Summary
Observation one: the scar Rocky left on my arm looks suspiciously similar to eridian typical mate marks.
Observation two: Rocky seems to be flirting with me.
First of all he keeps finding excuses to touch me, like brushing my knees and thighs as he walks by me, or “accidentally” bumping into me. And then there’s the comments…
He made one just yesterday, after I finished the last of my (frankly disgusting) coma slurry as he was observing me intently the entire time. That’s also strange. Didn’t he say eating was very private, almost intimate to his species?
Whatever, my point is, he perked up, trilling happily, and then almost playfully said, “Grace so good, swallow so prettily.”
That… he can’t not know what kind of insinuation that comment holds right?! Which brings me back to my notes:
Hypothesis one: Rocky thinks we are in a romantic relationship.
Hypothesis two: I’m totally loosing my mind and making connections where there are non. (I’m not very confident about Hypothesis two)
Or, Grace realises the scar on his arm is similar to Rocky’s mate mark and panics when Rocky (seemingly) out of nowhere starts flirting with him.

Summary
"Okay, so, just for brainstorming purposes, the carving should be somewhat round in shape, but it has to be related to me. Specifically my body so it feels like a part of me is a part of you. And it should also match the handprint on my forearm in substance, so anyone seeing it, would connect the dots and realize I'm yours and you're mine. Did I forget anything?"
"No, Grace got all parameters correct, maybe was wrong about bad human memory after all."
"Thanks bud… love you too."
Or, Grace and Rocky—after confessing— decide to get married and now need to figure out what to carve into Rocky’s arm. They don’t however, foresee the effect said carving might have on Rocky. (Wink, wink)
