Summary
When Grace gets seemingly teleported by means unknown into the SM-13 right as it was nearing The Light, both Simon and Grace have no idea what is happening. Grace knows he was supposed to be in his house on Erid, Simon knows this new guy cannot possibly be a hallucination, and Ava, upon hearing Grace ramble about theories for how he got there, knows that new guy is Smart. Could-Secure-Our-Survival Smart.
She orders Simon to bring Grace back to the surface, and thus begins Grace's ordeal in a starless universe. -

Summary
To say that Ryland Grace and Simon of Eden get off on the wrong foot would be the understatement of the century.
Being rescued didn’t miraculously solve all of Simon’s problems. He has a lot to adjust to. Being a fresh amputee, the stars not being dead, aliens being real, living on an alien planet, having a human neighbor who doesn't want to kill him, trusting in this so-called “reality” that’s too good to be true… yeah, no, making friends isn’t a priority. Exiting survival mode is easier said than done. He barely even knows who he is when he’s not fighting tooth and nail.
Grace is doing his best not to get attached to the handsome stranger he helped save. Simon may choose to leave Erid once he’s healed. He’s not so desperate for human company that he’d pursue someone who attacked him in their first-ever interaction. He has a good life here on Erid; he totally doesn’t dream of holding another human being’s hand, or being looked at fondly by someone with eyes, or seeing another person’s smile. He has Rocky and Adrian, who are more than enough family for him.
But who does Simon have, if not Grace?

“Grace. What are you testing, question?”
Rocky. I can’t put this all on the guy right now. He should be happy. We are going to Erid. We are going to save his planet.
“CBC. A complete blood count.” I answer, hoping he doesn’t ask me why.
“Purpose, question?”
Rocky, please. I’m trying to spare you right now.
Basically, Grace gets exposed to a dangerous amount of radiation during an EVA and doesn't want to tell Rocky bc of what happened to Rocky's crew <3
THIS IS A REWORKED VERSION OF "TEMPEST" - after some comments, I wanted to keep the soul of the story, but make it more scientifically plausible. While there are still probably some inaccuracies, I still hope this isn't as messy as before.

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.
