    Summary

    The engineer takes my hand. His skin runs hot. Very hot. He doesn't let go at what I would gauge as a socially-acceptable handshake time interval. Are we just holding hands in the middle of the lab-workshop space? Guess we are.

    "I'm Rocky," he finally introduces himself. He has a hint of an accent, something lilting, melodic. I can't really place it.

    "Rocky," I repeat, slowly. "Like the movies?"

    "No," Rocky deadpans, giving me a look like I'm stupid. "Like the rocks."

    Summary

    "... What are you doing?" Rocky says in confusion. "Why are you standing in the middle of the living room looking like you're about to puke, question?"

    "Oh!" Grace says. "Shi - crap. Am I doing it wrong?"

    "Doing what wrong?"

    "The - necklace. Thing. Courting. Me?" Grace chokes out.

    Rocky stares.

    "You are trying to court an Eridian?" He says dumbly.

    ***

    It takes Rocky one year to realize how much he loves his human.

    It takes Grace four times as long to realize that that love is reciprocated.

    Gosh flipping darn it.

    Summary

    Grace finds himself aboard the Hail Mary with no memory of who he is or how he got there. Good thing he’s not alone! Jacob "Rocky" Ortega, the lead engineer on the mission, is there to make sure everything runs smoothly.

    But things aren't quite as they seem - if they're just coworkers, why does Grace's heart beat faster whenever they lock eyes? And how come each fractured piece he recovers of his life before leaves him with more questions than answers about the true nature of their relationship? For someone who doesn't like to lie, Rocky is awfully good at keeping secrets.

    Summary

    What he didn't understand was the object placed into his open palm - a "parting gift" from Rocky. Completely unnecessary and dramatic, and the object was also baffling in its existence.

    On his hand was Rocky's sac.

    Or: Rocky gives Grace a fleshlight in the shape of his reproductive organs, and Grace uses it while crying.

    Summary

    The myriad yet simplistic sounds the human vocal box was capable of echoed on board their ship as Rocky watched in stunned silence.

    No, Grace did not delve into the specifics on the intricacies of human reproduction. In hindsight, they should have guessed that all intelligent species probably had pornography. With intelligence comes the opportunity for perversion, and this is no different from Eridians.

    Tldr: Rocky discovers human mating rituals and kinda wants his alien bestie
