    Summary

    “Right, no, I'm not even sure you have a secret, you've never been the secretive type”, Colt stands near the window, looking down at the street.
    “I hooked up with Tom Ryder.”
    Colt freezes.

    OR, Ryland shares something to his brother (pure fluff, I promise, with just the right amount of angst)

    Summary

    “Nice work today, fall guy!”

    As he passed, Tom leant down and smacked the guy's ass hard enough to make him stumble, grinning to himself at his own endless skill to get on Colt’s nerves. He ducked around Colt and made to keep on walking, expecting the typical grumble and snarky comment from behind him.

    Except there wasn’t a grumble, though - instead, Colt Seavers fucking squeaked.

     

    Or - Tom Ryder doesn't know Colt has a twin.

    Summary

    “Is it okay if I touch you?” the man breathes.

    Simon doesn't know why he asks. No, it's not okay. None of this is okay.

    “Please,” he continues when Simon doesn't respond. “I-I need permission.”

    Simon closes his eyes. It's his own type of silent defiance. If this man isn't just fucking with him – if he does, for some strange reason, feel bad or guilty about capturing him, then good. Let him drown in it.

    Simon is captured by a compulsive liar who, bafflingly, gives him food, smiles at him, and pretends the Quiet Rapture never happened.

    Grace saves the life of a violent human who seems to be under the terrifying delusion that every star and planet has disappeared without a trace.

    Summary

    Yao Li-Jie is having a weird day. He has a snarky Engineer to deal with, he's the last one on the 'first-contact' train, and the amnesiac, clumsy, socially inept scientist who holds the fate of the word in his hands now comes Buy-one-get-one with a codependent, possessive rock alien with a lack of boundaries. Just great.

    Summary

    "Grace stay with Rocky forever, question?"

    Uh—well, not really, I want to say, maybe my forever. Like a family pet—here for a portion of Rocky's life and gone in the next. Except there's no human humane society for Rocky to get a new me from. Not unless the science Eridians can make an interstellar highway to Earth. That'd be neat.

    But that's if there even is an Earth by then. For all I know George and Ringo ran out of fuel prematurely and are suspended in the middle of space, two ugly alien objects that nobody will know hold what could have saved an entire planet from another ice age.

    That'd suck. Both for humanity and Rocky. Then I'd really be irreplaceable.

    Grace forgets to tell Rocky about the average human lifespan. It comes up again on their flight to Erid.

    Summary

    Missing scene from the book of Rocky finding out how old Grace is, from Rocky’s perspective.

    Grace has mentioned that he is a scientist as well as a teacher to human children. On Erid, only our Elders would step down from their purpose to impart their knowledge on the next generation. Grace must be very old indeed to become a teacher, and to be chosen for this mission.

    Summary

    “Talk.”

    There’s a hitch of breath on the other end before Colt manages to speak.

    “I know you only said to contact you when there’s an emergency, but I think this really, really counts for one, man... there was an explosion near the site where Ryland was working. It happened yesterday. It’s all over the news. I came to his apartment and it’s… Court, it’s wiped. Everything’s gone. I’ve been trying to call him, but he’s unreachable.

    I have a really, really bad feeling. I didn’t know what to do.”

    or

    Ryland Grace, youngest sibling of Colton and Courtland Gentry Grace, has gone MIA after a lab explosion. His older brother finds out.

    Summary

    My pride stings a little at being so underestimated by a species that couldn’t even outrun a particularly determined turtle if their life depended on it. Look, I’m no Sha’Carri Richardson, but I’m pretty proud of my seven-minute mile. I worked hard for it. I haven’t been able to handle myself like this since I was... well, since I left Earth.

    “Y’know what? Let’s settle this once and for all. I could use an endurance test anyway. Good for my cardio.”

    Dr. Bones perks up. “You’ll do a demonstration?”

    “Absolutely. Give me two rest days and a warmup, then I’ll show you what the average human athlete can do.”

    -----

    AKA, Grace doesn't consider himself much of an athlete, but he's no slouch either. And he's got the physical prowess of his whole species to represent!

    The xenobiology team, on the other hand, is horrified to learn what a 'persistence hunter' is.
