    Summary

    It's far too early to hear back from the Hail Mary, so Eva Stratt is uncertain why an unidentified object is headed towards Earth. As the one saddled with all the space nonsense, she moves to retrieve it. What she finds is a spacecraft covered in blood, containing a young woman claiming to be from after the death of the stars. And maybe perchance they kiss.

    Summary

    Romance has never been Ryland's number one concern. This cost him many relationships, but that was better than lying about his priorities, right?

    What does Simon think about this though? Because, Ryland loves him so much! He just can't say that he loves him the most while Rocky exists.

    Summary

    Grace grabs his glasses and puts them on so he can make sure that the person next to him is Simon. He needs to know that Simon isn't a figment of his imagination.

    His boyfriend's face comes into focus. Simon is more awake each time he blinks, eyes focusing on Grace. Wrinkles of concern settle between his eyebrows and on the top of his nose.

    “Ry?”

    Grace makes out Simon's torso with his hands. Smooth skin. Hair. The dip of his navel. Scar tissue. Nipples. The peaks of a few too many ribs. Simon is real. He's here. Grace didn't just invent him out of loneliness. Grace remembers him. Remembers his body and how it feels.

    “Baby,” Simon says.

    “Sorry. Sorry. I—nightmare.”

    -

    Or: Grace has a nightmare that he's forgotten Simon.

    Summary

    The brave knight slays the dragon. That's the way the legends go.

    I should know. I put a lot of work into spreading those tales around, damn it.

    Even if this one didn't go precisely according to plan.

    Or:

    I love the draconic shape. It is a form of glory and terror. That being said, there are definitely drawbacks. For instance, such as when you really feel the need for a good face-palm.
