    Summary

    “Does Grace have soulmate, question? Grace said he had no mate.”

    Grace lets out a small—albeit a little sad—chuckle. “I’m pretty sure I don’t have one.”

    “What?!” Rock screeches.

    Grace flinches back a bit from the noise. At least Rocky has the gall to look a little sympathetic after his outburst.

    “Apology apology apology, just confused.”

    Grace nods in agreement. “I’m not too sure about it either, buddy, but people used to look down on me for it– no, not down,” he thinks, trying his best to pull at any other memories soulmate related of his that are willing to come to the surface of his mind, “They looked at me with pity,” He trails off.

    “No no no. Not right. Grace have soulmate, surely.”

    Grace laughs and shakes his head. “At this point, I hope I don’t have one. Imagine having the other half of you shot up into space before you could even meet them. I wouldn’t want to do that to them.”

    “But Grace go home now, Grace find mate!”

    Or: You find your soulmate the first time you come in physical contact with each other.

    In all his life, Ryland Grace has never met his soulmate.
    He probably never will.

    Summary

    Confirmation bias: the human tendency to search for, interpret, and recall information that aligns with our existing beliefs, while ignoring or dismissing evidence that contradicts them.

    No matter what Grace tries to tell him, Simon is very sure that the man is divine in nature. It just makes sense.

    ~~~

    Simon winds up in The Enclosure, naturally. Grace is super down to have human company on planet Erid, but he really wishes someone would have given him a little bit of warning first. Especially about Simon’s religious cult upbringing — if he had known about that, he maybe could have planned a better-worded greeting that wasn’t basically, “Be Not Afraid.” He really set them up for failure with that one.

    Summary

    Grace’s health has been deteriorating fast, so when he eventually passed, he never thought that he would see Rocky again.

    He had accepted that the Eridian soil would cradle his body better than Earth’s ever has.

    But boy oh boy, what luck he has!
