    Summary

    Grace does so many wonderful things for Simon, which he’s started noticing after really starting to believe he’s not, y’know, dead or dying.

    The only Grace doesn’t do is swear. It’s just Simon’s luck that’s what he wants more than anything.

    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?)

    Summary

    Grace found Simon in the Tau Ceti system and returned with him to Earth and showed him the world that he thought he could only hope to dream of

    Can be read separately but based on my fic Too Good To Be Untrue in this same series just instead Grace and Simon actually go back to Earth in the end (AU where there is no leak, Rocky made it back to Erid safe and sound and happily reunited with Adrian and hailed as a hero to his world)

    Summary

    “Convict,” said the woman with the bone leg, her voice a dusky rattle. “You’ve been brought here to accompany a necromantic adept on a scientific expedition as his protector, in exchange for the pardon of your sentence.”
    “You’ll kind of be like my cavalier,” said the gorgeous man jovially.
    “He is not a cavalier,” corrected the woman. “Not even close.”

    aka: the locked tomb bloodymary au that (literally!) came to me in a dream. Simon is a former prisoner of the Ninth house prison tasked with protecting necromancer Ryland Grace and his best friend/fossil bone construct on a dangerous mission to a planet full of mysterious necromancy. fun stuff ensues.
