Summary
It starts when Avery mentions Derek's Youtube channel during a Q&A stream. It continues when they start talking, and then become friends, and keep talking to each other. Somewhere along the line, love comes into the picture, too.
(Youtuber AU where they're happy together, and undoomed, and they become friends and fall in love. It's quite simple, really; this is a world where they can be happy.)

Summary
The Eridian thrills a high sound that doesn’t get picked up by the translator which means that it has no clear meaning. Like when a human gasps or sucks in a deep breath. It actually sounds a little like that. When they notice that I’m staring straight at them they scramble back into their hiding spot and hold very still.
A child, I realize with a start.
That’s a child!
“Hey,” I call and the kid squeaks again. I was about to get to my feet but abort the movement and crawl closer on my hands and knees until I'm inches away from the xenonite wall. I wait and it takes me much too long to realize that they don’t have to peek around the corner to see if I’m still there.
“Hey there,” I try again, my voice low and calm. It’s my teacher voice, the one I use for shy and scared students.
Used.
The fact that I haven’t had to use it for years and it still comes to me automatically almost knocks the air out of my lungs but this is not about me, it’s about making sure the little pebble doesn’t die of fright from the scary alien. “Hi, I’m Grace. It’s alright, you don’t have to be scared.”

Summary
St. Germain crouched next to her, her hearty voice soft in Catherine's ear. “It will make its way out slowly at first, and then all at once. No need to rush it, although it bally well rushed us enough. Do you know the words? Good. Good. You are more ready than you think you are.”
Dragons hatch when they want, and sometimes that is five years too early and into the arms of a terrified teenager.
