Summary
"Simon, are we like, engaged?"
Okay, he wasn't calm. He was borderline shrill. It didn't help when he watched Simon swallow painfully, face losing colour, turning pale and nervous.
"...No?"
Grace's eyebrows shot up into his hairline. "You're not sure?"
***
Or, that time Grace and Rocky steal Simon away from the blood ocean and the starless universe tries to take him back.

Summary
On their way back to Erid, Rocky and Grace discover a mysterious box. Upon opening it, the two discover some strange changes. Well, perhaps way more than strange.
Rocky finds a new marking on his arm similar to Grace's scar, and Grace finds markings similar to Rocky's on his arms and legs.
Rocky begins to dream and can easily wake from sleep, and Grace can stay up for much longer than a normal human should.
Grace starts seeing sound when it's too dark to properly see, and Rocky starts seeing pops of colour in his sound vision.
Neither can understand what's happening to them and how they're seemingly linked together, but they know there's nothing in the world that could tear them apart.
(TLDR: This fic will include almost everyone's favourite things! Rocky learns about how Grace got on the Hail Mary (Including Rocky witnessing the memory of Grace being sent on the Hail Mary)! Grace can survive in Rocky's atmosphere! Grace will live as long as Rocky! Rocky and Adrian reuinite and Adrian meets Grace! Grace will get to go back to Earth with Rocky (for a bit and then go back to Erid)! Grace will get to confront and get closure with Stratt! Fanart included!)

Summary
Grace's tongue is still coated with toothpaste residue. His whole mouth is minty-fresh, and he spent three hours earlier trying to convince Rocky to let him disconnect the mass spec to see if they could hotwire it to work on the floor, and his stomach is cramping and they're still more than a year away from Erid and he doesn't remember what fresh fruit tastes like and he's tired. He's so tired.
So he doesn't notice, at first, when things start to go to hell.
“He's talking about my suppressants,” Grace sighs, rinsing his toothbrush off and dropping it in the cup next to Simon's before bringing both hands up to rub over his face. “I ran out ages ago – well, except for a handful to keep in reserve so we can synthesize more when we get to Erid – so my scent's probably changing. It's why I've been so sweaty. It should equalize, soon, or –”
“Suppressants?” Simon interrupts, and Grace drops his hands to see him backing away, his face contorted in an expression Grace has never seen before, his eyes wide. “Sup- wait. I thought you were a beta. Why would you need suppressants?”
