    Summary

    “I— Yeah,” I cut whoever was speaking off, my voice sounding strange and distant, like I was hearing myself from ten feet away. “I’m fine, I just have to… I think I need… uhm…”

    I was rising to my feet, then, my thoughts blurry and all over the place. As I shuffled out from under the table, I moved too fast and hit the edge of it with my knees. It was a terrible idea — pain flashed through my hips and spine without the help of my cane, which I vaguely registered leaving on the ground as I pushed away from the conference table, took one more look at the people gathered around it…

    And broke out into a run.

    Or: Grace returns to Earth but has trouble adapting to humans again. Humans who stare, and scrutinise, and can read his thoughts at a glance.

    “I don’t know about you, but nearly dying always puts things into perspective for me.” He shrugs and grins and when Rafe looks at him like he wants to murder him, he rolls his eyes. “Not for you, I guess?”

    Summary

    “Why did you bring me back?” she asks quietly, voice pained. She sets her beer down on the table.

    It’s the question that’s been hanging between them for years now. Not why he didn’t believe her. Not why he didn’t stand up for her when it counted. But this.

    Nick downs his glass of wine in one go, expression soft if somewhat strained. He meets her trembling gaze without hesitation.

    “You know why, Ziggy,” he replies softly. “You know.”

    Ziggy grunts a little, overwhelmed by the intensity in his gaze.

    “I wish you hadn’t,” she says. “Do you know that? I wish you had just let me stay dead.”

    “I know,” he says, catching her off guard. “But I couldn’t let you go. I can’t.”

    It should be romantic. If this were a movie, it would be. Ziggy has had him inside her. Has seen him naked and bare and vulnerable. But this confession doesn’t make her heart warm.

    No, she shivers instead. He tracks the movement with his eyes, throat bobbing.

    Or: Ziggy and Nick through the years.
