    Summary

    “Grace staring at Simon again, statement,” Rocky, very unhelpfully, broke his train of thought. Grace sputtered, shaking his head.

    “I’m not staring, Rocky! I was just – spacing out,” Simon worried his lip, looking back down at his research. Glancing back up to see if Simon had overheard. If he had, that didn’t stop him from continuing his own work; Simon had become obsessed with the mechanics of the ship, fixing everything he could. Which was great, considering Grace was a man of science himself. Hardly knew how to change his tires, really. Simon paused, scratching at the gills on the side of his neck. He had been doing that every few minutes, grimacing.

    “Simon, are your gills bothering you?” Grace couldn’t help himself.

    “So you were staring then, angel?” Simon huffed, not taking his eyes away from what he was working on.

    Summary

    Grace and Rocky encounter another human on their journey back to Erid and it goes something like this:

    “Oh sorry that’s kinda rude of us, right? Rocky is an Eridian from the planet Erid. I’ve been learning to be more fluent in the language, full immersion usually works best, at least according to linguistics, and-"

    “Grace rambling. Note: Human act stupid around potential mate.”

    Grace’s face flushed and he shoved at Rocky’s ball while the man cocked his head to the side, fully confused by the whole sight.

    “Shut up, man,” he hissed at his best friend, making Rocky cackle.

    “Again, I’m sorry! Look, we haven't met anyone else out here for ages. You’re kind of a miracle to us.”

    “You’re kind of an angel to me,” the man then said, voice rough.

    -

    Or: Rocky really, really wants Grace to mate with another human. For science (and Grace's happiness) of course.

    Summary

    Simon wakes up thinking the universe is a cage, survives an eel attack, and then spends the rest of his recovery absolutely refusing to be anyone’s problem.

    That is, until he sees Ryland Grace dancing in a classroom like joy is something that still belongs to him. It makes no sense to Simon. It shouldn’t be possible. But somehow the sight of a ridiculous scientist swaying badly to music he can’t hear becomes the first thing in a long time that feels like life instead of survival, and Simon spends the rest of his time pretending he’s not looking for it again.
