    Summary

    Carl had never really believed in ghosts. Until he saw one with his very own eyes.

    He sucked in a breath as he approached Grace’s headstone, seeing someone who could only be described as the ghost of Dr. Grace sitting in front of it with his head in his hands. Whispering something under his breath.

    Against his better judgment, he called out. “Grace?”

    Or-

    Carl goes to visit the grave of an old friend. The last thing he expects to see is Grace's ghost sitting in front of his own grave.

    Summary

    “I… Colt, I am in completely sound mind, okay?” Ryland starts off, obviously prefacing something. “So, when I say something, I know that it-it’s true. I don’t say just anything without—without fact checking. Scientific method and all that.” Ryland is rambling, some of his words high in the back of his throat in a strange, song like fashion, mostly at the end of his sentences. Colt’s body sends him another wave of wrong, wrong, wrong.

    Ryland rips off the metaphorical bandaid and the wound is deeper, more grotesque than Colt was ever prepared for. “Okay. So, I was just in interstellar space. On this ship, for years, but I didn’t have enough food for the longest time. I had to have starved to death, right? So, I think I died, because I woke up on Earth.” Colt’s insides plummet down, down, down a cliff—a familiar feeling since he throws himself off actual twenty story buildings daily.

    Summary

    “That’s mine,” Stratt says immediately when he finally catches up to her and offers up his cardigan. “Why do you have it,” she asks, kind of.

    “Uh, no. This one’s mine, you klepto.” He takes her coffees from her with one hand but doesn’t let go of the cardigan just yet. Something about how tightly she’s grasping it makes his eye twitch. He really likes this one.

    “First of all, this is a woman’s cardigan. I’ve owned it for ten years.” She yanks hard on the fabric and Grace’s elbow is forcibly extended when he doesn’t let go. “This is not yours.”

    “Nuh-uh.” He yanks back. “I got this cardigan when we flew to London last April, remember? I lost your credit card? It has these elbow patches that make me look all academic and stuff.” He twists his elbows around to try and show her.

    in other news:

    Stratt and Grace fall into the habit of sharing clothes but they justify it in a really complicated way.

    Summary

    Time is a fickle thing.

    One day you are young, playing in the rain with a smile etched onto your face. The next day you are old, graduating college and stressing about bills and student loans.

    Then in the next, you are young again, too young and too scared as you are told that you are going to be sent on a suicide mission to save your planet- and in the next heartbeat you are old again, walking with a cane and greying around the edges.

    Then, inexplicably, you are so so so very young again.

    And isn't that a shock for Ryland Grace to wake up to.

    Summary

    Ryland and Colt are identical in looks in pretty much every way, which is quite funny considering they couldn’t have more opposing personalities. When they pretended to be each other, even their mom had a hard time telling them apart. To an untrained eye, they were clones of each other, which led to interesting results over the years.

    Or

    5 times identical twins Ryland and Colt were mixed up, and 1 time where there was no confusion at all.
