    Summary

    He’s fine, he’s slept alone before, he can sleep alone again. He doesn’t need someone watching him, he’s not a baby, crying in the dark for a… what’s the word…. nightlight! Adults don’t babble for their parents after a nightmare. His skin doesn’t crawl, there’s no sense of impending doom, there’s no danger crawling up from the shadows, and there’s certainly nothing wrong with Rocky- he’s in the next room over, the same place he’s been for the last few days, working on his project alone, just like he wanted-

    Grace is tired. He’s so, so tired.

    Or: Grace and Rocky have an argument that results in them avoiding each other, which leads Grace to realise he's become more reliant on Eridian customs then he first thought.

    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

    Two days after their first contact—and more importantly, their first words—Grace sets up his thinking machine to speak.

    Rocky does not need the assistance of a machine for Grace’s language. It is ugly and harsh to listen to, but it’s relatively simple to learn. That, and, well—Rocky was alone for a very, very long time before he met Grace. He maybe hangs on to each word a little more than strictly necessary. Grace only needs to tell him each word once for Rocky to know it forever.

    Grace, though…

    Well, he’s lucky Rocky is patient. Let’s leave it at that.
