  1. Summary

    Historical events from Restoration London from Christopher's point of view. It will usually be pre-canon to avoid conflict but I might add others in there.

    Summary

    All life on Earth evolved, in the beginning, from aquatic life forms. To many, the call to return to the ocean is instinctual, a feeling deep in their bones that goes far beyond any rational reasoning. To float amongst the waves, to kick and splash until it feels as though you were always part of the water, is to be entirely free.

    --Or--

    Grace gets access to an ocean, and immediately forgets everything else he's supposed to be doing.
    Rocky is not as thrilled by this.

    Summary

    Basically what it says on the tin: the Eridians studying the leaky space blob Rocky brought back and being mildly horrified at, like, most of his weird habits and biology things.

    Summary

    Within the tight quarters of the Hail Mary, misunderstandings, arguments, and accidents are bound to happen. It's especially unfortunate when all three happen at once.

    Summary

    “Adrian will understand,” Rocky says confidently. “Will be excited to meet alien. Will be excited to meet person who brought me home.”

    “Yeah, and I'm excited to meet them too, but after that!” Is this a translation error? A cultural miscommunication? How is Rocky not getting it? “You're partners. They're not going to want some alien around while you're, like… going on dates and all that.”

    “Does not mean no time for Grace.” Rocky’s starting to sound frustrated. Part of me feels bad, but the rest is just as frustrated. “Why think this, question? On Earth, just abandon friends when have mate, question?”

    It's so clearly a rhetorical question, to which the answer is obviously supposed to be no, of course not. I freeze up anyway.

    Summary

    Grace has to handle First Contact with an alien planet with what meager Eridian his one set of vocal chords can make.
    This Is Fine. This is totally, completely, utterly fine.

    (Grace sounds like a pebble. This, alongside Eridian's extended lifespans, kicks off a chain of misunderstandings that Grace would find utterly mortifying if he knew what the heck was going on.)
