    Summary

    So Ryland Grace will love Simon until the day he dies.

    And Ryland Grace will love Simon in the next life, and the one after that, and all the ones after that.

    And Ryland Grace will sit on an empty shore of a dead sea under a forgotten moon and watch Simon live a long, full life; loved and safe and happy and free, trails of ice crystals and moondust left in his wake as he chases the light of thousands of shining stars.

    --

    Three times Ryland Grace thought he was in love, and the one time when it was true.

    Summary

    Even with how entangled he’d find himself (consciously or unconsciously) in other peoples business, he didn’t altogether hate his ability. He was a scientist by nature, after all - forever wondering, forever curious - and to have a front row seat to a phenomenon so misunderstood, so unknown, so debated, was priceless.

    It was his own red thread, though, that proved to be the biggest problem in his ability.

    The most terrifying.

    Because of all the red threads he’d ever seen, he’d never seen one like his.

    He’d never seen one go all the way up into the air, entirely off of Earth altogether.

    Summary

    “I don’t know,” says Simon. “I don’t even know where we’re going, they won’t tell me.” He buries his face in his knees and arms again, and Grace hears something that sounds suspiciously like a sob. Maybe Simon’s eyeballs were sweating too.

    “You have to promise you’ll come back,” Grace demands, his own lower lip trembling. "Pinky promise!" He jabs his pinky into Simon’s cheek and pokes him with it until Simon looks up.

    Simon’s eyes are red-rimmed, but Grace’s glad that he’s managed to surprise just the tiniest smile from him. “I’m not pinky promising, that shit’s for babies,” he says, eyeing Grace’s extended pinky with mock disdain.

    “Then how am I supposed to know you’ll keep your promise?” Grace shoots back.

    “We gotta seal the deal with something else,” Simon says seriously.

     

    or

     

    A modern-day AU with no astrophage or the quiet rapture where Simon and Grace are childhood friends and met at a playground when they were eight.
