    Summary

    Simon's usually stoic face scrunched with confusion. "What are you doing?"

    "Well- I just, ya know. I just wanted to-" Grace closed his eyes and took a deep breath that did nothing to calm his nerves before he shakily managed out. "I made you, a bouquet."

    Simon's expression only twisted further into distress, "Why did you do that?"

    Grace felt his measly courage wheeze out of him like a pathetic balloon, letting out a weak little, "Huh?"

    After a moment for this brain to catch up with his mouth, he gulped and opened his mouth to try again, then stopped. Started again. "It’s… flowers."

    "Yes," Simon said slowly, "I can see that."

    Grace swallowed and tentatively added, "…For you."

    That landed wrong. Simon’s immediately tensed, not in anger, more like suspicion and concern. He eyed the flowers with pursed lips before slowly drawing out another, "Why?"

    "What?"
    ———————
    Or the five times Grace attempted to woo Simon the human way, and the one time he tried it the Eridian way.

    Summary

    Simon focused on the view. So many stars. They were beautiful, and he was happy they'd be the last thing he'd see.
    "I'm ready." Simon whispered into the still air. The combing stopped, and Simon mourned the loss immediately.
    "You can kill me now."
    AKA: What if Simon misinterpreted why Grace was showing him the Greenhouse? Our bodies become the soil, after all.

    Summary

    Simon knew better than to trust the intentions of the man who saved him. Everyone wanted something. Even Ryland Grace, who had a ship full of everything a man could need. The only thing the scientist lacked was human company.

    Which meant that Grace wanted something only another person could give.
