   Summary

   The Hail Mary has been housing three for some time. The dinner situation is not going very well.

   Rocky can get along fine on Eridian food, and due to his mutations, Simon can too.

   It's Grace's lack of Earth rations that are the problem.

    

   OR

    

   Simon and Rocky have to watch as their saving Grace starves in front of them.

   Summary

   So Ryland Grace will love Simon until the day he dies.

   And Ryland Grace will love Simon in the next life, and the one after that, and all the ones after that.

   And Ryland Grace will sit on an empty shore of a dead sea under a forgotten moon and watch Simon live a long, full life; loved and safe and happy and free, trails of ice crystals and moondust left in his wake as he chases the light of thousands of shining stars.

   --

   Three times Ryland Grace thought he was in love, and the one time when it was true.

   Summary

   Merlin can't always use magic to protect Arthur and Camelot, so throughout Merlin's decade spent by Arthur's side, the knights of Camelot teach Merlin a thing or two about holding his own.

   Or, 5 times a background knight teaches Merlin a different fighting skill, and the 1 time Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table find out (in the coolest way possible, of course).
