    Summary

    The toll of listening to his friend waste way from malnutrition and make himself sick on taumoeba harms Rocky mentally almost as much as it does to Grace physically. He never wants to hear his friend vomit again, and he desperately wants him to stop sounding like skin stretched over bones. He'll do everything he can to make Grace healthy again.

    Summary

    "There is no point in any of this rumination. You are gone. You are nothing now but a muse, something that I can conjure upon command and listen. You are nothing more now than a lullaby, a prayer, a dissonant, augmented, ugly, beautiful melody."

    Rocky and Grace part ways for their respective planets. It should feel like a victory. It doesn't.

    Summary

    Dr. Ryland Grace did not believe in fate or predestination but, perhaps, he should’ve kept a healthy dose of anti-skepticism in his heart, all things considered. Perhaps, if he had, his life might’ve gone an entirely different direction.

    [...]

    Grace finally noticed something was wrong when the lack of any noise snapped him out of his reverie. He finally looked away from his laptop, eyes faintly burning, and confusedly observed the coffee shop. Everyone, baristas included, were staring at the television, faces pale and drawn, utterly silent and motionless.

    And on that sunny day Dr. Ryland Grace found refuge in a coffee shop to escape the heat, all but one week on the dot past his self-ejection from the world of academia via carbon-based insults, jobless and with all doors pointedly closed in his face, the appearance of the very first Kaiju was shaking the world at large out of all previously known logic and scientific rationale.

    It wouldn’t be the last.

    —————————————

    Circumstances may be different, but a deep bond of friendship and love might save the day, nonetheless.

    Summary

    The engineer takes my hand. His skin runs hot. Very hot. He doesn't let go at what I would gauge as a socially-acceptable handshake time interval. Are we just holding hands in the middle of the lab-workshop space? Guess we are.

    "I'm Rocky," he finally introduces himself. He has a hint of an accent, something lilting, melodic. I can't really place it.

    "Rocky," I repeat, slowly. "Like the movies?"

    "No," Rocky deadpans, giving me a look like I'm stupid. "Like the rocks."

    Summary

    “Grace lie,” Rocky says impatiently. “Stop wasting time. Tell what is wrong, now.”

    Well, I’m not doing that. Even if I wanted to, I don’t know how I'd even begin explaining to Rocky that the only thing wrong with me is the fact that I want him to pin me down with his voice, shake out half a dozen orgasms, and then knock me out for good measure.

    So we're going with plan B: time to fool the walking lie detector.
