Summary
"And it’s fine. Really, it’s fine. Dream’s used to it. To the silence when he gets home, to the heavy cold he feels wandering his empty apartment before he logs on and hears his friends’ voices echo from the speakers. It’s uncomfortable, but he’s used to it.
So he buries himself in editing and videos and his friends and Minecraft until he forgets the way it feels to touch and be touched gently, until he forgets the ache and the cold that the Florida heat can’t reach. "Or: Dream gets a hug and his world shifts on its axis.

Summary
backstitch (v.)
The strongest method of hand stitching, where a stitch is sewn one length backwards on the front side and two lengths forward on the back, resulting in a solid line of stitches on both sides of the fabric. Backstitches are very difficult to break once sewn, and will often last longer than the fabric they're holding together.
Or: Zenitsu offers to teach Tanjiro sewing. While Zenitsu is also grappling with a crush on Tanjiro. This will definitely end well. -

Summary
An Eridian mining crew find a human welded into a stranded ship on the surface of a moon. They bring him back to Erid, to the only other human they know.
Something in Grace's chest flickered into life. He had buried it so long ago that he hardly knew what it was anymore, and so he took off his glasses and cleaned them on the edge of his cardigan, as if Rocky's words were a smudge he could clear away before finding the will to hope.
“Ah…” his words failed halfway out of his mouth. Rocky chittered at him, a little sound of encouragement. “There’s another human? Here. And… alive?”
** Work is complete but new chapters may be added if the whimsy takes me**

Summary
The Eridians have finally gotten the water feature in Ryland's personal zoo enclosure just right (even if Rocky would like him to stop calling his dome that).
Rocky refuses to believe that humans naturally float. There is no way Ryland's entire species regularly goes into deep water for fun.
