Summary
Grace forgets that most humans don't speak in a mish-mash of English and Eridian and Simon has a slightly different misunderstanding than the main one I've seen.

Summary
"Many stages in Eridian reproductive process. Rocky Adrian laying cycles finally sync up recently. So, Rocky Adrian think finally time for eggs. Adrian lay five eggs, very good. Only, strange thing happen. Rocky only lay one egg."
“Oh,” I say. “That’s unusual, right?”
"Very," Rocky hums.
My throat tightens. "Does that mean there's something wrong? Are you sick?"
Rocky makes a gesture I usually interpret as "not exactly". "Not sick," he says. "But doctors still worry. When Eridian start to make fewer eggs, this usually means laying period of life is over soon. Rocky very young for this. Rocky supposed to be in ideal time of life for laying. Rocky younger than Adrian, even." He shifts on three of his feet. Already, my mind is racing ahead, wondering -- "Doctors told Rocky to ask Grace, is this radiation side effect, question?"

Summary
She's been staring at the footage for over an hour today, the chase playing on a loop as it had in the days since it happened, Grace's bright yellow jacket a beacon in the blurs of gray buildings, black coats, and dull green grass. She stares at it for so long that it becomes the only thing she sees in her dreams anymore.
PHM_GRACE_RYLAND_9.13.23
She meant to delete it. She meant to put it behind her and focus on the mission, focus on the Astrophage, focus on putting her betrayal so far back in her mind that she could continue living with her choices.
The videos are archived onto the Hail Mary instead.
Eva Stratt will never know.
OR Stratt uploaded the cctv footage of Grace running for his life and Simon finds it, forcing Grace to face that dark spot in his memory

Short Circuit (5+1 times) by Lex_To-Be-Kind-Takes-Work (Seth_Silver_Ink)

Summary
“It’ll work better if you insulate that wire and connect it to the bolt of this gear,” Simon leans in closer as he speaks, pointing to what he’s talking about, his breath hitting the shell of Grace’s ear with each word. “It’ll keep it from short circuiting.” The ghost of contact never made makes Grace want to writhe in his seat, maybe even dare to reach o-
“Ri-” Grace’s voice cracks embarrassingly high before he clears his throat, “right, thank you so much, I will get right on that.”——
Or 5 times Grace short circuits plus one time that… He still short circuits.
So more accurately 5 times Simon unintentionally short circuits Grace, plus one time he intentionally short circuits Grace.Bookmarked by Crying__Mess

Summary
Relatively speaking, Grace and Rocky are both somewhat unusual. It brings them closer together.
Or: FtM Ryland Grace explains social constructivism to his genderless alien buddy (badly), Rocky decides he wants to be less genderless actually, and Grace and Rocky love each other in every universe.

Summary
He turns his gaze back to Merlin, face tight as if braced for battle. “What did she do to you?” He asks.
Of course he does.
And Merlin tells him. He doesn’t want to, but he doesn’t try to resist either. He submits to the power within him, urging him to go ahead, ruin all that he holds dear with a simple truth.
“She gave me a truth potion.”
Or: Merlin is under a truth spell, but Arthur lets him keep his secrets.

Summary
Arthur had always been good, he had been responsible, there were no broken hearts or bastard children running around the citadel because of him. He didn’t deserve this. It wasn’t fair. It wasn’t fair that he was going to spend the rest of his life being a perfect gentleman and boiling alive in his own misery. It wasn’t fair that this hole in his heart was only going to get deeper and wider with every day that passed. It wasn’t fair that he couldn’t just be somebody else, even just for a moment, somebody whose life wasn’t drenched in the constant uncertainty of never knowing if people were being honest with him, or just trying to keep him pleased. It wasn’t fair that Merlin didn’t love him.

Summary
“I’m yours,” Arthur spoke without thinking, overcome with piety and ardor.
“Arthur-”
“I’m yours to use as you see fit. My allegiance is to you.” He pressed his closed fist tighter to his chest in feeling.
Merlin flushed under the dust on his face. His voice was strained. “Get up, you look ridiculous down there.”
Arthur shook his head and bowed even deeper. If he’d worn a crown, it would’ve fallen at Merlin’s feet. That would have been exactly where he wanted it.Bookmarked by Crying__Mess

Everything was different after that.

Jon knew Damian better than anybody.
He knew his heartbeat, the rate of his breaths, all of his tiny micro-expressions he thought he knew how to hide. Jon spent most of his time with Damian. It was impossible for Jon to not know everything that was going on with him.
It was impossible for Jon to not know Damian liked him.

Summary
Another kingdom’s visit to Camelot starts off well enough, but quickly devolves when all the women in the castle begin falling head over heels for Arthur. At first, it seems to only affect the ladies from the visiting party, but soon even Gwen can’t stop talking about Arthur’s pretty blond hair as she tries to bombard him with flowers at every training match. Merlin hasn’t any reason to worry—except that he does, because all three of his secrets have the potential to be unraveled in one fell swoop.

Merlin’s days and evenings blur together into one long, overheated, mess. He is tired.
Which is why it is perfectly understandable that he got confused.

Summary
The next time Arthur doesn’t say thank you, Gwaine puts his hand on Merlin’s back, stroking down the long length of it, from the short curls of hair at the nape of his neck to the neat cinch of his waist.
“Thanks,” he praises, throwing a wink to an agape Arthur as he does. It’s wonderful.
So wonderful, in fact, that for the next fortnight, for every brusque word that spills from Arthur’s lips, Gwaine spills three sweet ones.
