    Summary

    Robby stands there, lost and unable to move as he watches his husband be taken from him.

    Langdon walks up to him, hand gently resting on his shoulder as he forces their eyes to meet. 

    “Go,” it’s all he says.

    Robby shakes his head, jaw clenching, deflated. “I can’t, I've got a hospital to run. There’s nothing I can do right now.”

    Langdon laughs slightly, shaking his head in disbelief. “Robby, if that man means anything to you, and from what I've just gathered, he means everything, then you need to be there for him. You will be no good to us if your mind isn’t in this, if you’re constantly worrying about him. We can cope without you for one day, and I’m sure Doctor Abbot isn't going to say no to coming in a few hours early for you. Go be with him, even if it’s just waiting up there, he’ll know.”

    Robby looks at him, feeling almost hollow. Useless.

    Summary

    Dennis treats a victim of child abuse. The little boy reminds him far too much of himself.

    Summary

    He thinks very little about the night of the assault. He thinks far too much about the morning after, about Robby’s hand on his wrist, Robby’s arm around his shoulder, Robby’s mouth against his hair, Robby’s fingers sliding a needle into his vein.

    He wonders if a therapist would call that a trauma response or a coping mechanism, and decides that he much prefers not knowing what they would say.

    Summary

    “Need word.”
    “What, suicide?” I sighed. “You know, killing yourself.”
    “Not have this on Erid.”
    I blinked. “You don’t have… killing yourself?”
    “No!” He pressed two of his hands up against the xenonite of his ball. “Never happen! Grace explain: humans not meant to go back to Earth, die in space, Rocky understand. Grace say Grace want to kill self, Rocky not understand.”

     

    An old lesson from their journey home becomes relevant again when Rocky comes to Grace with a confession.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Great fic, I like how it notices that suicide is something that happens mostly (if not only) to humans, and the concept of it being foreign to Eridians is really cool, as well as the part where Rocky didn't always feel like he belonged on Erid because of what he went through and the impact of knowing Grace had on him.
