Summary
You really did love how much I eclipsed you in size, didn’t you? How my hands could wrap around your waist so effortlessly…how my presence enveloped you so totally…
How, for me, the bliss of holding my beloved so close warred with the boiling in my blood at life waiting to claw them away from me…
How I wanted my embrace to be so total…for the one with the privilege to own you, body and soul, to be me, and only me…
There is one specific moment we shared. I recall it most fondly. Laying (what could fit of me) on your bed with you sprawled across my body, feeling the idle shapes you’d draw across my stomach with your fingers as you spoke. Drawing equally senseless pictures with your words, formed of future aspirations and idle fantasies. I remember nodding along to each and every one, while content in the knowledge that my beloved’s destiny lay right beneath them.
It was so hard not to take you then and there. I wonder, sometimes, if it would’ve been easier if I had done so. The advantage of surprise, and all. Then again, that fight you have in you is wondrous to witness. I want to watch it in all its fire.
Before I snuff it out.

Summary
One Grace-sleep is not so long.
It is not “night,” but Grace calls it night, and so Rocky does too. One human night. One third of one human day. One three-hundred-thousandth of Rocky’s life so far.
This is what Rocky tells himself. He folds up on his xenonite shelf above Grace’s sleeping area, and he listens, and he fiddles with his clock, and he tells himself that it is not so long.
~~~
Rocky has lived through the deaths of many of his friends. He does not want to lose Grace.
