Summary
Grace and Rocky are on their way to Erid when they encounter a strange terrestrial vessel that has somehow made its way to space. The single occupant is alive and Grace and Rocky rescue him, but they are then faced with the challenge of gaining this stranger's trust and dealing with the contamination he brought with him.
*slaps roof of fic* This bad boy can fit so many near-death experiences in it! But also friendship! And fucking (eventually)!

Summary
She's been staring at the footage for over an hour today, the chase playing on a loop as it had in the days since it happened, Grace's bright yellow jacket a beacon in the blurs of gray buildings, black coats, and dull green grass. She stares at it for so long that it becomes the only thing she sees in her dreams anymore.

She meant to delete it. She meant to put it behind her and focus on the mission, focus on the Astrophage, focus on putting her betrayal so far back in her mind that she could continue living with her choices.
The videos are archived onto the Hail Mary instead.
Eva Stratt will never know.

Summary
“I’m sorry, please don’t stop, I’ll be better, I promise,” Simon gasps as he shakes his head, gripping Grace’s shirt as his words rattle around his head so harshly they come tumbling out before he can think to stop them. “I’ll be good, I swear.”
“Hey, hey, shh,” a gentle voice washes over his concern, eroding it away bit by bit as hands cup his face. “I gotcha, I’m right here, Flower, I promise.”
As gentle lips return to his quivering ones, Simon’s eyes focus back in on the man over him, guiding him back to the present.

Or
Grace guides Simon through riding him for the first time while talking him through it. Slow and gentle as opposed to the quick and rough treatment he had grown used to.

Summary
Simon’s gaze travels out the front wall, transparent and giving him full range of sight of the beach.
On the other end, he can spot Grace, laughing at something as his final class is coming to an end. He can almost hear the sound of the laugh as it entangles into that of the breeze and the waves. Rocky and Adrian walk along the beach by his side, all talking together about something he can’t make out from here.
Simon’s eyes flick back over to the tree on the opposite side of the greenhouse. “I know. I’m trying.” Simon inhales deeply as he draws his arm across his chest to rub his other shoulder. “I just…”
As he trails off, the room is filled by the sound of dripping water and rustling leaves again.——

Summary
“It’ll work better if you insulate that wire and connect it to the bolt of this gear,” Simon leans in closer as he speaks, pointing to what he’s talking about, his breath hitting the shell of Grace’s ear with each word. “It’ll keep it from short circuiting.” The ghost of contact never made makes Grace want to writhe in his seat, maybe even dare to reach o-
“Ri-” Grace’s voice cracks embarrassingly high before he clears his throat, “right, thank you so much, I will get right on that.”——
Or 5 times Grace short circuits plus one time that… He still short circuits.
So more accurately 5 times Simon unintentionally short circuits Grace, plus one time he intentionally short circuits Grace.
