Summary
Simon wakes up. He hadn't thought he would wake up after his lungs were filled with blood. And yet, here he is, in a pitch-black room, wounds tended to, listening to the most beautiful song he's ever heard.
He's in a world where the stars are alive, and he's been rescued from his blood-soaked iron coffin by a strange, clever little rock-spider alien trying to save the stars. Of course he'll help. Too bad neither of them are biologists...
But the new human ship approaching them might have someone aboard who is... if they don't turn Simon into a lab rat first, anyway.[BloodyMary where Simon gets wormholed to PHM 'verse but it's before the Hail Mary arrives, so he's saved by Rocky and spends a while on the Blip-A]

Summary
“You sure you wanna be here? If Rasputin doesn’t shoot that thing down…”
Saffron appeared beside Aurora’s head. “I’ve done the calculations. If Rasputin can’t stop it, there will be enough time for me to transmat both of them to Aurora’s Skiff and get far enough away.”
Drifter winced. “Why be here at all?”
“To see the Great Machine,” Mikris explained. “To feel its Light. Tevis… deserves it, most of all. To see what we could be part of.”
Drifter softened. “I hope so, sister. Let’s go, careful.”Series

Summary
Not every Guardian learns of their past. Some aren't so lucky.
How do you cope with learning you were once a killer? A monster? How do you cope with people treating you as a hero for killing gods when none of them know what you did before your death?

A Thousand White Lilies by en__chiladas

Summary
The man turned toward me, he was wearing a heavyweight parka over a green jumpsuit uniform, and for some reason, I couldn't stop staring at his eyes behind those thick glasses. It was also green. But not the pale kind or the dull kind. It was bright green. The sort of eyes that immediately grabbed your attention and refused to let go.
Then I noticed the expression attached to those eyes.
Oh. That was definitely not gratitude I am seeing over there, buddy.
Or, Grace wakes from a coma with no memory of the events of Hail Mary, but this grumpy engineer who can turn him into a complete mess somehow feels hauntingly familiar.

Summary
Doctoral student Ryland Grace is informed, in no uncertain terms, that he is to be seduced. Fortunately, he's completely down for that, especially coming from the charming asshole engineering student he's been TAing.

Summary
Simon just irradiated 3 people and got dropped back into the blood ocean. He'd love to wallow in his mistakes, but there's something shifting just behind the wall...
Ryland Grace does not know that "Ryland Grace" is his name, nor does he know where he is or who the hell this scrappy man is next to him.
(Freshly amnesia-d Grace appears in the SM-13, and now they BOTH have to deal with it)

Summary
Out on parole and down an arm, Simon's chances of landing a legal, steady paycheck grow slimmer by the day. When his parole officer plants the idea of becoming a blood and plasma donor in his head, it leads him into the dark corridors of the City Under the City - and directly to Dr. Ryland Grace, a vampire who lives under a museum.
Simon's Contract is simple: provide a meal on a schedule, get paid. Purely business... well, until it isn't anymore, at least.
...whoops.

Summary
Once I’m within range, I start hearing those sounds Rocky was talking about, little groans and hitches of breath. He’s trying to keep himself quiet, I can tell, another bad habit of his.
Wait, there’s something else, too, a sort of faint squelching? Well, he’s either very vigorously washing his hand - but, no, I don’t hear the water running - or he’s-
Suddenly, I hear what is very clearly a moan from the other side of the door, even if muffled.
Oh.
Oh my god.
Or when Rocky hears Simon making some concerning sounds in the Hail Mary’s bathroom, he sends Grace to go check on him, and the man is met with quite the surprise.
Title from Do I Wanna Know? by Artic Monkeys (but I’m specifically thinking of the Hozier cover y’know?)
