ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse concupiendam by janie_tangerine

Summary
“Right. And how do you feel when you talk to this guy? Just checking.”
“Is this really necessary?”
“I’m afraid it is.”
He breathes in. “I don’t know, if he doesn’t come to class because he can’t move his shift around it’s a disappointment, the one time we went for drinks after it because we’re apparently on a first name basis now, I could barely drink because my entire stomach was clenching on itself all the time but not in a bad way, when he handed me my glass in the pub my fingers brushed against his and I’m not going to tell you what I spent the entire ride back home thinking because you don’t deserve to be subjected to that, too, and I don’t know, I left my nine month old daughter with him when I barely knew his damned name, what else should I even say now?”
Jon takes another sip of tea. “Congratulations,” he says, “you’re really into this guy.”
Stannis wants to die inside.
“And there’s nothing bad about it.”
Or: in which archaeology TA Stannis Baratheon has to juggle teaching a class he hates, being a single father and having fallen for the university's janitor who also attends his classes.

Summary
“Grace?” Simon was looking back at him, a bit irritated at how Grace was gawking.
“Sorry.” He should say something… right? If he was going to continue, he couldn't just ignore them. “I noticed your… gills.”

Summary
Grace is coming to terms with living on Erid, being the only human is fine. He has Rocky, he is getting along with Adrian too, and Armando is always around for a chat. So why does he still get an aching feeling in his chest like something is missing from his life? It's something he doesn't want to think about too much, no point when its gonna give him nothing but grief.
That is until Rocky gives him the news, during the Eridian's mission to continue space exploration, they found... a person? Stranded on their own, just like Grace once was. With the new human on route to Erid, Grace contemplates all the ways that this could change his life.
or
Socially isolated Ryland Grace navigates a relationship with a terribly attractive traumatized man brought to him by the Eridians.
