    Summary

    ”Get to work Dr. Grace. The world is counting on you.”

    Stratt turned around and with a wave of her hand another man had walked over, “You’ll be remaining here with Dr. Grace. I trust you can keep him out of trouble.”

    “Shouldn’t be a problem.” The other man’s voice was smooth, and if Grace was hearing correctly it almost sounded like there was an undercurrent of mirth.

    That’s when it clicked, was Stratt siccing a babysitter on him? “Hold on! What trouble are you thinking I'm going to get into?” Should he be offended? He was a grown man, he’d worked in countless labs before and sure he’d had some questionable outcomes but they’d just let him be the first scientist to study an alien life form! They should have more trust in him than this!

    ”Everyone in the world wants to get their hands on astrophage. Simon is here to protect you from them.” Stratt explained, turning again to give Grace an exasperated expression. “I should hope you don’t need constant supervision from yourself Dr. Grace.”

    (Im not good at summaries, bodyguard!Simon and scientist!Grace, hope you enjoy!)

    Summary

    Simon has spent the last two years working for the COI to obtain a clean record after his participation in the destruction of Filament Station. When he's left on a drifter colony with a scrubbed identity and a tablet, Simon looks into ways to disappear from both the COI's gaze as well as Eden's, which leads him down what is perhaps the strangest avenue he's ever undertaken: a marriage visa.

    Dr. Ryland Grace may or may not know that his friend Rocky has put a marriage profile up whatsoever. Simon is lonely and Rocky is persistent. This may or may not be the worst idea in the history of the universe.

    (or Rocky uses a mail-order-bride broker to find Grace the Best Mate Ever and gets Simon)

    Summary

    Everyone is born in Sin.

    The first doctrine is Penance. Father used to say that suffering is the only way to earn your existence, and that the darkness will always demand its due.

    The second doctrine is Repentance. Back then, it meant weeping for your flaws and obeying who knew better than you. Being here, I am learning that it can also mean accepting you are allowed to survive.

    The final doctrine, Salvation. On Eden, it was something given only to the dead. It took me a long time to see the truth, that salvation isn't a gift. It's something you have to build for yourself.

     

    Or

     

    Grace and Rocky are Saviors of the Universe. They don't have any business tainting their halos with blood.

     

    (title from Dante's Divine Comedy: Inferno, Canto XXXIV)
