Summary
Rocky trilled, like that wasn’t the answer he wanted. “Other rituals, question? Romance rituals, mate bonding, for humans. Eridians love romance rituals. Give gifts, wear special garments, spend life together. Hundreds of years.”
“That sounds nice,” I said, once again overwhelmed at just how long Rocky has lived. “You do all that with Adrian?”
“Grace avoiding question.” Rocky tapped against his Xenonite casing. “Annoying.”

Ryland Grace is in denial about some important things about himself. Rocky being nosy doesn't help, except when it does.

Summary
Rocky hummed. "We have cultural practice. Is like mates without eggs. It is like… soul bond. Other person who is part of you."
"I like that," Grace smiled. "Sounds a bit like platonic soulmates from Earth culture."
"Yes yes yes," Rocky said. "Tried to find words on thinking machine. Those are right words, amaze amaze amaze!"
On Erid, just because you have a mate, it doesn't mean you can't have a soul bond with someone else too.

Summary
The capsule touches down on Erid about a decade and a half after I do.
There's a message inside translated into fourteen different languages. Y'know, just in case I've taught myself - and then the Eridians - Afrikaans.
Hey, it reads. Can we have our ball back, please?

The Greatest Act of Optimism by Acewithapaintbrush

Summary
The Eridian thrills a high sound that doesn’t get picked up by the translator which means that it has no clear meaning. Like when a human gasps or sucks in a deep breath. It actually sounds a little like that. When they notice that I’m staring straight at them they scramble back into their hiding spot and hold very still.
A child, I realize with a start.
That’s a child!
“Hey,” I call and the kid squeaks again. I was about to get to my feet but abort the movement and crawl closer on my hands and knees until I'm inches away from the xenonite wall. I wait and it takes me much too long to realize that they don’t have to peek around the corner to see if I’m still there.
“Hey there,” I try again, my voice low and calm. It’s my teacher voice, the one I use for shy and scared students.
Used.
The fact that I haven’t had to use it for years and it still comes to me automatically almost knocks the air out of my lungs but this is not about me, it’s about making sure the little pebble doesn’t die of fright from the scary alien. “Hi, I’m Grace. It’s alright, you don’t have to be scared.”

Summary
After four years of space travel, Grace and Rocky are finally approaching Erid. Grace has been working hard to learn Eridian, but two days out, disaster strikes - his keyboard is broken and Rocky is hurt.
Luckily, Grace can speak some very basic Eridian with his single set of vocal cords. Unfortunately, he sounds like a newly hatched baby Eridian when he does.

[VIDEO LOG BEGINS. RYLAND GRACE is looking at the camera. His hair is shoulder length and unwashed. He wears a black t-shirt with text that reads “YOU MATTER. YOU ENERGY.” There are dirty bandages all over his left arm and scarring on his neck. He is smiling.]
Hello Earth! Or hello to whoever’s seeing this first. Don’t freak out! It’s me! Um… I am – I should probably do an official intro, right?

Petulantly, Rocky says, “Grace sound stupid. Like child.”
“I’m just talking how you talk, buddy.”
“Yes. This is because I talk like child, to speak to stupid human.”
“Well, you don’t have to do that,” I say without thinking.
“♪♫♩as this♪ when, underst♪♪♫d ♪me, question?” Rocky says.

Summary
“Adrian will understand,” Rocky says confidently. “Will be excited to meet alien. Will be excited to meet person who brought me home.”
“Yeah, and I'm excited to meet them too, but after that!” Is this a translation error? A cultural miscommunication? How is Rocky not getting it? “You're partners. They're not going to want some alien around while you're, like… going on dates and all that.”
“Does not mean no time for Grace.” Rocky’s starting to sound frustrated. Part of me feels bad, but the rest is just as frustrated. “Why think this, question? On Earth, just abandon friends when have mate, question?”
It's so clearly a rhetorical question, to which the answer is obviously supposed to be no, of course not. I freeze up anyway.

Summary
"Rocky?" Grace says. Its tone has taken an inquisitive edge. Humans do not use tone the same way Eridians do. They express more in their facial muscles. It makes Grace hard to read. But the lilt of its voice says concern. "You okay, bud?"
"How old Grace, question?" Rocky asks, not wanting the answer.

Knowing that your teacher leaks is one thing, but seeing it happen is a completely different experience.
Grace's Eridian students get a bit of a surprise when they manage to make their leaky space blob teacher emotional. It does not go well.

Number 5: Eva Stratt and Ryland Grace’s Unsubtle Yearning by holyflyingswisscheese

Summary
Okay, sure. So, there was a word for people who didn’t find other people sexy. Great. A normal word. A well-known word. And not a medical condition.
But surely whoever wrote this understood that it was an anomaly. There weren’t enough people like this to warrant a label. After all, what was the point of a human who didn’t want sex?
(What was the point of me? — I’d asked a hundred times before.)
Or: A heteronormative movie adaptation, a very weird BuzzFeed article, and an internet rabbit hole lead Grace to the discovery of a label sixty years in the making.

Summary
“I— Yeah,” I cut whoever was speaking off, my voice sounding strange and distant, like I was hearing myself from ten feet away. “I’m fine, I just have to… I think I need… uhm…”
I was rising to my feet, then, my thoughts blurry and all over the place. As I shuffled out from under the table, I moved too fast and hit the edge of it with my knees. It was a terrible idea — pain flashed through my hips and spine without the help of my cane, which I vaguely registered leaving on the ground as I pushed away from the conference table, took one more look at the people gathered around it…
And broke out into a run.
Or: Grace returns to Earth but has trouble adapting to humans again. Humans who stare, and scrutinise, and can read his thoughts at a glance.

Yáo registered the yellow first.
Bright yellow, the color of a hazard sign - it was Dr. Grace's familiar raincoat, unmistakable even at distance, the man wearing it moving fast across the open ground that separated the administrative buildings from the interior fence line.

Summary
"The Committee worked incredibly hard to provide him with comfort, enrichment and communication, with the slight caveat that they were. Well. Bad at it."
Based on the works of tumblr user @justcakethanks. I adore these little train wrecks and felt they deserved some love.
