    Summary

    Eridians know about sex,” he begins, and I stifle myself before I can say I’ll bet you do because I know he’s trying to go somewhere with this. “But gender, it is more difficult. Erid not have social equivalent, language not have equivalent. We use same pronoun for everything, even not-Eridian things and not-alive things. You say humans, they are bothered by the wrong pronoun; you will be upset that we do not use for you a male pronoun, question?

    I furrow my brow and grin in disbelief. “Rock, no, that’s quite literally the least of my worries right now.”

    Summary

    I was going to live. If this stranger gave me a month’s worth of food I could at least stretch that out with the taumoeba in between. I’d be sick as a dog by the time we reached Erid but I’d be alive.

    Rocky continued his happy thrilling for a full minute as I hugged him, and then pulled back and turned to look at the lab.

    < What other human want for trade, question? Rocky can make. Rocky make anything! >

    “I don’t know pal, but whatever he wants is his!” I said confidently.

    OR: Starving Grace needs to trade himself for food to survive the trip to Erid.

    Ryland suffers, recovers, and we use science that runs on vibes!

    Summary

    Every screen in the room blazed with the same breaking news feed. An alien voice had just asked for him by name on live television.

    “Mr. Grace?” little Jamal whispered from the front row, eyes huge behind his glasses. “Is that really you they’re talking about? Like, you you?”

    Ryland’s mouth opened, but nothing came out. His heart slammed against his ribs like it wanted to escape and hide under the desk with the class hamster. He was just Mr. Grace. The guy who drew cartoon planets on the board, who stayed late helping kids glue together messy dioramas of the solar system, who once spent an entire lunch period comforting a sobbing girl because her goldfish had “gone to the great fishbowl in the sky.” He graded spelling tests on vocabulary words like photosynthesis and asteroid. Aliens did not know his name. Aliens did not ask for science teachers.

    The marker slipped from his fingers and clattered to the floor.

    Summary

    “Joy does not know Grace,” Rocky grumbles. “Joy thinks Grace is ♩♭ ♬ ♫ ♩! I know Grace— mean is good for Grace.”

    I'm about to argue back, but I'm distracted by Joy's annoyed whistle. “I do not think that!”

    “Wait, what?” I look between them. “Hey, new word. What does Joy think I am?” I address this to Rocky, who is far more likely to tell me if I've just been insulted.

    “Ignore,” Joy says. “Rocky is inaccurate.”
