    Summary

    After how poorly their first attempt at gaining samples from Tau Ceti E went, Doctor Ryland Grace has very little hope of pulling anything from the murky surface a second time around- Certainly not a blood-filled, poorly cobbled together submarine that then proceeds to slam into the Hail Mary at full speed and compromise the hull.
    And definitely not one containing a living human being.

    Well... as loosely as you can use the word living, or human, for that matter. He wonders just how far that line blurs out here in this wild expanse of space- all while a single silver-ringed iris lights up the darkened medical bay.

    Summary

    Between Grace's scant first aid and the nanny bot they managed to get the man mostly stable, tucked into Grace's bed and completely dead to the world for the past few days.

    It's the same man currently trying to kill him.
     

    or, the Eridians find a man covered in blood and Grace hasn't been able to care for something in far too long.

    Summary

    “Hello?”

    She whirls around on her knees, gasping as she looks up at the most handsome face she’s ever seen. He’s tall and broad-shouldered, red on his breast like a robin, his eyes the prettiest blue, wide and staring at her.

    He seems just as struck by her as she is by him. Her cheeks color, flushing under his scrutiny where she is on her knees. She tries to right herself, but finds that her knees are unsteady, her ankles weak. She stumbles and he reaches forward to catch her, his strong arms wrapping around her without thought.

    He’s warm and so large, he’s perfect. The machine flashes with joy inside her skull, urging her onward, filling her with the urge to touch him, to press close, to soothe his aches and reward his bravery for finding her.

    She stares up into his eyes, smiles so brightly, and puts her hand upon his chest. His heart is racing too, at the same pace as hers. “There you are, Darling,” she murmurs, and cups his cheek. “What took you so long?”
