Summary
“Not so strange,” Rocky says mildly. “Back in not-so-distant past Eridian eat other Eridian all the time. Top of food chain. After natural disaster, war, not so much else to eat. Ecosystem delicate, especially if carnivore, especially if big. 🎵🎶 good thing to have to fall back on.”
“Cannibalism,” I manage to get out.
“New word. Cannibalism.”

Summary
"Rocky did not understand human names and titles when we met. Eridian names longer, give information on Eridian's home, associations, skills." For the first time in ages, he positioned two of his arms together, forming the design that Grace thought of like a family crest, a single design bisected.
"You should teach me to read those before we get to Erid, so I can be polite." As Grace considered the linework, already picking up on some vague ideas from the shapes in Rocky's carapace, something else occurred to him. "So… I picked 'Rocky' because your outer shell looks like stone."
"And for inspirational story of athlete who defeats human system of poverty to become great champion. Eye of the tiger."
"Retroactively, yeah." Grace bent at the hips, getting to Rocky's 'eye' level. "So what'd you name me?"

Summary
“What are you talking about?” Grace's fingers played quick chords as he spoke. He didn’t even look as he did it, but it did not make them any less purposeful.
“Discussing possible reasons why Tau Ceti is not infected while other stars are,” Eva replied deftly. “I would invite you to join, but we were just finishing—”
“Oh, that’s easy.” His hand twisted a knob, and the notes came out sharper. “It is infected—Petrova Line and everything.”
In Grace's opinion, dreaming about time traveling is no excuse for getting out of practice with his Eridian. To the rest of the Petrova Taskforce, it seems a bit odd that their resident Astrophage expert has suddenly taken to carrying a keyboard around and playing it whenever he speaks. Eva Stratt resolves to figure out what is going on.

Summary
Ryland gripped the wall. “What do—what do we do? What are we supposed to be doing?” His voice didn’t quite teeter into panic, but it was a very near ‘almost’. His voice cracked slightly in the middle.
“Not much,” Ilyukhina told him, smiling, but her eyes were sweeping him up and down. “Nothing to do. Hold onto something and get ready for a ride.”
“I don’t think I got training,” Ryland warbled, realizing.

AKA: Yáo is trying to keep things running smoothly as half his crew deals with complete amnesia. Ilyukhina plays referee. Grace does not handle 0g well.
