    Summary

    A series of short fics exploring Grace and Rocky's friendship, among other things. (Each chapter is its own story; I just wanted to have them all in one place.)

    Chapter 1: Rocky thinks humans are equally disgusting and cute. Somehow, through it all, Grace reminds him of home.
    Chapter 2: Rocky can pick Grace up easily, and Rocky thinks it is very funny. Rocky and Grace tease each other.
    Chapter 3: Eridians bring Grace their babies for him to see, and Grace learns about Eridian culture/religion. Grace is also bad at taking compliments.
    Chapter 4: Rocky makes Grace celebration jewelry. Later, Grace gets a similar gift from Adrian.
    Chapter 5: Grace and Rocky tease each other, and Rocky is introduced to the idea of throwing things at your friends. He decides that humans are odd, but maybe aren't all that bad.
    Chapter 6: Grace tries to convince Rocky to swim, but Eridians don’t typically like deep water because they are heavy and will sink/drown. Grace learns about some Eridian mythology.
    Chapter 7: Grace talks about the lack of support teachers have on Earth. Rocky is confused by this.

    [This has a limit, so new chapters will have their description at the beginning of the chapter instead]

    Summary

    “Preliminary conclusion: either the French drug failed due to a manufacturing defect, or I am genetically annoying. Congratulations, evolution. You finally decided to give me a useful mutation besides myopia and a worrying degree of astigmatism.” Grace suddenly felt tired, so very tired. He was just a man, for God's sake! A middle school science teacher who gave everything for his kids, and it still wasn't enough. What did they expect from him here? The rest of the crew was dead; he was a man abandoned in the void. He understood Stratt's actions, even though he hated every second of it.

    Alternatively, Ryland Grace remember everything.
