    Summary

    “Would it help––should I bring my dinner in too?” Grace jokes, smiling in preparation for the absolute symphony of disgusted whistles he knows Rocky will produce at the thought of them doing something as depraved as sharing a meal. “I’ve been saving this week’s half packet of ramen for just such an occasion––” 

    A torrent of sound not unlike four harmonizing freight train whistles bursts from Rocky, the shifting plates of carapace at the top of what Grace thinks of as his “head-and-torso” rattling rapidly. Twin puffs of superheated air escape his vents, and there’s a ringing in Grace’s ears as he watches a glass beaker vibrate itself off the edge of the lab table near them and onto the floor with a loud clang. He squeezes his eyes shut, bracing for a shatter that never arrives, then stares in disbelief at the scene before him.

    [YES YES YES!] Rocky’s translator app suddenly blares from the laptop on the floor between them. [YES ACCEPT ACCEPT ACCEPT! GRACE RAMEN ♪♫♪♫ WITH ROCKY, ACCEPT! GRACE ROCKY EAT ♪♫♪♫ MEAL TOGETHER AFFIRMATIVE YES YES AFFIRMATIVE NOW.]

    Summary

    “Our star, unto a special person, will bestow a gift,” my mothers lovely singing voice continued. “In the coldest of times, in despair and sorrow, when all hope seems to be lost, an entity will be birthed.”

    I gasped in excitement. “What kind of entity?”

    “Of light and luminance, airy and thin, ethereal in nature. A servant of the stars.”

    Aka, when Grace and Rocky reunite, Rocky tells Grace how he truly feels about him.

    Aka, Rocky being so mushy and sad and so utterly madly in love with Ryland Grace!

    Summary

    "Why? What about you and the other version of me? I guess you guys are close buddies too, huh?" I smiled over the rim of my mug.

    Ryland smiled. Or at least, I think he tried to. The expression twitched halfway through and he made a wincing face that disappeared as fast as he made it.

    "We are," he said after a pause. "Close friends."

    His eye twitched.

    Uh oh.

    watdatmean?

    If I still had access to Twitter, I'd be posting a tweet right now that just said: #watdatmean with no absolute context or whatever.

    Because Ryland suddenly sounded emotionally constipated, like he was hiding a massive and pointy shit inside his ass and desperately hoping nobody would notice. Which immediately made me notice.

    Summary

    “I won’t be the Grace you know,” he finishes softly.

    “Grace always be my Grace,” Rocky warbles, nudging harder against the xenonite ball. It’s resting between Grace’s legs, his knees. As close as they can get to each other. “Rocky will remind. Will fix.”

    or: the side effects of long term suppressant usage finally catch up to Grace. Rocky tries to help.

    Summary

    “Grace can feel song, question?” Rocky asked, slower than usual. The cooing had lulled him, too.

    I… Maybe? Yeah,” Grace whispered, and Rocky had to focus to understand the slurring.

    “Humans can feel sound, question?”

    Grace huffed a small laugh. “Sometimes, yeah. For example, when the sound is… very low and loud, we can feel it in our chests.

    “Song is neither low nor loud.” That would have an entirely different effect.

    I know. I can still feel it, I think. It’s strange.

    “Good strange, question?”

    Good strange, yeah.

    Grace could feel sound. Grace could feel Rocky’s songs.

    Hmm.

    Rocky discovers nature's laws aren't as inflexible as they'd thought. He puts this to good use.

    Summary

    "What if I help you?" Grace blurts out desperately, sweating even in the coolness of his house as his words finally manage to stop Adrian from storming out.

    "What?" Adrian says after a tense moment.

    "I can prove it to everyone," Grace says, his heart in his throat. "I'll - I'll make you and Rocky the most celebrated couple on Erid. I promise."

    "Stupid human," Adrian hisses. "You would give up your chance for him just like that?"

    "Yes," Grace says hoarsely.

    "Anything for him."

    ***

    Adrian does not like Grace.

    Which sucks, really, since Grace loves Adrian's husband and all.

    Summary

    “Grace?"

    Grace shakes his head, bringing himself back into the moment. “Sorry, Rock. What’d you say?”

    “What Grace want for birthday,” Rocky repeats himself, tone more insistent this time.

    “Y’know,” Grace says, deciding an unrealistic idea is better than no idea at all, “I think I want a hug from my best friend. If you can figure that one out, you’ll never have to get me another birthday gift again.”

    “Rocky will continue to get Grace gifts anyway.” Grace flushes at the declaration, which he does not want to address. Rocky is quiet for a moment after, tapping his claws on the ground in thought. And before Grace can tell him he was just joking, don’t worry about it, just make him some xenonite barbells so he doesn’t lose these muscles so fast, Rocky is perking up and skittering to leave the room again. “Rocky know how to get Grace gift! Will take some time. Late gift. Will make up for it next Earth year.”

    (Or, the one where Rocky's birthday present to Grace ends up getting a little out of hand.)

    “What is word for attractive person, question?”

    What? Grace, taken aback, didn’t immediately respond. Rocky liked the way he looked? Or, sounded? Whatever. Best to be seated for this conversation. Grace went over and sat on the edge of his bed and Rocky moved along his side of the barrier to be closer to him. “You think I’m attractive?”

    “Yes. Very much.”

    So Rocky makes a list.

    Reasons why friend Grace’s eyes leaked this Eridian cycle:

    1. One of the students gave him a carving of Earth. It was lopsided and the continents were wrong, but Grace held it to his chest and his eyes started leaking. It looked like the round-soft-thing he gave me when we first said goodbye.

    Summary

    It's not jealousy. Adrian is adamant about that. They are actually insisting that it’s not any emotion at all. Not even dislike. They are simply completely uninterested in anything that concerns “the human”. 

    Rocky believes them. Adrian has always been the level-headed one out of the two of them. They are too logical to be jealous. They acknowledge that Grace and Rocky have a special bond after everything they went through together and also understand that none of that will ever pose a threat to their relationship. 

    Neither are they heartless or ungrateful. They know that Grace is the only reason that Rocky is back at all, the only reason their star has stopped dying. Adrian has told Rocky again and again that they are grateful and happy and wish the alien no ill will. They even helped with the construction of the biodome.

    And yet they have no desire to get to know Grace. 

    **************

    You know those videos where the dad is like "You may keep the cat but I will have nothing to do with it" and a few days later they are smothering the kitty with cuddles and love?

    Adrian never stood a chance.
