Summary
"Does Geralt know you're pawing through his things?" he asked as he came to stand next to the bard, peering down at the swords scattered about. A quick count revealed at least twenty so far.
"Geralt isn't here," Dandelion replied absentmindedly as he reached an arm into the chest. He pulled it out with another sword tight in his grip. "Gods above! I already pulled out twenty silver swords. How many more could there be?"
OR
Dandelion's curiosity about the contents of Geralt's storage chest gets the better of him.

"Dandelion," she murmured softly. The bard twitched awake at the sound of her voice, so close to dropping off into sleep again. "Did you mean what you said last night?"
"You'll have to jog my memory, darling, everything's a bit fuzzy around the edges."

Summary
Back then, I hadn’t remembered the reason behind the weight of that ache in my chest. I’d assumed that it was loss, of course. Even if I hadn’t lost her before, my mother was lost to me now. But now I know why the ache runs so deep - a lot of things are starting to make a lot more sense to me, actually.
I had a family, just not for very long.
I saw it as a curse, that no one else in my family had lived past forty. I was supposed to be the exception. Maybe I can blame my cowardice on that. Deep in my bones, I’d feared and known that the universe would never let me live past my expiry date.
Until Rocky arrived and took my fate into his own claws, of course.
Or,
Grace recovers his childhood memories, just in time to celebrate his 41st birthday on Erid - and remembers there was someone he used to share it with.

Summary
How old was he, even? He’d been thirty-five when he left Earth — would that make him seventy-five, or forty-six, or forty-two once he returned?
Grace is returning to Earth, but what will that mean for him?

Summary
On the journey to Erid, Grace and Rocky discuss their respective alien biologies and Rocky learns that a lot of humans don't make it to the average 80 year life expectancy.
Years later, it looks like Rocky is going to learn that lesson again in a more personal way, but not if he has anything to say about it.
Feat: Grace being susceptible to medical misconceptions aka being a little dumb about human medical science (he’s not that kind of doctor, okay?), old man Grace ignoring pain and injury because he’s used to it, worried Rocky, and a peek at daily life on Erid

Summary
It's been years since Doctor Ryland Grace saved Erid and Earth. He is content with his life, happy just to teach the next generation of Eridians and have the occasional game night with Rocky and Adrian in his dome. For the most part, nothing changes.
And that's the problem. Shouldn't Grace, y'know...age? When Rocky indicates that he should be sixty human years old by now, Grace can't reconcile the young face in the mirror with the time that his friend has religiously kept.
Things get more complicated when another undoubtedly human ship shows up at the edge of the 40 Eridani system. Suddenly Grace is playing ambassador between the two species, and tensions are rising between them. Will this be a successful second contact, or is the peaceful life Grace just wants to live too much to ask for?
