Summary
Grace, question?
His tone is patient, the chords of his words simplified so that I can definitely understand him without my laptop-translator-rig. See, he’s just considerate like that.
No one in all the Earth Sci-Fi stories and movies tells you that the aliens will be kind.
Another tap of his arm. Sad thoughts?
“Sad thoughts.” I concede. No point lying to someone who can hear your heartbeat.
Hm.
I’m proud of myself for identifying the note as a thinking sound, a filler word. I gotta say, my foray into exolinguistics has been an excellent distraction from the general misery that is my now-mostly-remembered-life.
Do you want to talk about it?

Some overdue conversations . Time spent together on the way back to Erid re-opens some old (and some fresh) wounds.

Summary
"There is no point in any of this rumination. You are gone. You are nothing now but a muse, something that I can conjure upon command and listen. You are nothing more now than a lullaby, a prayer, a dissonant, augmented, ugly, beautiful melody."
Rocky and Grace part ways for their respective planets. It should feel like a victory. It doesn't.

Summary
After the Taumoeba leak, after I decided to die after all and turned my ship around to save Rocky, after Rocky's frantic calculations about food supplies, Taumoeba multiplication rates, and human caloric intake needs, after we realized that with some rationing and luck I would make it, but that we were headed toward the unknown territory of trying to rapid-prototype me a life support system and synthetic food supply on an inhospitable planet: after all of that, after everything, I shouldn't have been surprised that it only took a few months on board the Hail Mary for things to get weird.

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
“Listen, Cipher,” Ford growls, “because I am about to make something very, very clear.”
He moves away from the machine and steps up to Bill, poking him pointedly in his naked chest.
“You and I are through,” he says. “Whatever… whatever partnership we had before died the day you threatened my home and my family.”
He grabs both sides of Bill’s shirt in one fist so he can yank him in close, look into his wide, wide eye.
“So you can keep begging, keep manipulating, keep manhandling me, but the results will all be the same,” he declares, “because I will never sleep with you again. Ever."
Two hours later, Ford finds himself bent over the bathroom sink as Bill fucks him from behind.
