Summary
“I don’t一” Simon’s voice is soft and broken and he hates it, he hates the fear permeating his entire body. “I don’t want you to be a hallucination.”
Grace’s faint mumbles and a strange whistling voice die down. Then Grace says, “This is real. It’s real, and we’re getting you out. I promise.”
Simon closes his eyes. He breathes out.
“My name,” he says. His voice is rough with unshed tears. “My name is Simon.”
“Nice to meet you, Simon. Hang tight. We’ll be there soon.”
-
Simon is rescued from the blood ocean by a stranger who calls himself a scientist, who claims to be on his way to an alien planet called Erid. Aboard the Hail Mary, Simon has to contend with the fact that dimensional travel maybe exists, living on a space ship, and somehow surviving the struggles of deep space—all while maybe falling in love with the strange man with blue eyes.Series

Summary
Ryland’s starting to think the human from the submarine isn’t really a human at all, not anymore. It doesn't matter, he wants Simon all the same.
Or,
Simon knows that Ryland Grace is an angel, he just can’t figure out how he got to heaven. He’s not complaining, though it took becoming a devil himself to finally behold the divine.

Summary
“Is the alien…dangerous?” he asks slowly.
“No! No, no he’s my friend, he’s - uh, well, the engineer of the Hail Mary,” says Grace. “Look, I’m just saying that - he’s gonna wake up soon, and we don’t need to tell him about how our first meeting went. We can gloss over the whole ‘tackle me to the ground and scare the daylights out of me’ thing. I won’t tell if you won’t.”
Simon is 90% sure this is going to come back to bite him in the form of blackmail but he nods anyways, because it sure as hell sounds like Grace is implying Simon will be allowed to stay a while longer.
Rocky sleeps through the absolute shitshow that is Simon and Grace’s first meeting. It’s probably for the best.
Despite it all, it will be the start of beautiful friendship. -

Summary
Grace laid Simon down into bed and tucked him underneath the covers. He stood to leave, but Simon's fingers caught the inside of his wrist, right at his pulse point, and he whispered two words.
"Stay. Please."
His voice was hoarse, and beyond that, broken, as though something fundamental within him had to shift without his permission, and he could not reassemble the pieces by himself.'
5 times Grace attempts to take care of Simon, and 1 time Simon looks after Grace.

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
Colt Seavers is asked to be a Stunt Coordinator for TerryBytes first film while Tom Ryder is on an "indefinite hiatus" that films in San Francisco. He accepts because the pay is great and he gets to hang out with his twin brother during filming.
Simon Fisher is a brand new stuntman with a past he's trying to outrun that just wants to do a good job. When he learns the legendary Colt Seavers is joining, he thinks this is his big break. Then he meets Colt's twin brother, and damnit he's just Simon's type.
Ryland Grace is just a science teacher, his brother is the big deal, not that he's particularly fond of what Colt does for a living. Well, okay, maybe it's not all that bad, especially not when he gets to be on set for his favorite Youtubers new movie when class gets out. But ope, his stuntman is the most handsome guy he's ever met.
Then Tom Ryder enters the scene again, and all hell breaks loose.

Summary
"I just wanted to live… Was that so wrong?" The stranger asks, and it's clear that they aren't talking to Grace and Rocky anymore. Maybe they never were. "They didn't even ask for my name. They killed me and they didn't even care about who I used to be."
Grace and Rocky find a submarine on their way to Erid. Unfortunately, the strange man inside is barely coherent, and he doesn’t even look human.

Summary
When Grace gets seemingly teleported by means unknown into the SM-13 right as it was nearing The Light, both Simon and Grace have no idea what is happening. Grace knows he was supposed to be in his house on Erid, Simon knows this new guy cannot possibly be a hallucination, and Ava, upon hearing Grace ramble about theories for how he got there, knows that new guy is Smart. Could-Secure-Our-Survival Smart.
She orders Simon to bring Grace back to the surface, and thus begins Grace's ordeal in a starless universe. -

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
“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
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?”

Between Grace's scant first aid and the nanny bot they managed to get the man mostly stable, tucked into Grace's bed and completely dead to the world for the past few days.
It's the same man currently trying to kill him.
or, the Eridians find a man covered in blood and Grace hasn't been able to care for something in far too long.

Summary
“Grace. What are you testing, question?”
Rocky. I can’t put this all on the guy right now. He should be happy. We are going to Erid. We are going to save his planet.
“CBC. A complete blood count.” I answer, hoping he doesn’t ask me why.
“Purpose, question?”
Rocky, please. I’m trying to spare you right now.
Basically, Grace gets exposed to a dangerous amount of radiation during an EVA and doesn't want to tell Rocky bc of what happened to Rocky's crew <3
THIS IS A REWORKED VERSION OF "TEMPEST" - after some comments, I wanted to keep the soul of the story, but make it more scientifically plausible. While there are still probably some inaccuracies, I still hope this isn't as messy as before.
