    “An anthropologist,” I realize. “I think that’s what you mean." Apparently, he likes my word, because he doesn't push further.

    chat, it was not an anthropologist

    Summary

    Rocky drops his tools, making Grace jump. “Nightmare? Grace had nightmare?”

    He sounds panicked. Grace hurries to reassure him. “No, no, not a nightmare. Just a…just a dream.”

    “Just dream?”

    Grace sighs. He wrings his hands and sniffles. “We were…on a beach. Together. Sharing the same atmosphere. Safe and…and happy. You asked me about the constellations.”

    “Rocky no understand,” Rocky says. “Sound like good dream. Why Grace sad, question?”

    Summary

    Ryland Grace went into a coma 10 days before the Hail Mary launched, and his crew were put into their own comas. Turns out there's a ten-day difference in wake-up time, too; and, unfortunately for Ilyukhina and Yao, ten days is enough time to make first contact.
