    Summary

    “Mr. Grace?” Ryland shakes his head and remembers he’s behind his desk, dress shirt unbuttoned at the collar, tie undone completely and resting on his backpack. 

    “Depends,” he responds. “Are you the government or one of my students’ parents?”

    “Both,” comes the answer. Grace’s eyes focus on his visitor. Beautiful, dark brown eyes. Tall, with broad shoulders. Long, black suit jacket with a white button-down and black and gray striped tie. Black suit pants. Short dark hair, buzzed close to his skull. Ear piece in one ear. Dark brown skin and nicely manicured fingers. Grace smiles to himself. He likes his view. His visitor smirks at him slightly, knowingly, but doesn’t say anything. He waits for Grace to collect himself.

    OR
    Grace and Carl's developing relationship through a series of flashbacks, catching up to when Grace returns to Earth.

    Summary

    I don't want to die! Don't send me off to die! Please!
    The voice is faint, yet unmistakable. Sam, half asleep in the passenger seat of the Impala, jerks fully awake as a headache lances through his skull.
    "Sammy? You alright?" Dean glances towards him, a flicker of concern evident in his voice.
    "Yeah, I jus-" Carl, I can't do it. No! Don't do it! Ryland... his twin's voice is grating through his brain, dragging pins and needles with it. There's a flash of a yellow raincoat, men in soldier's uniforms, a fence, and his brother face-down in the grass.

    Then it's over.

    "Sammy?"

    "I think Ry's in trouble."

    Summary

    Colt thought he was stopping by to annoy his twin brother at work.

    He did not expect to discover that Ryland Grace is actually a really good teacher. He definitely did not expect to become part of an seventh-grade physics lesson about momentum, impact, and why bodies need more time to survive a fall.

    Summary

    This series follows the many adventures of Toni Stark.

    The Limitations of Wax is the main and still ongoing story in the series.

    The other stories in the series are AU's and what-if scenarios that can be read in any order and have little to no impact on the main storyline.

    I advise that you start with LoW and then move from there, reading what AUs intrigue you as you go.

    Summary

    Peter knew he was smart. Smart enough to fool the government, smart enough to fool the world into believing Spider-Man was older than he actually was.

    And he figured, as he heard the telltale sound of rocket boots and pounding feet against concrete, that he might be just smart enough to fool the Avengers.

    ~~~

    When Peter became an orphan (for the second time), he knew that he couldn't go into the foster care system. Not if he wanted to keep his little spider secret a, well, secret

    That's when he created his greatest invention yet...Edward Parker, his totally 100% real uncle that has somehow become the Avenger's prime suspect on Spider-Man's identity

    Surely, Peter was smart enough to fool some of the world's smartest people while hiding his secret identity twice over...

    Right?

    Summary

    Fics & ficlets I’ve had running through my head and want to put out in the ether. Mostly Matt whump with a little silliness down the road (esp as I drift more into Avengers crossovers).

    Mostly stand-alone, though others in the series can add context for character interactions as that builds. But think of it more as snapshots over time instead of a continuous narrative.

    Current theory is that it's how I process my own sensitive senses and chronic pain. But I'm at the point I keep cycling these in my head, re-editing them, and it's becoming a problem for focus and sleep. I'm hoping that getting them out of my head will help me stop #@!&ing thinking about them finally.

    I feel like I’ve read just about every DD fanfic on this site at this point, and I'm sometimes unsure if my ideas are actually original versus just an amalgamation of all I’ve read Frankensteined together. To that effect, if you notice something is super similar to something else you've read, then my brain probably looped it in to my own story, so please let me know in the comments so I can take a look to see if I remember it, then credit it under 'remix/inspired by' accordingly.

    Summary

    Ryland Grace is a middle school science teacher who has, by your reasonable estimate, never once clocked a flirtation in his entire life. He explains photosynthesis by analogy. He bikes to school. He wears science pun t-shirts.

    You have been winding him up for eight months. You have been doing it for the love of the game. You have been getting away with everything. Then he figures it out.

    And it turns out he is significantly better at handling a brat than you had budgeted for.

    Summary

    Eridians. I come in peace from Planet Earth, the homeworld of Doctor Ryland Grace. We wish to learn more about your people. Can you hear me?

    She scanned every dial, output, and monitor for any sign of anything at all.

    Nada. Again.

    She sighed heavily. Maybe they were all dead down there. She’d hoped not.

    “I, uh, hey, earthling. Fellow earthling. This is Doctor Ryland Grace. We hear– uh, we copy. Um. Sup?”

    Sup?! SUP?! Years without any human contact, and this guy’s first message is sup? The dead speak, and they are not fucking serious whatsoever.

    ---

    After the success of the Hail Mary mission, Earth sends a foul-mouthed astro-anthropologist to study Erid. She discovers a very-much-still-alive Ryland Grace. Slow burn mutual pining ensues. Will eventually be explicit, but... did I mention the slow burn?

    Summary

    "It’s not that bad..."

    "Jesper there are chemical burns on my legs."

    "In small amounts! You wiped your hands on your pants right? They seemed to have gotten most of the damage.”

    "There is fabric melted into my skin.”

    "Okay so yeah it is that bad." He frowned, his hand ghosting over Wylan’s skin like he was terrified to hurt him even more. "We’re going to need to find a healer Wy.” Jesper mumbled.

    Or, Wylan plans an experiment. It goes wrong. This is the aftermath.

    Summary

    She wasn’t supposed to be here.

    At first, it’s easy to believe it’s nothing, just a strange coincidence that she’s ended up in a world where Ryland Grace exists. He’s just a person, just a teacher, just someone she wasn’t meant to know, and definitely not someone she was meant to grow close to.

    But then the world starts to change.

    As impossible events begin to unfold, she realises this isn’t just his world, it’s his story. And she knows exactly where it’s leading.

    She knows what’s coming. She knows what he’ll be asked to do. She knows what it will cost.

    And she can’t tell him any of it.

    So instead, she stays. She stands beside him as everything slowly falls apart, offering quiet reassurance he doesn’t quite understand, only a certainty she can never explain.

    “I just know.”

    Summary

    You ever see a fly endlessly bumping against a window so you open the window to let it out instead of just getting the swatter like usual. And it's all just on a whim?

    So, anyway, Simon somehow finds himself floating in space after screaming at a giant eye in an endless red void.

    Grace and Rocky are on the way to Erid when they come across an iron submarine with a dead eel monster hanging off the end.

    Simon gets to heal, Grace gets to interact with another human again, and Rocky gets to watch the incredibly awkward courtship rituals of these two disasters (affectionate).

    (AKA, it's my turn to play with the BloodyMary boys! :D )

    Summary

    This is the one where Obi-Wan is picked up by the Ohnaka Gang at Bandomeer and thinks, 'pirate or farmer, pirate or farmer, pirate or farmer... PIRATE!'

    And Obi-Wan still saves the galaxy. But naturally, Pirate King Hondo Ohnaka takes the credit.

    Summary

    Simon grit his teeth as he heard Adrian bust through the door and clatter through his living room.

    "SIMON. Simon! Need you to come with me."

    "Why, Adrian? I'm kinda busy."

    "Found new human for Simon! Must see."

    "You what."

    Summary

    “I-I’m sorry…I ne….” He frog-blinked a few times, his grip on the scalpel loosening briefly, then tightening again.

    “ I nee…d…to go h-h-ome…” The man leaned in closer, and Simon almost couldn’t handle those eyes. “I donn’t wanna hurt… youuuoo but I’m sorry I…need to find…” His balance was off, as if he didn’t notice that he was missing a leg.

    Simon swallowed. “...Your arm is bleeding.”

    (Or: Simon and Adrian find a bloodied and traumatized molecular biologist floating in deep space.)
    (The hard part is over, now it's time to heal.)

    Summary

    Lan Wangji is staring at him with shockingly alert eyes.

     

    “Ah. Burger Man,” he says stoically. Wei Wuxian has a really hard time telling if the man is serious or fucking with him. But given that he has never seen the man being anything other than serious, he assumes that he’s probably drunk.

     

    “Yeah, I’m the Burger Man. And you’re Lan Wangji. Do you normally spend your Friday nights sitting on the street like this?” he asks.

     

    Lan Wangji looks around, as if he had not been aware they were on a street in the middle of the city. Had he blacked out? How much had he drunk? Was he on any drugs? There was no real way for Wei Wuxian to know.

     

    “Do not,” Lan Wangji finally responds, frowning at the pavement like it’s its fault that he’s sitting on it.

     

    Or, Wei Wuxian is slightly obsessed with the Hot Customer at work. After running into him on a night out, and consequently figuring out he has a kid, he somehow talks himself into getting to babysit said kid. So what if he starts crushing on this man who is obviously taken? Wei Wuxian has everything under control.

    Summary

    “If it were possible, hypothetically, would Grace want to be an Eridian, question?”

    “Of course I would,” he flopped back down on the sand, leaning his weight on his hands that were now anchored in the sand behind him. “You know what, there's a movie where something like that happens. Guy goes to an alien planet and gets a new alien body. Pretty good, if I’m remembering it right. Only ever saw it once.”

    He never should've shown him that movie.

    -

    Grace has been on Erid for quite some time now, living life to the best of his ability from within the confines of the biodome Rocky and his team erected for him. Its been perfect, aside from the fact that Grace was on borrowed time and his body was beginning to protest every movement he made. So, with Grace's health beginning to degrade beyond repair and after he made the mistake of showing Rocky the movie, Avatar, Rocky starts a secret project that has the potential to change everything.
