Summary
Grace is sick. He doesn't want to admit it. He doesn't want to be a burden. So he hides it and tells himself he just needs to finish one more tablet.
But Simon has spent months learning to read Grace the way Grace read him. And when Simon finds Grace's abandoned thermal blanket and follows the trail of sniffles to a shivering, feverish scientist who can't stop apologizing for feeling things.
"I've got you" Simon says, pulling Grace into his arms.
Or:
The one where Grace got sick and cries a lot and Simon is an overprotective heating pad.

Summary
Whenever Simon looks at Ryland, chewing on the cap of a ballpoint pen as he grades his students’ quizzes, unaware of the late hour, sitting on their couch, wearing his soft cardigan, his glasses perched on the end of his nose, he thinks he’d like this in his future.
And for a harrowing moment, he fears this one singular dream he allows himself to cradle close to his heart will be ripped away from him before he can make it a proper reality.
"Ryland, he's gone."

Summary
When Grace gets seemingly teleported by means unknown into the SM-13 right as it was nearing The Light, both Simon and Grace have no idea what is happening.

Could-Secure-Our-Survival Smart.
She orders Simon to bring Grace back to the surface, and thus begins Grace's ordeal in a starless universe.- Language:

Summary
Simon's been on Erid, physically, for 2 months.
He's been conscious for only a week.
He doesn't trust Grace or Rocky by any stretch of the word, not even sure he's convinced those are their real names.
And yet, seeing the usually cheerful, compassionate, and unnervingly trusting scientist so afraid had felt like a cold dead weight in his stomach.
or
Some overzealous Eridians(its quite literally a cult) decide to take matters into their own hands regarding their saving grace. All while Simon is still recovering from the blood ocean.

Summary
“I-I’m sorry…I ne….” He frog-blinked a few times, his grip on the scalpel loosening briefly, then tightening again.
“ I nee…d…to go h-h-ome…” The man leaned in closer, and Simon almost couldn’t handle those eyes. “I donn’t wanna hurt… youuuoo but I’m sorry I…need to find…” His balance was off, as if he didn’t notice that he was missing a leg.
Simon swallowed. “...Your arm is bleeding.”

Summary
He’s in heaven. If nothing else, he’s now certain that he’s in heaven because there’s an angel in his sights, separated by glass, presumably so that Simon wouldn’t infect him with his humanity. The angel is the most beautiful thing he’s ever seen: eyes as blue as what he imagined ice to look like, hair as yellow as a cornfield. Lips...the angel’s lips look to be as soft as the leaf he’d stolen from the tree of Eden, when he was but a child.
The angel’s stare is fixed on Simon, and he realises that this must be a test from God, because Simon is undeserving of the attention of a being as lovely as the one in front of him. The one looking at him as if he were the miracle.
Simon sleeps and dreams of rough, tanned hands with no red beneath the fingernails. They caress his face, soft and gentle, travelling up to his hair and suddenly he’s underwater, breathing in blood, dying as angels sing beneath the surface, their crooked smiles bringing him peace.
or, simon shows up on erid, vomits up blood, and grace fucks w it big time

Summary
A Eridian scout ship finds an injured human and returns him to Erid. Doctor Ryland Grace is initially excited by the prospect of another human being! But after a catastrophically failed first encounter where Ryland tries to save this newcomer's life as the expense of any trust, they must learn relearn to trust each other.
---
“If you leave,” Ryland pulled himself to his knees, “You’ll die.” He pressed his hands to his knees and stood to his full height.He lunged again, driving the stranger’s body into the wall. A pained roar echoed off the walls and threatened to drown out all else. A fist connecting with the side of his head. His vision blackened, vignetted at the edges. Grace screamed an answering roar of his own. Before his legs gave out, he dug in his heels, struggling against the man fighting for his life against him.

Summary
With Simon, his issues are clear. he doesn't care to hide them, nor is he good at it. It always blows up.
With Ryland... It's harder to tell. Simon knows he's been hurt, but not the extent of it. He's also rather upset that it takes a fever nearly boiling Ryland's brain for any of it to properly come to light.

Summary
His arm twists painfully behind him as he’s dragged along towards the large box, which now sits open before him. He recognizes distantly that it’s made of the soundproofing material Eridians use to make private rooms. An Eridian wouldn’t be able to see the inside.
He realizes it's just the right size for him.
---
The Eridians have done their best to treat Ryland Grace well since he saved their planet. At least, most of them. A few years after his arrival, he is abducted by a group more interested in his biology than his wellbeing. Rocky and the others scramble to find him, before it's too late.

Summary
“Is the alien…dangerous?” he asks slowly.
“No! No, no he’s my friend, he’s - uh, well, the engineer of the Hail Mary,” says Grace. “Look, I’m just saying that - he’s gonna wake up soon, and we don’t need to tell him about how our first meeting went. We can gloss over the whole ‘tackle me to the ground and scare the daylights out of me’ thing. I won’t tell if you won’t.”
Simon is 90% sure this is going to come back to bite him in the form of blackmail but he nods anyways, because it sure as hell sounds like Grace is implying Simon will be allowed to stay a while longer.
Rocky sleeps through the absolute shitshow that is Simon and Grace’s first meeting. It’s probably for the best.
Despite it all, it will be the start of beautiful friendship.Bookmarked by Local_Loser24

Summary
“We are salvation! We can save everyone, within us!” the dissonance of voices continued louder than before. Simon let out a primal scream as he tightened his grip on the being. It desperately grabbed at his arms to pull them away, but he held firm. Simon would not let the blood ocean win without taking something with him.
“Simon-!” The voices echoed underneath the blood that lapped up his forearms. Simon squeezed his eyes shut from the cacophony of voices bouncing about the small sub and within his head. His mind throbbed from the discord of voices surrounding him and the pain spreading to every nerve in his body.
“Simon… Please – stop!”--- OR ---
Simon’s night terrors occasionally get out of hand. This time Grace was in the way.

Summary
“Grace. What are you testing, question?”
Rocky. I can’t put this all on the guy right now. He should be happy. We are going to Erid. We are going to save his planet.
“CBC. A complete blood count.” I answer, hoping he doesn’t ask me why.
“Purpose, question?”
Rocky, please. I’m trying to spare you right now.
Basically, Grace gets exposed to a dangerous amount of radiation during an EVA and doesn't want to tell Rocky bc of what happened to Rocky's crew <3
THIS IS A REWORKED VERSION OF "TEMPEST" - after some comments, I wanted to keep the soul of the story, but make it more scientifically plausible. While there are still probably some inaccuracies, I still hope this isn't as messy as before.
