new human, inexplicably, shows up on Erid, and Ryland Grace has to remember how to be a good host. Considering he hasn’t seen another human in about a decade, and this human is both distractingly handsome and incredibly traumatized, it’s safe to say that this might be a challenge… especially with Ryland still working through his own issues, even all these years later.

    But he saved the entire world, so, how hard could it be to save one more man?

    Summary

    “I called it the Good Luck quilt,” Grace says. “It’s all symbols of luck from across the world, it was a parting gift before the mission - but let’s not get into all that. It’s silly but it’s comforted me through some pretty hard times. I thought…I don’t know. I’m probably just being sentimental.”

    Simon grasps the edge of the quilt that he can reach, if only to make sure it’s real. It’s beautiful. There’s not a lot of color left in the world, and colorful, soft fabric of this quality is worth a fortune. The patterns are joyful, almost childish. For some reason that Simon can’t quite articulate through the sickness and exhaustion, it makes him suddenly very certain that this isn’t the COI.

    In Simon’s old universe, fabric, thread, and yarn are all precious commodities. He's had to learn to mend clothes and knit socks out of practicality. On Erid, it's a way to pay back what he owes, to make friends, and eventually, to heal.
    A love letter fiber crafts and the people who do them, an exploration of physical disability, and of course, a very soft love story.

    Summary

    Touch-starved Ryland Grace was excited at the prospect of another human on Erid who could help with platonic touching every once in a while. Simon, however, refuses to touch Ryland, closes himself off from everyone around him, and keeps having sex dreams about Grace.

    What could possibly go wrong if they’re in a room together?

    OR

    Grace refused to be so pathetic as to get hard from a punch to the face (he very much did get hard from it)

    Summary

    “You’re never gonna win this, Gri. You know that, right?” Scar taunted.
    “You wanna - bet?” Grian panted, his nose bumping against Scar’s cheek as they tussled. “You’ve gotta let your guard down eventually! And then - when you least expect it - I’ll strike!”
    Scar hummed, again with that infuriating smirk. “Nope. Never gonna happen. An’ there’s nothin’ you can do about it!”
    Grian brought his free hand out from its fruitless quest behind his back, and tucked a lock of hair behind Scar’s ear. “Is that a challenge, hmm?”

    Scar steals Grian's lucky pencil. Grian refuses to just let it slide.
