Summary
Simon didn’t expect his savior to be exactly his type.
What a welcome sight. Even if this stupidly handsome man ends up being evil, or working for the C.O.I, at least he’d die looking at something good.
or
Grace and Rocky find Simon's ship floating in deep space on their way to Erid.
UPDATE: This fic has been peer reviewed by a NASA engineer who has approved of the science!

Summary
"Grace, question?” Rocky says from his tunnel.
“Yeah?” I peek my head up, wiping nonexistent dust off my pants. The storage compartment was almost completely sterile, but I needed something to do with my hands.
“All okay, question?” There’s a slight quiver in the notes of his voice that I’ve come to recognize as hesitance.
“Of course, buddy.” I laugh disbelievingly, as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
Ryland finds Yao’s gun and he is perfectly normal about it, thank you very much. He’s only been stuck in the same environment eating the same meals everyday for a year now. He’s fine.

Summary
We're almost at Erid. I have to tell him before we get in range of whatever radio-equivalent they use. He deserves to know, to have the chance to tell everyone before I land. He should know I’m a coward before he convinces his planet to funnel all their resources into keeping me alive.
I've thought it through so many times, in the years since I remembered.
‘Hey Rocky, I need to tell you something.’
‘Hey Rocky, you know how you always call us brave? Well…’
‘Hey Rocky so the actual reason I had amnesia when I met you was because I said no when they asked me to save my planet even though I was the only qualified candidate and they forced me to and I said if they sent me I'd kill everyone by sabotaging the mission so Stratt gave me some insane amnesia drug.’
Not exactly a conversation anyone wants to have ever, let alone with their roommate in a ship with no escape. Not something anyone wants to hear from the person they're relying on to save their people, either.

Summary
“You know I’m a little bit in love with you, right?” Sokka says after a while, muffled into Zuko’s hair. The other boy makes a little noise of surprise and stiffens up for a moment, but then he melts back into Sokka, as if he’s trying to eliminate every bit of space between them.
“Really?” Zuko whispers.
“Really,” Sokka says, raking a hand through his hair.
“Oh,” Zuko says. “Well, that’s good, because I’m a little bit in love with you too.”
---
Or, in a world where you start having prophetic dreams about your future with your soulmate after you first meet them, Sokka and Zuko struggle to find their place. (They'll find it eventually, I swear.)
