Summary
Mindy Park is rapidly realising that the first intelligent extraterrestrial to make contact with the human race thinks they’re fucking stupid. She’s pretty sure that Dr Grace isn’t accurately translating half the things Rocky is saying, but most of what he is telling her is that Rocky has a better way of doing what NASA wants them to do, and honestly, it seems like Rocky is mostly right. She probably doesn’t want to know what the other half of what Grace’s new alien friend is saying, if the things that are making it through what she’s calling the “middle school teacher filter” are “why would you do something the dumb way when you could do it the right way”.
or,
Mindy has a headache, Grace has trauma, Mark is confused and Rocky is wondering how humans made it in to space when they're all so, so dumb.

Summary
Grace forgets that most humans don't speak in a mish-mash of English and Eridian and Simon has a slightly different misunderstanding than the main one I've seen.

Summary
It had looked like a journal. No title on the outside, and a few pages stuck out a little bit like they hadn’t been part of the original binding. It was old, too, the pages were the kind of yellow that only happened after sitting around for a very long time. He’d opened it expecting to find something interesting, and had still managed to be completely surprised by what was inside.
It was a sketchbook, every page full of drawing after drawing. They were beautiful, too, even the rough sketches were ten times better than anything Davey usually found doodled in any of the books.
In the very front cover, he found a year. 1903.
Normally, he didn’t buy anything when he was spending a day browsing through antique stores. It was relaxing and fun and a way to wile away a Sunday without having to spend money. Something about this sketchbook made him feel like he just had to have it though.

Summary
“I’m not gonna stop,” Bob sniffs then, pacing, and he punctuates every word with a finger pointed towards Paul’s window, “until that entire goddamn family gets what’s coming to them. Darrel, too. You think he’s safe just because you, what, protected him in high school? Because you let him think he’s one of us?”
“What the fuck is your problem?” Paul asks, and Bob lunges at him.
OR Bob’s got an unfinished score to settle with Paul Holden and the Curtis family.

Summary
Dallas is fine with being the new group Guard Dog. He keeps people safe. It’s not like he watches over them like a sheepdog, or comes when called, or twitches his leg when someone plays with his hair.
Not at all.
———
AKA: Dallas post-fire, in which a group outting reveals just how much he’s changed.
