I can't take it anymore, I'm writing my own bloodmary fic. Here's the outline:
Grace and Rocky find the sub floating in space around Tau Ceti.
Open up: Armless traumatized Simon inside, very not conscious.
Take him in, hook him up to Armondo- shit he's so irritated, Rocky, don't touch him.
Six days, still unconscious, Grace is restless, Rocky is worried about the radiation.
Wake up, Rocky is sleeping, Grace is sitting next to his sick bed reading or some shit.
βOh, hey, you're finally awake.β - Grace.
The moment he wakes up he's on his feet and choking out Grace a little. βWHERE THE FUCKING HELL AM I IN THIS GODDAMN SHITHOLE OF A UNIVERSE!?!?β - Simon.
Calm him down, explain everything, Grace suspects a wormhole or some shit.
Simon tries really hard not to cry now that he knows he's never getting the box back to the COI.
Rocky wakes up, Simon's not irritated anymore, amaze.
βYo wtf is that omfg.β - Simon.
βI'm just a silly Rocky guy, you xenophobic bitch.β - Rocky.
Explain the mission to Adrian, explain that the stars are dying (not dead) and there's a chance to save them.
Simon becomes the new EVA guy, Grace continues to shitilly pilot.
Go forward with the plan, all the Adrian shit happens.
Simon is knocked unconscious (again), Grace is dying, Rocky sacrifices himself, Simon wakes up, helps Rocky into his xenonite stuff.
Grace wakes up, cries over Rocky, Simon comforts him without really knowing why.
Rocky wakes up, celebrates, Rocky thanks Simon for saving him.
Discover Taumeuba (yeah that's spelled wrong idc), party a little.
Part ways with Simon and Grace going together to Earth.
Taumeuba leek, Simon doesn't know how to react, Grace is panicking when he realizes Rocky's gonna die.
Simon urges Grace to take them to save him, Grace is confused.
βWe picked you up from a drifting sub, you went through so much with and without us, why don't you want to go home with me?β - Grace.
βI don't need the trees, I need you, and for you to be happy. Rocky is your best friend, and his entire planet is going to die if we don't go. He needs you, and you need Him.β - Simon.
They go get Rocky, very heartwarming, very happy, Grace and Simon kiss a little, Rocky is confused at first but ends up fucking loving it.
Grace and Rocky and Simon living together, Grace x Simon are a proper couple, they got the Eridian-wedding-band-engraving-things in their arms, Simon is regularly seeing an Eridian therapist that Grace nicknamed Jasper due to the supposed healing powers.
Grace and Simon spend lots of time with Rocky and Adrianβs pebbles, babysitting and teaching them human stuff, Simon loves the ocean now, previously hated it.
Conclusion with Grace and Simon choosing to stay on Erid even after being offered a refueled Hail Mary, Grace goes to school, Simon watches him go lovingly from the beach side.
I hope everyone enjoys this very much when I finally actually make it in four years.
