Summary
Grace's old custom binder is getting to small for him, and he's tentative to ask if the Eridians can make him a new one. They obviously offer to make him one out of the nicest Eridian fabric after Rocky proposes a xenonite binder that's too jaggedy, and the new one makes Grace confident. He then travels back to Earth for the first time with Rocky. Everyone is shocked when he's alive and excited to see Rocky in the flesh- er- should I say, rock?

Summary
There was a great benefit that Grace hadn’t taken into account when he first came to Erid – too focused on making sure that he didn’t die to pay attention to anything else. See, Eridians didn’t have the same concepts of gender and sex that humans had. If only he could shake his own internal struggles.

Summary
"Is there something wrong?” It comes out sharper than he means it to. He forces himself to lessen his grip on his chopsticks as he picks at his noodles. Stratt’s perched on the table, forcing him to look up at her, craning his neck while the lights shine down like a halo.
“Well, the sun is dying,” she says, and they both know it’s not what he asked. Grace’s noodles keep falling apart when he tries to fish them out with his chopsticks and eat.“I know that. I mean–” he has to swallow, unexpected emotions welling up, that familiar old feeling from his teenage years, his twenties, every time someone called him the wrong thing or looked at him out of the corners of their eyes with that fear, or disgust, or worse, pity. “Is there something wrong with me?”
“There’s nothing wrong with you.” Normally he would appreciate the straightforwardness, but today everything is grating on his nerves.
“You’ve been looking at me weird all day.” He stabs at the noodles again with his chopsticks. No luck.
“Grace, do you want surgery?”
Oh.
