    Summary

    Simon's last wish as his consciousness faded was for Eden and the consequences of the Quiet Rapture were to have never occured. He's not sure where he'd ended up but it had given him enough time to process some of what the hell just happened.

    Meanwhile, aboard the Hail Mary, Grace and Rocky were parsing out Grace's food problem after a stroke of good luck while digging through storage, when a mysterious Blip appeared on the ship's radar.

    Summary

    It is red. A bright, remarkable red. Ryland unbuckles himself, stepping around Rocky to press his hand to the window, and rubs at his eyes when his vision blurs. “Rocky.”

    “Grace-friend sit down. Head leaking.”

    “It’s got an ocean.”

    -

    An AU where Simon survives to be found by Grace, and accidentally brings something else with him.

    Summary

    At first, there was nothing but static. For a few seconds, which might've been the longest seconds Grace had ever experienced, there was no comprehensible sound outside of the fuzzy feedback of an unstable connection. Grace furrowed his brow, trying desperately to make out something, anything at all.

    Little by little, the signal cleared up enough to where he could just start to make out the sound of something...?

    No.

    Someone... Singing?

    His heart rattled in his chest as the singing continued, suddenly keenly aware that he probably needed to say something. It'd been so, so long-

    "Uh- Hello?"

    Almost immediately, the singing stopped. Grace found himself missing it. Just a little bit. He stood with bated breath, hoping, praying that he hadn't scared the voice off. A clatter of something falling on the ground, heavy, clumsy thuds that sounded like heavy boots hitting metal, static...

    Grace tried again. "Hello? Is anyone there?"

    Then, clear as day,

    'Hello...? Are.. who... who are you?'

    (This story happens slightly before the events of Iron Lung, shortly after PHM)

    Summary

    Simon is supposed to be dead. The last thing he remembers is a half formed prayer on his lips as The Blood Eel unmakes him.

    Hail Mary, full of Grace.

    Grace is unsure how this man blipped into existence inside the Hail Mary, but holy moly is he attractive. Once you get past all the blood, that is.
