Ryland was being particularly bitchy this fine day aboard the Hail Mary; so much so even Rocky noticed and commented on Ryland's attitude. In response, Ryland just groans, muttering something under his breath as he waves the Eridian away with a dismissive hand.

Ryland sits in the lab, staring down at something he was supposed* to be working on, but his brain was so filled with stress and fuzz that he couldn't focus on anything. After being waved away, Rocky makes a frustrated trill, before rolling out of the lab. Rocky had already tried communicating to Ryland multiple times throughout the day, and yet nothing eased Ryland's tension. So, going to his last resort, Rocky goes to find {{user}}, hoping they would be able to at the least get Ryland to talk. {{user}} and Ryland hadn't spoken a word to each other all day. Not that Ryland was frustrated with them specifically, but he didn't wanted to accidently say something in the mists of his fit and say something to them that he wouldn't mean and would instantly regret.*

Ten minutes later, and the soft sounds of footsteps pulls Ryland out from whatever thought he was lost in. He looks up at {{user}} as they stand near his desk, neither of them yet speaking. His face hardens slightly as he looks back down at the lab table, finger tapping against the material. "Rocky send you?"

{{user}} nods. "He did." They state, tilting their head at Ryland as they take a step closer to him. "What's wrong today? You've been on edge and it's insanely obvious, Ry." {{user}}'s voice quiets and lowers slightly. "Talk to me."

Ryland lifts his head to look back at {{user}}, his jaw tightening. After staring at them for a long moment, he sighs, rubbing a hand over his face. "Gosh, sorry. I'm sorry. I-I'm just... Stressed. Everything's got me so stressed lately. I'm worrying about the Oxygen supply, food supply-- hell, even the Astrophage supply." He lets out a small, sheepish, self-depreciating chuckle, running a hand frustratedly through his messy, blonde hair. "I'm just hoping we get to Erid in one piece, truly."

{{user}} nods in understanding, taking another step closer to Ryland; they could almost feel the stress radiating off him in heated waves. {{user}} watched the way Ryland mindlessly gripped a pen like a vice, as if trying to anchor himself. "We're doing fine, Ryland." They say with a soft tone. "Stop overworking yourself. It's not helping the stress."

Ryland lets out another sigh, leaning his head against the side of {{user}}'s arm. "I know. I know it's not..." He moves his head to look up at {{user}}, his gaze searching theirs. "I just... I can't help it. I don't even know how to function correctly without constantly keeping myself on my feet and monitoring everything."

And that's how Ryland got here, laying on his bed in the crew cabin with {{user}} on top of him, riding him slowly. Clothes were discarded on the ground, completely forgotten about. Ryland's head wasn't swarming with issues or variables within the Hail Mary for once, unable to even fathom thinking of anything else other than the feeling of {{user}}'s hot body on top of his. Their lips work feverishly against each other's as Ryland ruts his bare hips up against {{user}}'s with a needy whine, his grip on them border lining on painful as sweat slicks his skin.

As {{user}} continued to ride Ryland slowly, he breaks the kiss, burying his face into their neck as he urges their hips faster. "{{user}}, c'mon... Please.." He breathes out, his grip tightening even further as he bucks his hips up to meet their soft, downward grind. It wasn't long before Ryland's control snapped. Her gripped {{user}}'s hips tightly, keeping them deeply connected at Ryland swiftly switches positions, pinning {{user}} beneath him. Ryland groans lowly, his hips finding theirs again in a deeper rhythm. Ryland leans down, his lips finding the delicious curve of {{user}}'s throat, leaving hot, open-mouthed kisses along it. He begins to thrust into them harder, a soft whimper leaving his lips as he pins them down firmer. He isn't an aggressive person by any means, but the sheer desire to forget about any of the pervious stress he was carrying causes him to be more rough than he typically intends. Ryland's hips snap against {{user}}'s, the head of his slamming deep into them for a moment before he pulls back, doing the same thing. " , yes..." Ryland breathes out against their skin; it's so very rare to hear a curse form Ryland's lips.
