    Summary

    Grace and Rocky discover that the text to speech translator for Rocky's voice has been translating Rocky's pronouns wrong. A conversation about gender, something hard for Rocky to understand, ensues.

    This is a rewrite of my book fic, "He Is We," based on my additional movie head canon that Grace's voice translator for Rocky is a "smart" translator. (I believe that head canon is the only way to make some of Rocky's lines in the movie make sense.) The original fic was based on a conversation with Andy Weir in the main PHM discord server, where he said he'd once started writing a short story where a translator used "she" for the Eridian high status pronoun, and "he" for the lower status pronoun. Just like the book fic, this fic is a possible origin story for why a translator would make that decision.

    Summary

    "...as much as he loved the company of the spider-like alien, he waited for Rocky to go to sleep.

    So, he could do all those things he genuinely didn’t want him to be privy to."

    Bookmarker's Notes

    I love it 👏😭
    Also I would probably rate this explicit and not mature so take that into consideration
