    Summary

    Simon looks older. Quieter. More cautious.

    Grace is sure Simon sees the same. Two sides of the same coin, two men both touched by the passage of time and circumstance.

    _____

    Thanks to Rocky and Adrian, Ryland Grace is suddenly thrown into lab work for the first time in years. His Summer break is now filled with petri dishes, poor notetaking practices, and Adrian's engineering coworker wiggling his way back into Grace's heart after destroying it twelve years ago.

    Simon Fischer has made peace with his existence. He has his cat, a small house, and his garden. It's more than he deserves after the monstrous accident his work as a combat engineer caused. But, something about seeing Ryland Grace's smile has Simon hoping for more.

    Memories old and new swirl between the two men. What happened all those years ago? Can they try again?

    You know what they say: third time's the charm.

    The College!AU into Coworkers/Slice of Life fic that no one asked for.

    Summary

    There was something to be said about how sad it was to be in your thirties, single, and spending your Friday nights talking to a stranger on the internet that you paid for naked videos of themselves.

    But Ryland Grace was in far too deep to care.


    There was something to be said about how sad it was to be a convicted felon, single, and spending your Friday nights making content for strangers on the internet who paid to see you naked.

    But Simon Edenson had nothing left to lose.

    Summary

    In which two deeply damaged people try, badly, to offer each other olive branches without mistaking them for weapons--or turning it into a sex thing.

    Summary

    Grace is pushing forty, still working the same old job as a biology teacher at a private San Francisco high school. His life is pretty unassuming. Mundane at best.
    At least until he meets his new coworker Simon, the twenty-something PE teacher who is hellbent on seducing him.
    Not that Grace would need much persuading. Only, he's a bit too oblivious.

    Grace shouldn’t have come here again.
    It’s a horrible idea. The worst one, really.
    But if it is so wrong, why does the thought of it have to feel so good?
    Simon leans against the cold, white tile of the teacher showers.
    “You can’t seriously stand there and tell me you’ve never even thought about it,” Simon mutters, resting his head on the wall, damp hair falling onto his face.
    Grace gulps, hard. He should leave. Turn back and pretend none of this ever happened. That would be for the best.
    But he doesn’t.
    “I have,” he nods. His lust clouds his judgement, and he speaks without contemplating it first. “I’m thinking of it right now, actually.”
    Simon smirks.
    “And are you gonna do something about that, Mr. Grace?”
