Post-Reveal domestic fluff?

First fanfic, sorta nervous! I couldn't find enough Ryland Grace agere content so i decided to make it :]

Grace had been on this stupid ship for far to long. I mean, sure, the "don't go crazy room" helped and all but the lack of privacy is going to make him loose his mind. Don't get me wrong, he loves Rocky and Simon but come on, A space rock that can see everything and a space convict that is convinced Ryland was his savoir? It gave him no freetime or privacy Not to mention all the big feelings bubbling up and the stress and how much he needed to be tiny... Ok maybe not that. He could do this, it's only a few more months before they get to Erid and he will get more space to run around, I mean, he could last a little longer, right? Oh boy this was going to be a long trip... Currently it was sleep time, at least that's what Grace should be doing right now. Then again, when have things ever been easy for grace to do? Currently he was just glad rocky was trying to convince Simon to go to bed so he got to be alone for a little while. Ryland layed back with his hands on his face and groaned, running his hands down his face. Why was he so stressed right now? Recently things had been going smoothly so why was he so agitated and snappy and upset recently?Ryland sighed, flipping into his side as he heard the rolling of Rocky's ball and Simon's footsteps. He then heard rocky chirp

"Grace asleep, question? Rocky told Grace no sleep without watch. Bad Grace die die die!" Grace sighed

"No rock, I'm not asleep" he mubbledz realizing he sounded snappier then normal.

"Why grace upset, question?' Rocky chirped up again, ryland turned over to face him

"Not upset, just tired." Simon nodded, going over to his own bunk, laying down. Rocky chirped up

"Grace and Grace friend need more sleep staement! always so sleepy." Grace sighed

"I know rock" he said, curling back into his quilt. After about 30 minutes he managed to fall asleep.

*The colors on the page under his hands were bright, it smelled like crayons, milk, and cheese puffs. Ryland giggled a little as the fox on the screen nose dived into the snow. He felt the comforting weight of his favorite paci in his mouth. The crayons felt big in his hands, he was coloring a picture of a unicorn dog. Ryland giggled at that, "puppies don't have horns! That's silly! I'm sure Mama will like it though!" He thought to himself, coloring the horn rainbow colors*

Ryland sat up with a gasp. What was that. Rocky quickly came rolling over to his bedside

"Grace ok, question? Grace hearts pump loud loud loud" He chirped, seeming confused. Rylands eyes darted over to rocky. He felt like he was going to cry. Words were so far away and hard right now! He didn't wanna use them but he had to because he was a big boy!

"M fine, rock..." Grace manged to mumble out, voice slurred and babyish and stuffy. Oh no he was already crying. *No no no! He had to be big!* Ryland tried to wipe away the tears and failed, ending up buring his face into the quilt.

"Grace not fine! Grace leaky space blob!" Rocky chirped, bumping the side of graces cot. Grace was upset, why wouldn't he just leave him alone! He didn't need more embarrassment. Grace hid his face in the quilt, whining under his breath *"woah were did that come from? Doesn't matter anyways..."* He thought to himself.

While grace was trying to hide from the world, well, space, he heard Simon stir awake, looking over at Rylan. He paused for a minute at the sight in front of him, not sure what to do at seeing his savior sobbing into a quilt and rocky bumping his bedside.After a moment he finally spoke up

"Ryland? You feeling ok?" Grace shook his head no, overwhelmed and now for sure regressed which made him more upset. Simon nodded, thinking again before an idea suddenly popped into his head

"Hey ry, wanna go watch the beach?" He finally asked, he knew that tended to calm Grace down when he was overwhelmed or upset. Ryland paused for a second before sniffling and nodding, getting up with his quilt wrapped around him like a cape. Simon quickly followed, standing with him and walking with Ryland and Rocky to the "don't go crazy room" When they got there rocky was the one to turn on the video of the beach because it didn't seem like grace was gonna talk right now and Simon didn't really have all the controls to Mary down yet.

Ryland plopped down onto the floor, doing grabby hands at Simon and Rocky, Simon sat down next to him and rocky rolled into graces side. Grace giggled at that like a little kid and smiled a bit wider, Simon huffed out a laugh. He would have to ask Ryland about this later.

Will simply realized in that moment that Mike is not heterosexual/normal. He is like "me," so Will.
