Welcome To Awesome Creators Afterlife

This time of year can be frustrating for people in the aro/ace community.

I will be here, whenever you need to talk. 

transcription under the cut:

Oh, but had the artisan who made me created me instead – a worthy woman... ...I would say "how lucky am I"

Father in heaven who did miracles for our ancestors with fire and water... ...Who would then transform me from a man to woman? Were I only to have merited this being so graced by goodness...

What shall I say? why cry or be bitter? If my father in heaven has decreed upon me and has maimed me with an immutable deformity then I do not wish to remove it. the sorrow of the impossible is a human pain that nothing will cure and for which no comfort can be found. So, I will bear and suffer until I die and wither in the ground. Since I have learned from our tradition that we bless both, the good and the bitter I will bless in a voice hushed and weak: blessed are you [HaShem] who has not made me a woman.

Fic title: Holy Decent

Summary: unnatural breathing (explanation in a sec)

Simon was found in space in the SM-13. Inside the submersible was a tree, its small (compared to normal trees) but goes from the floor of the sub to the ceiling, branches holding onto the roof to keep it upright and secure, while the roots borrowed into the floor and subfloor.

Grace pulls Simon out of the tree (by accident, he didn't know Simon was in there, happy accident) but can tell this man isn't exactly human anymore. There are teeth on his cheeks/jaw, he's missing an arm but where the injury is there's tendrils, as if the tree was trying to burrow into him (ow)

When Simon finally adjusts to life on the Hail Mary (takes a while cause thay man is an abused dog of a man), he finds comfort in the grow room. He talks to the plants (Eden habit), and when Grace isn't looking he'll give the plants his blood (again, Eden habit)

The plants start growing faster. They also look more wild in nature. They also take on a more red tint

Maybe thats a space thing? Grace hasn't grown plants in space, hes a microbiologist, not a botanist!

And the ship seems to have more oxygen recently. These little plants must be pulling more carbon to compensate for...something.

Simon meanwhile has been starting to sleep with the plants. He feels out of place anywhere else on the ship. He's not a scientist so, even when Grace does his best to teach, Simon has no clue what he's talking about.

He's not an engineer, he can't create things using mystery element. Simon doesn't build...he only destroys.

I think this ship (spaceship) is really funny
