Summary
Somewhere between Adrian and Erid, Rocky invents the xenosuit to help Grace. It turns out they both needed it.
"The thing about sharing a spaceship with a guy in a hamster ball is you end up doing the grunt work. So here we are, en route to an alien planet, and I am once again hanging off the side of the dang ship. At least this time I’m securely fastened and not watching us sink toward our doom."

Summary
“I’m… I’m not supposed to be here,” he stutters, gripping the helmet in both hands, his knuckles gone all white. He looks up and swallows back the bitter taste in his mouth, throat clicking audibly in the quiet. “Please. I don’t want to die.”
Rocky stops, staring at him.
He stares at Grace’s trembling mouth, the shaking of his legs, the sweat collecting on the suit’s collar. Understanding blooms slowly on his face—too slow—so Grace decides to hammer in the point by tilting his head just the slightest bit to the left, baring his neck.
There, right under his ear, swollen and red: a needle mark.
Rocky’s breath catches. “You did not sign up to be a pilot,” he whispers, horror-stricken.
It’s not a question.
***
Rocky’s copilot is dead. Stratt needs a team willing to sacrifice themselves. And Grace is a researcher who just wants to lay low and do his job.
Somehow, all three of these things are connected.

Summary
Grace is a well-schooled man who loves learning. Surely he can accomplish his goal in fifty-six days.
He creates a calendar on his whiteboard. Fifty-six days until his ship reaches the Blip-A.
Fifty-six days in which to learn how to say Rocky's name—his Eridian name.

Summary
"Teach me, then."
Rocky freezes at my words. I guess he wasn't expecting that. I feel a little smug, like I always do when I manage to surprise him.
"You want to know more about my egg cycle?"
"Sure," I say.
Of course I want to know about his eggs. Has he lost his mind? I want to know everything about him.

Summary
Maybe Stratt was right all along.
Maybe I am going to die in space.
I can feel it getting worse every day now.
I feel it in the creaking of my bones, the burning in my eyes, the aches in my muscles, in my head, in the pit of my stomach.
But there isn’t anything I can do about it now.OR, as Grace and Rocky journey back to Erid, the consequences of Grace's dwindling food supply begin to show, and Rocky becomes desperate to save him.

Summary
They sit in silence for a moment, side by side, the faded, orange light illuminating the distance between them. Henry eventually braves the gap, leaning over to nudge his elbow with his own.
"It wasn't your fault, James," he says. "You just wanted to make your movie."
James, Henry, and a conversation in the van.

Summary
“Meet-cute,” Rocky repeats after what he’s sure has constituted a long enough pause in conversation to become awkward. “It is an interaction in which two individuals have their first official meeting while in a situation that can be considered cute, humorous, embarrassing—”
“What?” Grace cuts him off. “No, I mean—yes, ‘course I know what a meet-cute is. Jesus christ.” The man shakes his head. “Who are you?”
“Oh. Well, Rockett is my government issued surname. But I prefer the name Rocky. Has charm to it, yes? I also respond to Rock on occasion.”
He holds out a hand.
“It is nice to meet you!”
***
or, Rocky time travels.
And also speedruns the full human experience. That too.

I don’t need all my memories back to know that home is wherever I’m with Rocky. I knew that when I turned around for him. Maybe I even knew it when we said goodbye for the first (and last) time.

Summary
Funny, the things you forget. Like that aliens are supposed to be frightening.
Years of friendship had buried that instinct. Turns out it only takes being effortlessly pinned to a mat, a xenonite limb unspooling towards you with all the slow, sinuous elegance of a War of the Worlds tentacle, for it to come roaring back.
“Humans bond with their young by torturing them, question?”

Summary
“Genital organ swelling…is because of sleep hallucination, question?” Rocky says, sounding baffled.
“Pretty much. Human bodies are weird.”
“Weird weird weird,” Rocky mutters, rolling back out of my arms. “Glad Grace okay.”
I nod, not feeling okay in the slightest. “Totally okay. I mean, how could I not be? I’ve got a spaceship, all the Taumoeba I can eat, and you. What else could I need?”
Last night's dream isn’t fading like my dreams usually do after I wake up. I’m not sure I even want it to. I can’t stop hearing the sounds my brain imagined Rocky would make as I sank my fingers knuckle-deep inside of him, as he praised me for making him feel so good–

“Mr. Grace, do you have a girlfriend?” Aria called out, which resulted in a cascade of laughter and jeering. Grace, despite four years of practice, was blindsided by this blow and floundered to come up with a rejoinder.
“Uh,” He gurgled into the microphone, an idiot wearing three pairs of glasses, “No, I do not.”
Or: Middle School Science Teacher Ryland Grace accidentally falls in love.

Yeah, he's running. by godofsloths

Summary
Grace ran.
He kind of didn't mean to, but he'd almost cried when he felt his bare feet touch the sand, and his legs moved before he could think about it. He was a lot slower than he remembered being - years spent in a cramped space, malnutrition, the gravity of an alien planet and just general trauma will do that to a guy. But he ran anyway.He saw the sea shimmer, the surf waving at him as he laughed and whooped his way down the beach.
He saw the last human being he'd ever know again struggle to meet his eyes, as he begged and pleaded.They had killed him.
But he had never felt more alive.Bookmarked by Mighty_Ant

Summary
Rocky hums appreciatively, holding me tight. “Eridian language very information-dense. Especially for cursing. Grace could not handle.”
“I could – hey, I'm a grown man!”
“Once I hear Grace walk into lab table, fracture smallest toe,” Rocky says flatly. “Even then worst thing Grace say is dog gone it. My Grace crazy. No one on ship to stop you from say fuck, statement!”
I was already blushing from hearing my Grace. I only got redder from hearing the Eridian word I translated as fuck, whose notes Rocky has made me very, very familiar with over the past weeks. Hey, they say immersion is the best way to learn a language.

Summary
It was an accident the first time.
(One could argue that it wasn't even an accident the first time. Grace could argue this, and he would argue this, probably questioning, how does someone masturbate accidentally??? To which Rocky would then point to Portable Earth Thinking Machine and bring up the many definitions of the very word accident—one being "lack of intention or necessity," which is what Rocky means in this particular case.)
…admittedly, it doesn't quite work. Rocky didn't start pleasuring himself accidentally after all—that was very intentional, as much as he'd hate to admit it, but he'd rather jump out of Mary's airlock than explain that to Grace.
So no, not quite an accident. Not exactly the word that fits this peculiar situation he's gotten himself into.
Rocky just didn't intend for it to go this far.

Summary
‘There appears to be a real risk,’ said Psychologist Prime, tapping a stylus against their tablet in an idle way that frayed at the edge of Adrian’s sore nerves, ‘That should Alien Human-from-Earth-of-Sol Asylum-seeker Savior-of-Erid Grace perish, then your mate Savior Rocky may experience a radical and potentially fatal decline in physiological and psychological health.’
‘...I see,’ said Adrian. With exceptional calmness.
---
Let it not be said that Adrian was not devoted as well. They had stood firm, a loyal widower longer than others could fathom. Once you encountered a love like Rocky’s, there could be no replacement. Nothing could even compare.
‘Do you understand that?’ Adrian wanted to ask. So desperately, they wanted the alien’s reply. ‘Are you the only other creature in the universe who understands what it is like to be loved by someone so completely?’
---
Adrian meets Grace several times, before Grace is healthy enough to meet them in return. Despite light-years of distance between their species, Adrian might have finally met the first other being who appreciates Rocky like they do; or so they hope.
