don't sing love songs by notquiteaghost

Summary
Rocky thinks, for a moment, and then says, "Need word. Mate but friend."
I blink. Surely that's just, "Friend?"
"No, know friend. Need friend but more. Friend meaning-intensifier deepest-affection-indicator legal-obligation-indicator."
Fun fact: Rocky's language (Not the only one Eridians have! But they don't have quite as many as Earth, presumably because they live so much longer. Or maybe because their memories are so good, I don't know, I'm not a linguist) loves declension. It's a real pity Ilyukhina isn't here, she would definitely be picking it all up quicker than I am.
"Uh," I say. "Partner, I guess? But that's not exclusively platonic, and you aren't usually… married? Eridians marry friends?"
"Some friends," Rocky says, as if the distinction should be obvious. "Best friends. Most best friends. Rocky marry Grace, question?"
[rocky attempts to propose, and trips over some landmines buried in grace's psyche]

No.

Summary
One Grace-sleep is not so long.
It is not “night,” but Grace calls it night, and so Rocky does too. One human night. One third of one human day. One three-hundred-thousandth of Rocky’s life so far.
This is what Rocky tells himself. He folds up on his xenonite shelf above Grace’s sleeping area, and he listens, and he fiddles with his clock, and he tells himself that it is not so long.
~~~
Rocky has lived through the deaths of many of his friends. He does not want to lose Grace.

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.
