Summary
Grace is a well-schooled man who loves learning. Surely he can accomplish his goal in fifty-six days.
He creates a calendar on his whiteboard. Fifty-six days until his ship reaches the Blip-A.
Fifty-six days in which to learn how to say Rocky's name—his Eridian name.

Summary
"You're acting weird today."
Rocky exhales a puff of air from his radiator the way a human would. He wonders when certain habits became second nature to him, like tilting his carapace and bobbing it up and down as though nodding, and he wonders, too, whether the time spent with Grace hasn't changed them both beyond repair, until they've become almost strangers to their own species. No longer Eridian, no longer human, but simply Rocky and Grace.
"I'm acting weird?" he murmurs. "You're sitting on the floor in your underwear."Bookmarked by powerxtrip

Summary
"You can literally hear inside me when you focus, bud. Has observing the action of my gallbladder in HD made you think less of me as a person, or humanity as a whole?"
[Yes,] Rocky says without hesitation, which makes Grace choke on a laugh. He amends, […at first. Then I get used to. Kind of cute now. Humans need infinity liquids to do basic process, always new mucus…]
"I bet I'm gonna find your ultra-high-temp organs super cute too," Grace offers with an irrepressible grin, "and actually, okay, this strikes me as a morale problem. You're getting too down on yourself. I promise you there is nothing I could find rearranging your—" Nope. "—digging around in there that would shame the entire Eridian race."
[No way for you to know this,] Rocky says flatly.
"There definitely is, because I'm gonna shame the entire human race first."
This is how they spend the next three days on the glove box addition while Mary reads to them from the unreleased 2021 NEISS report, filtered by incidents requiring extraction of foreign objects from the 'lower trunk' or 'pubic region'.
(or, Rocky eats something inedible. Grace helps. They both get Really Weird About It.)

Only us, Grace says, but that's easy to say when there isn't another option.
He doesn't want to lose Grace. Can't. So: he will do whatever it takes to make certain Grace could never leave him.

Summary
It’s obscene in a way that has no human equivalent. I think seeing human genitals on him would’ve shocked me less, because at least that’s something you might reasonably show to another person. But this, the place that is both mouth and everything else to him, that I’ve seen exactly once and then never again because it’s viewed as so private and intimate that even an Eridian’s mate does not get to see—that’s something else. The only time he would reveal himself like this to someone else would be to lay an egg, and even then it would be something you don't draw attention to, something necessary but shameful.
And now he’s showing me.
Not only that, he’s offering.

Or: Just because the mission is over doesn’t mean Rocky and Grace are done exploring.

Summary
“Genital organ swelling…is because of sleep hallucination, question?” Rocky says, sounding baffled.
“Pretty much. Human bodies are weird.”
“Weird weird weird,” Rocky mutters, rolling back out of my arms. “Glad Grace okay.”
I nod, not feeling okay in the slightest. “Totally okay. I mean, how could I not be? I’ve got a spaceship, all the Taumoeba I can eat, and you. What else could I need?”
Last night's dream isn’t fading like my dreams usually do after I wake up. I’m not sure I even want it to. I can’t stop hearing the sounds my brain imagined Rocky would make as I sank my fingers knuckle-deep inside of him, as he praised me for making him feel so good–

“Not so strange,” Rocky says mildly. “Back in not-so-distant past Eridian eat other Eridian all the time. Top of food chain. After natural disaster, war, not so much else to eat. Ecosystem delicate, especially if carnivore, especially if big. 🎵🎶 good thing to have to fall back on.”
“Cannibalism,” I manage to get out.
“New word. Cannibalism.”

Humans are, as a general rule, much more sensitive and vulnerable than Eridians.
Grace manages to find the one instance in which the opposite is true, and proceeds to exploit the heck out of it.

“What bondage, question? Humans also do?”
I flush again. Good thing he can't see it. "It's um..I'm not sure I can explain it well - "
“Rocky research, statement.”
Eridians have their own version of bondage, and Rocky gives Grace a demonstration. Grace makes some discoveries about himself.

Summary
The Eridians don't have love words. Love is assumed -- structural, built into everything. But they do have a word for the specific feeling of being relieved someone exists. Not for what they give you. For what they are.
Rocky has been trying to translate it for three years.

Summary
The slightly cold atmosphere of the ship feels like it’s been bumped up ten degrees, and Grace tugs at the collar of his shirt as he tries to flee the conversation, Rocky’s ball tumbling through the corridors behind him.
“Graa-aa-aa-ce.”
A deep, trembling sigh escapes Grace as he turns around and kneels in front of the xenonite ball to be eye to eye – figuratively – with his friend.
“Look, Rocky. I appreciate your enthusiasm. I do. But think about what you’re asking, man. I can’t let you vivisect me, for fudge’s sake.”
----------
Or, Rocky is interested in learning about the inner workings of the human body, and Grace lets himself be his lab experiment. To no one's surprise, this deeply intimate interaction takes a turn.

Summary
"Rocky did not understand human names and titles when we met. Eridian names longer, give information on Eridian's home, associations, skills." For the first time in ages, he positioned two of his arms together, forming the design that Grace thought of like a family crest, a single design bisected.
"You should teach me to read those before we get to Erid, so I can be polite." As Grace considered the linework, already picking up on some vague ideas from the shapes in Rocky's carapace, something else occurred to him. "So… I picked 'Rocky' because your outer shell looks like stone."
"And for inspirational story of athlete who defeats human system of poverty to become great champion. Eye of the tiger."
"Retroactively, yeah." Grace bent at the hips, getting to Rocky's 'eye' level. "So what'd you name me?"

“What? You’re not wanting to actually do this soap opera appearance, are you?” Rocky asked.
Grace’s ears pulsed with blood flow and he gave a twitch of a shrug.
“I mean…kinda?” he said. “I love As Erid Turns.”
Rocky turned to Adrian.
“Well?”
“Well, what? I think he should do it,” Adrian said placidly.
“Adrian! Grace is not some—cheap floozy of an entertainer! He’s a respected interstellar scientist!”

OR: Dr. Ryland Grace, unlikely Eridian soap opera star.

Summary
I lived with this hunger long before the Hail Mary. This is nothing new. I’m fine.
Right up until Rocky asks another question.
“When last time you touch other human person skin, question?”
Oh. Oh no. “When I… a few days after I first woke up here.”
Rocky starts to relax for a split second, but then tightens when something occurs to him.
“Grace crewmates dead when you wake up. You said this, statement. You not even know your own name, remember nothing, see dead bodies, confirm?”
I nod, because if I open my mouth I will gag.
“When last time Grace touch ALIVE human person, question.”
I swallow thickly. I don’t answer aloud because I know Rocky can hear the hitch in my breath. My stomach churns with fresh bile. He senses my vital signs tick over into stress patterns and goes very, very still again.
“Grace. When last time, question.”
I clench my jaw so hard my temples ache, and beg him with my eyes to just stop.
“Grace. Please say not when… when Evil Stratt humans put you to sleep.”
I can taste grass.

AKA: Grace starves for more than just food on the journey to Erid.

Summary
Mating hunts were something of a myth on Erid; a romanticized relic of their pre-civilized past. But Rocky should have noticed the signs that something was wrong before his instincts took over, with only one target: his best friend and sole companion on the Hail Mary, Ryland Grace.

"Right." With his unoccupied hand, he twists his wedding ring. "You know what's a better way to die, though?"
Ilyukhina looks up and smirks. "Orgasm?"

Summary
"There is no point in any of this rumination. You are gone. You are nothing now but a muse, something that I can conjure upon command and listen. You are nothing more now than a lullaby, a prayer, a dissonant, augmented, ugly, beautiful melody."
Rocky and Grace part ways for their respective planets. It should feel like a victory. It doesn't.

“I suppose what it comes down to is when you sleep, you trust me so much that I could do anything to you. And you’d let me.”
His claw tugs. Grace moans. Every heart in Rocky sings.
“Good,” Rocky says. “You’ll sleep now.”

sleeping with someone while they're actively sleeping is not a thing for Rocky, until Grace.
