Summary
When Jim joined the on campus Radio Club, he hadn't thought much of it. He'd tinkered with the radio in his dad's shed as a kid, before Frank had come and Mom had left. It brought back the happy memories. He didn't expect it to change the world.
Note: Chapter Nine is Tarsus IV, and it is as disturbing as that implies. Please read that chapter with caution or skip over it completely. Summary is in author's notes.

Summary
American University AU. A Study in Scarlet. The beginning. Whatever you want to call it. John just wanted to get though med school without incident, and find a way to keep his cane from digging into his palm. He didn't count on the university over-booking his dorm room and needing to find a place to stay while they got it sorted out. He definitely didn't count on running into Mike Stamford, who he hadn't seen in over eight years. And if he hadn't counted on Mike, then he most decidedly didn't count on the man Mike introduced him to.

Deep Space Nine by WhiskeyTFoxtrot

Summary
They were referred to as the Deep Space Nine simply because that was where they spent most of their time. Not quite Starfleet, not quite civilian, all outcasts among their own, they were a team of researchers whose mission was to explore new worlds and send the collected data back to Starfleet and any other interested group. They were a ragtag group of explorers- nine in all- and when they got wind of the distress call from Vulan and the subsequent lightning storm in space, they turned around and warped back towards the desert planet as fast as their ship would let them. They were Scientists, researchers, but that did not mean that they were defenseless. And the nine of them were determined to help, however they could.

Summary
It was when he was in College that Arthur really started to remember. He’d always had the dreams, dreams of knights and red capes and dark hair and blue eyes shining gold, but it took him years to finally understand, to understand what it all meant. But when he did, oh when he did, shortly after his 20th birthday, he’d awoken with a cry to the silence of his dorm room, a name, his name on his lips, he finally knew.

Summary
“Is the alien…dangerous?” he asks slowly.
“No! No, no he’s my friend, he’s - uh, well, the engineer of the Hail Mary,” says Grace. “Look, I’m just saying that - he’s gonna wake up soon, and we don’t need to tell him about how our first meeting went. We can gloss over the whole ‘tackle me to the ground and scare the daylights out of me’ thing. I won’t tell if you won’t.”
Simon is 90% sure this is going to come back to bite him in the form of blackmail but he nods anyways, because it sure as hell sounds like Grace is implying Simon will be allowed to stay a while longer.
Rocky sleeps through the absolute shitshow that is Simon and Grace’s first meeting. It’s probably for the best.
Despite it all, it will be the start of beautiful friendship.- Language:

Bookmarker's Notes
“I can’t,” Simon admits. “I can’t imagine not loving you.”
This is, somehow, the wrong thing to say, because Grace’s expression crumbles.
“I - I’m sorry,” Simon says, half a plea. He’s not sure what he did wrong, but clearly Grace doesn’t want him to feel that way so - “It’s not like I expect you to love me back.”
“I do love you back, just probably not the way you want,” Grace says. “I am not in love with you. I won’t ever be. I love you the same as I love Rocky, I love you with my whole heart but that’s not-” he lets out a bitter little laugh. “That’s not enough.”
The same as I love Rocky.
Simon feels like he’s been whacked upside the head.
“Grace, what the hell are you talking about?”
Grace blinks at him in shock.
“You love me as much as you love Rocky?”
“Y-yeah.”
“The guy you tried to die for. The guy who called you his soulmate. That Rocky.”
“Yeah?”
“And you think that’s not enough.”
“Well, people want - kissing and sex and stuff that I just can’t give -”
“Are we gonna stop sharing a bed?”
“No!”
“...are we gonna live together on Erid?”
“Unless you say otherwise, yes.”
“And you love me.”
Grace sighs. “Yeah. Yeah, I - I love you, Simon.”
He feels a little dazed. He feels drunk on it. “Yeah, Grace, I’m gonna be honest, I don’t really give a shit about the rest.”
“Oh.” Grace stares at him. He stares back.
Suddenly he has an armful of Grace clinging to him like an octopus, squeezing him tight.
“Are you crying again?” Simon asks, letting a huff of laughter that was unbearably fond.
“...No,” Grace mumbles, voice distinctly wet.
Simon holds him tighter.

Summary
For three hours, he’s at the beach, takes off his socks and hikes Ilyukhina’s dress up, and stands in the water. He left the cane on the shore; it hurts to let his frame bear the brunt of gravity unsupported. The reliable tide, just cool enough to chill him a little, laps at his shins.
He closes his eyes and tries to forget about himself, the familiar ache in his joints and spine. Allows himself to imagine something else.
A different truth, a hypothetical, a thought exercise.
Rocky can't bear to lose Grace. But he can bear to watch Grace wither away from a sickness easily cured by Earth medicine even less.
Grace has to make another choice.
Or: After thirteen years on Erid, Grace leaves his true home for Earth. Eva Stratt lives to see him return. Earth takes note of the changes.

Chasing Dragons by The_Sinking_Ship for Ladderofyears

Summary
Draco can think of only one way to outclass his pleat-front-khaki-wearing politician ex, and that’s by making headlines with an obvious upgrade. And who better to upstage the cheating bastard than the Saviour of the World, Harry Potter himself? Sure, Potter is a little rough around the edges in ripped jeans, a rumpled tartan shirt, and a permanent scowl. Draco reckons a haircut and a shave wouldn’t hurt, either. But Potter is also in need of a Healer willing to keep his secrets, and Draco is just the man for the job. It’s a perfectly reasonable exchange. They need only attend a couple parties arm-in-arm, smile nicely for the paparazzi, and tolerate each other long enough to convince everyone they’re smitten. In return, Draco will keep Potter alive and in one piece.
But it isn’t long before Draco realises he might be in over his head, because Potter is ten tonnes of trouble packed into a leather jacket, and seems keen on hurtling himself towards death on the back of a flying motorbike. And that says nothing of Potter’s penchant for fire-breathing beasts and things that bite.
Ah well, at least they’ll have some fun while it lasts. After all, Draco always did like a bit of danger.

Summary
Draco Malfoy doesn’t believe in healing. Not really. He believes in muscle memory, in silence, in doing his job until there’s nothing left of him to do it.
By night, he works the trauma ward at St. Mungo’s—lead senior resident, spell-slinger, ghost in white robes. By day, he studies medicine in a Muggle university across town, feeding some unnamed, bottomless guilt. He has no weekends. No friends outside the ER. No one who asks if he’s okay.
Then Harry Potter starts showing up again.
Bleeding. Smiling. Bleeding more.It’s always the ER. It’s always Draco who fixes him.
The staff call it routine. Draco knows better. This is how things start breaking.And maybe, if he’s not careful—how things might finally begin to mend.
