Summary
'Every missed call sent a spike of guilt through Gon that made his limbs feel as if they were made of lead. Every time a text pinged, his arm hairs stood on end.
Even so, he could not bring himself to call Killua back. His body was too heavy, and his mind was molasses.'
-
Gon, alone on Whale Island, struggling to be a person after the Chimera Ant War, meeting Ging, and, most importantly, separating from Killua.

Summary
The rest of Rocky's bulky little carapece situates itself in the curl of my body. I complain about his sharp edges just to annoy him. He stands his ground.
He's not sharp: the suit takes care of that. I am.
There's a little groove in my 8th rib on the left side I never noticed before. Now that the fat's gone, I can feel it. It's shaped like the concave slope of a red blood cell, and reminds me of a gravity well.
Grace is a little tired.

Summary
Jesus, my back.
I pause, gasping for breath — I'm genuinely sweating. And embarrassed. I wonder if Rocky can hear me losing to a slab of wood.
God, I hope he can't. Please God.
It's stuck behind a few empty crates and some miscellaneous spare lab supplies. A few beakers. A blender, for some reason. An ironing board. Why? Because go to hell, Ryland Grace, that's why. You can't have enough fuel to come back but you can have an ironing board with no iron. Here's two kilos of cement-flavoured coma slurry. Kill yourself.
"I'm being dramatic," I tell myself aloud.
I'm really not. Dying in space is a very dramatic situation.
The ways that Rocky and Grace miss everything all the time, yet watch over each other, always.

Summary
Grace and Rocky arrive at Erid. While Grace is more than happy to be one-step further from death, he has yet to confront his very human brain about it. Memories of his time on earth, near-death experiences in space, and being suddenly surrounded by giant alien spiders is a recipe for disaster. Luckily, Rocky is there to help him every step of the way.
or
The Eridians have a lot to learn about their new alien roomate.

Summary
"It's the spirit of the thing Rock, we hang out, we shoot the shiz, we play games, we watch movies — y'know, like a sleepover!"
"How different from normal night, question? Always hang out, Grace always playing game and watching movie. Always watch sleep."

Ryland Grace proposes a movie night, Rocky grumbles, and the both of them fall into a routine which benefits the both of them - being as physically close to each other as they can possibly manage.Bookmarked by orchardkeeper
