Been a lack of baby Grace. I propose regressor!grace who is easily startled and doesn't like being approached by a person he cant see and hates being chased due to the unfortunate way he was forced onto the ship. Also got a massive bonus fear of needles now. With cg! Simon who needs to approach little grace kind of how newbie riders approach a horse

THANK YOU ANON!!! I’m so glad someone else likes skittish baby Grace!!!
Simon knows Grace’s trauma very much so carries over into his regression; when he’s not being his regular bubbly self, he’s incredibly jumpy and panicky. When Simon accidentally walks too quietly around the ship and spooks Grace, the poor boy bolts and hides in the lab, quietly crying until he eventually just passes out and Simon sits and waits for him to wake up. He doesn’t move him, he doesn’t touch him, he just waits.
Rocky is terrified when he sees Grace just sleeping on the floor, but Simon is quick to assure him he’s okay and that he just needs time. When Grace does finally wake up from his nap, he’s thankful that Simon stayed put and didn’t move or touch him, and once Simon’s sure he’s alright, Grace goes right back to playing.
