    Summary

    “Is it okay if I touch you?” the man breathes.

    Simon doesn't know why he asks. No, it's not okay. None of this is okay.

    “Please,” he continues when Simon doesn't respond. “I-I need permission.”

    Simon closes his eyes. It's his own type of silent defiance. If this man isn't just fucking with him – if he does, for some strange reason, feel bad or guilty about capturing him, then good. Let him drown in it.

    Simon is captured by a compulsive liar who, bafflingly, gives him food, smiles at him, and pretends the Quiet Rapture never happened.

    Grace saves the life of a violent human who seems to be under the terrifying delusion that every star and planet has disappeared without a trace.

    Summary

    ”Have robot arms check you arm before you get Beetles,” Rocky insists. He taps the wall again. ”Been hurting you more since before power outage and arms no change cloth in sleep.”

    “They probably didn’t because of the outage. I’ll have the NannyBot check it before I get ready,” Grace says, absentmindedly rubbing the offending appendage. He’s not exactly surprised that Rocky’s noticed his increased discomfort. He figures it’s because of the lack of painkillers and from spending hours inspecting the fuel lines for Taumoeba contamination, but doesn’t voice it. He knows the Eridian already feels bad about his ammonia burns and pushing him off the pain meds.’

     

    Or: Grace and Rocky run into an unfortunate complication when getting ready to execute their plan to escape planet Adrian.

    Summary

    After decades of waiting, Adrian’s mate finally comes home. They can’t be anything but ecstatic when they see Rocky land on Erid unscathed. He’s home at last. There was to be no more waiting. But as the families of the rest of the crew bombard Rocky with questions, the joy of the moment fades. He’s the only survivor. And he has one very important piece of cargo on his alien spaceship. One that’s desperately in need of medical care and a low-pressure environment composed mostly of nitrogen and oxygen. He won’t say anything until this request is fulfilled. Adrian’s never seen him more panicked.

    …the next few years are a whirlwind of events…

    Summary

    They say when you assume you make an ass of you and me.

    Matt wishes that the Avenger's assumptions about his seeming inability to read the written word did something as benign as making an ass of him and them. Being called illiterate shouldn't hurt, not when he knows he's not, and it's not like he can tell them the truth.

    Not that the truth would make much difference. He's just going to have to grin and bear it.

    If he can.
