Fics like An Everlasting Itch For Things Remote

“Is the alien…dangerous?” he asks slowly. “No! No, no he’s my friend, he’s - uh, well, the engineer of the Hail Mary,” says Grace. “Look, I’m just saying that - he’s gonna wake up soon, and we don’t need to tell him about how our first meeting went. We can gloss over the whole ‘tackle me to the ground and scare the daylights out of me’ thing. I won’t tell if you won’t.” Simon is 90% sure this is going to come back to bite him in the form of blackmail but he nods anyways, because it sure as hell sounds like Grace is implying Simon will be allowed to stay a while longer. Rocky sleeps through the absolute shitshow that is Simon and Grace’s first meeting. It’s probably for the best. Despite it all, it will be the start of beautiful friendship.
