    Summary

    “I called it the Good Luck quilt,” Grace says. “It’s all symbols of luck from across the world, it was a parting gift before the mission - but let’s not get into all that. It’s silly but it’s comforted me through some pretty hard times. I thought…I don’t know. I’m probably just being sentimental.”

    Simon grasps the edge of the quilt that he can reach, if only to make sure it’s real. It’s beautiful. There’s not a lot of color left in the world, and colorful, soft fabric of this quality is worth a fortune. The patterns are joyful, almost childish. For some reason that Simon can’t quite articulate through the sickness and exhaustion, it makes him suddenly very certain that this isn’t the COI.

    In Simon’s old universe, fabric, thread, and yarn are all precious commodities. He's had to learn to mend clothes and knit socks out of practicality. On Erid, it's a way to pay back what he owes, to make friends, and eventually, to heal.
    A love letter fiber crafts and the people who do them, an exploration of physical disability, and of course, a very soft love story.

    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.

    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

    "If you're lying to me- I'l hurt you. I'll do it."

    “No problem. I’m not lying, so. No need for that.”

    “I’m serious.”

    Grace can’t help himself.

    “Nice to meet you, Serious. I’m Dr. Ryland Grace. Um- but everyone around here calls me Grace."

    Silence.

    “That’s your cue to tell me your name,” he notes.

    The continued silence is deafening. Wide shoulders heave with heavy breath, that dark gaze tightening at Grace’s further insistence. Greasy, inky hair falls around his face, unruly tendrils shielding scarred skin from the outside.

    //

    Halfway back to Erid, the Hail Mary receives her third and final passenger.
