Summary
WARNING for some coarse language, a do-it-yourself beta, and a rather heavy handed romantic metaphor. If that's within your tolerances, proceed:)
THE case had been awful, one of their very worst. The press, fuck em' all, had glamorized the UnSub with the sobriquet 'Botticelli’s Apprentice'. All male victims, all attractive, androgynous, wavy or curly hair, and Rossi *had* to mention they looked like Reid. And then Hotch couldn't stop seeing Reid every time he looked at a victim. (Thanks, Dave. Thanks a lot.) And then he couldn't stop looking at Reid. Hotch started to rub his eyes more than usual.

Summary
Originally posted in Spring of 2000: The Surly One gives Moose and Squirrel a long overdue
piece of his mind. Skinner hasn’t been truly surly in such a long
time. For the last couple of seasons, I think he’s been poorly
written on the show. He seems docile, almost ... dare I say it...
wimpy. He doesn’t seem to be the same man who told Smoky to “pucker
up and kiss my ass”. Well, if you want something done right...

Summary
Simon believes he's hallucinating. That the man he keeps seeing and the pristine ship he repeatedly finds himself in aren't real. That that monster is fucking with his head.
Grace believes he's got a lot more on his plate than just the fate of the earth, and he's not sure which task is more impossible: stopping the astrophage without any memories, or saving one man in another universe.
OR
By getting yanked between universes, Grace gets to experience the horrors, Simon gets to save the stars, and Rocky gets two (2!) humans for the price of one.
--------------------
"-so I think, and here's the part I'm really afraid of, I think ninety nine point nine percent of humanity got turned into blood soup," Grace says.
"And Simon currently trapped in human blood soup, question?" Rocky asks.
He lets his head fall back and closes his eyes. "Hes in the soup. Hes so in the soup Rocky."

Summary
Simon survived something that should have killed him. Surviving Grace's care is a different kind of hard. Between the stars they're both trying to save and the ocean neither of them can quite leave behind, something steadier than either expected starts to take root.

Summary
Grace had "made peace" with the fact that he was going to live out the rest of his days on Erid inside a biodome, never seeing or interacting with another human person again. It was a small price to pay for saving the life of his best friend and an entire planet of intelligent life.
Simon had "made peace" with the fact that he was going to die at the bottom of the blood ocean, alone in the dark with no hope of rescue. Because not everyone gets to be saved.
Neither of them expected fate to intervene on their behalf.
After being rescued by an Eridian survey team, Simon is trying to find his footing in a place that challenges everything he knows. Meanwhile, Grace tries to solve the mysteries surrounding the handsome stranger sharing his living space. Both of them might find more than they were expecting in one another.
In the end, "making peace" is just something you say.
