Summary
Doctor Captain Ryland Grace had found home on Erid thanks to his best friend, Rocky. Though he has just about all he needs, he still can't ignore the itch of something missing. An itch that turns to something more troubling when a stranger in need of help shows up in his dome and starts to stir all sorts of conflicting feelings under his skin.

Summary
Ryland Grace lived his whole life wondering why his soulstring stretched out all the way to the sky. It took him a one-way ticket to Tau Ceti, another one-way ticket to Erid, and a special delivery in the form of a bloody submarine to finally learn the answer. It is strange, though, how his soulmate never seems to address their soul string but has a habit of staring deep into his eyes.
AKA; A soulmate AU where Simon arrives on Erid five years after Grace did. The two of them learn how to heal from the past and feel excitement for a future they never expected to have. First two chapters are about Simon's arrival to Erid but the rest focuses on their personal growth, developing feelings for each other, and understanding of how soulmate systems works.

Summary
Uncle Holland chuckles, “I’m a private eye, kiddo. I see all.”
“Yeah, and what do you see?” He fixes his glasses with a challenging glare.
“You,” He harshly pokes Ryland’s chest, and then throws a thumb over his shoulder to indicate the door Simon disappeared behind, “making googly eyes at Mr. Tall-Dark-and-Broody back there.”
(Or, Ryland is a pianist and Simon is a bartender, they both work weddings. Holland's also here being nosy about his nephew's love life.)

“Grace?..”
Oh.
Oh fudge, he sounds terrified.
I forget my own nyctophobia in an instant.
“Simon? Simon, can you— can you keep talking to me? I’ll come find you. Or you can follow my voice and come to me instead? Uh— where are you?”
He is silent.
Fudge.
Or: the biodome lights go out in the middle of Grace's class, and no one reacts badly to it. At all.
(alternatively: Simon doesn't do well with the darkness, but Grace is there to remind him about the light)Bookmarked by NameNotLynn

So Ryland Grace will love Simon until the day he dies.
And Ryland Grace will love Simon in the next life, and the one after that, and all the ones after that.
And Ryland Grace will sit on an empty shore of a dead sea under a forgotten moon and watch Simon live a long, full life; loved and safe and happy and free, trails of ice crystals and moondust left in his wake as he chases the light of thousands of shining stars.

“Grace?”
“Yeah, buddy?” Grace said happily, grabbing the multi-bit tool from the deepest drawer in the tool chest, closing it with a satisfying clunk.
“Mary manual flight restriction protocols,” Rocky ventured cautiously. “Rocky helped Grace reset those.”
“Yeah, you did, bud.”
“Yes yes, Rocky remember. Rocky have very good memory. Rocky help Grace reset those after last time Simon ‘hotwire’ them.”
“Mhm!”
“Grace.”
“Yeah, Rock?”
“Why Grace letting Simon hotwire Mary again after Grace get Rocky to help reset protocols?”

He pauses the second the coffee hits his tongue, blinking down at his mug like he's seeing it for the first time again.
"What? Did I not make it right?"
"No, it-" Graces shakes his head.
Simon is paused awkwardly by the table, one arm half outstretched as if ready to take Grace's mug at any moment and replace it with more perfect coffee somehow.
Grace swallows. "It's perfect."
You really remembered? he doesn't say. It didn't quite hit him earlier and it feels like a sucker punch to the gut now. Simon remembers how he takes his coffee after years of no contact when his last failed situationship a mere six months ago could barely remember that Grace wasn't his first name.

Summary
The Eridians stared at me and at each other at the same time (they’re good at multitasking). Then, carefully, as if afraid of overstepping, Larry stood taller and asked “Grace nesting, question?”
And thus, the misunderstanding saw the light of… well, of the artificial biodome lights the Eridian engineers crafted for me.
I knew the Eridians referred to various bed-related activities as nesting. Rocky called me nesting when I brought various blankets and soft things to my bed back on the Mary. But nesting could also mean cuddling up with one’s mate, cleaning the bedroom area and more. I’d assumed they meant the cleaning part.
(Big mistake. Big. Huge! as Julia Roberts would kindly remind me.)
“Yeah, you could say that,” I replied.

In which Grace airing his and Simon's bedsheets outside one day begins a colossal misunderstanding.

Summary
“Grace staring at Simon again, statement,” Rocky, very unhelpfully, broke his train of thought. Grace sputtered, shaking his head.
“I’m not staring, Rocky! I was just – spacing out,” Simon worried his lip, looking back down at his research. Glancing back up to see if Simon had overheard. If he had, that didn’t stop him from continuing his own work; Simon had become obsessed with the mechanics of the ship, fixing everything he could. Which was great, considering Grace was a man of science himself. Hardly knew how to change his tires, really. Simon paused, scratching at the gills on the side of his neck. He had been doing that every few minutes, grimacing.
“Simon, are your gills bothering you?” Grace couldn’t help himself.
“So you were staring then, angel?” Simon huffed, not taking his eyes away from what he was working on.

Rocky's (lengthy) guide to human mating by somebocly

Summary
Grace and Rocky encounter another human on their journey back to Erid and it goes something like this:
“Oh sorry that’s kinda rude of us, right? Rocky is an Eridian from the planet Erid. I’ve been learning to be more fluent in the language, full immersion usually works best, at least according to linguistics, and-"
“Grace rambling. Note: Human act stupid around potential mate.”
Grace’s face flushed and he shoved at Rocky’s ball while the man cocked his head to the side, fully confused by the whole sight.
“Shut up, man,” he hissed at his best friend, making Rocky cackle.
“Again, I’m sorry! Look, we haven't met anyone else out here for ages. You’re kind of a miracle to us.”
“You’re kind of an angel to me,” the man then said, voice rough.
-
Or: Rocky really, really wants Grace to mate with another human. For science (and Grace's happiness) of course.

Summary
Simon wakes up thinking the universe is a cage, survives an eel attack, and then spends the rest of his recovery absolutely refusing to be anyone’s problem.
That is, until he sees Ryland Grace dancing in a classroom like joy is something that still belongs to him. It makes no sense to Simon. It shouldn’t be possible. But somehow the sight of a ridiculous scientist swaying badly to music he can’t hear becomes the first thing in a long time that feels like life instead of survival, and Simon spends the rest of his time pretending he’s not looking for it again.
