    Summary

    Considering the state of your parents’ relationship, you’d almost certainly anticipated you’d have to move back from the city to help look after your sister while they went through a messy divorce- and keep everyone in check. So, of course, you drop everything and head back to your hometown: Grover Cleveland.

    However, what you didn’t expect, was for your sister to have such a hot science teacher.

    Summary

    Nobody likes a teacher's pet, especially not when the teacher is actually the world dictator, and the pet is her uptight right hand.

    Some would say it was the will of an ironic god that put me up there in space with an actual teacher, and no less desperation to be wanted. What embarrassment unfolds takes me apart bit by bit — comparing which pieces of Stratt no longer fit, and replaces them with xenonite fragments of Ryland Grace.

    Summary

    It was bad enough that one day all the stars and planets vanished into nothing, but now you're drifting along completely alone trying to find the motivation to actually live. What better to do than to fly into a black hole that may or may not still exist?

    (Warning: Writer knows nothing about science and even less about space travel, accuracy is at an all time low.)

    Summary

    Grace and Rocky were not strangers to intimacy. They've had their fair share of "scientific explorations." But when Grace's strength and body started to deteriorate during the trip to Erid, they stopped those intimate explorations. He had to get better before he or his body wanted anything to do with sex.

    But now on Erid, Grace is happy and relatively healthy, no longer a massive concern. Adrian and Rocky want to finally start the family they always wanted, and they want to include Grace as well.

    The thing is: Grace doesn't want to touch or be touched.

    He just really, really wants to watch.

    Summary

    “Here–is this better?” I say, unable to look back at him even as I hear his constant tapping directly in front of my butt.

    “No. No see. View inhibited. Move obstructing parts.”

    My face heats instantly and I feel the flush travel down my neck and chest. I shake my head. “No, Rock, I’m not—I’m not spreading my cheeks for you just so you can stare at my, stare at my—” I cut myself off and move to turn back around.

    “Grace.” Rocky’s voice has lowered to the near threshold of my capacity to discern it. I feel the word more than I can hear it, the vibrations rocking through me and making me gasp with its intensity. “Show.”

     

    or, alternatively: rocky and grace finally get down and freaky with it-- wherein grace shows hole and rocky has a revelation.

    Summary

    “Always think,” Rocky shifted his ball closer, bumping into Grace’s shoulder. Grace bumped it back, lips quirking up. “Think, think, think. Human brain never shut off. What Grace think about, question?”

    Grace went quiet for a moment and looked away. “Uh, my… ‘mate.’ Back on Earth. I remember I had one.”

    A series of happy little squeaks and chirps erupted from Rocky, his claws waving in frantic little jazz hands. He must have been excited to realize Grace had someone waiting for him back at home. Grace still didn't have the heart to tell him the truth, and likely never would. He shakes the thought away and focuses, eyes half-lidded and flickering back toward Rocky. The display pulled a genuine smile from Grace, though he wasn’t sure there was anything happy about the man back on Earth who grabbed him like a dog.
    ________________

    Alternatively, Grace has a flashback and subsequent revelations about himself and the person he was dating back on Earth. It affects him more than he thought it would.

    Summary

    “What is word for attractive person, question?”

    What? Grace, taken aback, didn’t immediately respond. Rocky liked the way he looked? Or, sounded? Whatever. Best to be seated for this conversation. Grace went over and sat on the edge of his bed and Rocky moved along his side of the barrier to be closer to him. “You think I’m attractive?”

    “Yes. Very much.”

    Summary

    As he stared down into the lumpy grey goop that was his evening rations, he contemplated whether it was really worth it.

    They’d come a very long way just for Grace to give up and die at the last hurdle, both physically and emotionally. The Tau Ceti system was a long, long way away now, and Grace had faced not one but two highly emotional suicide missions. Three, if you counted the time before he was given a military grade roofie and hucked into space without his memories.

     

    Rocky and Grace make it back to Erid! Huzzah!
    Now they have to navigate all of... that.

    Summary

    Ryland Grace and Rocky are so close to saving stars they can taste it. A series of mysterious symptoms leads Grace to discovering that things are about to get a lot more complicated than he could have ever imagined.

    Summary

    Rocky had fallen in love with Grace long ago. There were many reasons, even now, not to act on this love. Telling Grace would likely make it uncomfortable and add stress to its already very stressful short life. Their journey to Erid would last under four Earth years, which is practically nothing in the grand scheme of things. Rocky would soon be reunited with all his friends and family, and of course, his lovely bond mate.

    All this to say, it would be an unspeakably stupid, selfish, illogical decision to approach Grace romantically. A decision Rocky knows he would regret for the remaining 300 years of his life. He knows he will regret it, and so he makes peace with keeping it to himself. He loves being Grace’s dearest friend. That’s plenty enough to quiet the voices in his head.

    One day, while watching Grace sleep, he learns that Grace reciprocates his feelings.

    Summary

    What human do when restless, question?” Rocky asks me from his starfish position. I half-ass one last sit-up, then flop onto my back, mirroring him.

    “Uh. Depends on the human, I guess,” I say, chest rising and falling as I recover my breath. I wrack my brain for examples. “Exercise, mostly. Like going for a walk, or to the gym—that’s a special building just for exercising. Or, you know you can play sport, go dancing, have sex—”

    Rocky perks up at that last word, and I immediately regret it.

    Summary

    “Don’t have to face any specific direction to talk to you, Grace,” Rocky says. “Am radially symmetrical. Hearing organs on whole body. Grace biologist, should know this.”

    I suddenly regret teaching him literally anything about biology. Some things more than others.

    “Figure of speech,” I say. That’s so not the point. “Listen, is this about the other day? Because we can pretend it never happened, if it’s making you uncomfortable.”

    Rocky skids to a stop. He slowly backs up a few paces, and now I can tell he is actually focusing on me, even though it doesn’t really matter which facet of his body is pointed in my direction, due to the aforementioned radial symmetry.

    “Not uncomfortable,” Rocky says. “Interesting display of human culture and biology. Grace very kind to share with me."

    Summary

    Ryland Grace expected a lot of things to change when he decided to go back to Blip-A and save Rocky, but he had no idea things would get this complicated. Namely, this emotionally involved.
    --
    Ryland Grace will starve on his way to Erid without figuring out a new food source. In this universe, Rocky offers to help create a food Ryland can eat during their journey on the Hail Mary together by hybridizing Ryland's DNA with food from his planet. As a result, Ryland begins taking on... different traits. Traits that make it possible for him and Rocky (and eventually, Adrian) to get closer than any of them ever thought they would be while the three of them start a life together on Erid.
    --
    To simplify, Ryland Grace becomes the mate (and eventual pebble incubator) to Rocky and Adrian.

    Summary

    Sometimes, when two Eridians have a strong connection, they swap bodies. This is typically taken as a sign that they are supposed to mate. Rocky has swapped bodies with Adrian many times, but he never thought he’d swap with an alien.

    Swapping will improve communication dramatically, giving them more access to each other’s languages, so this development is really good for the mission.

    Unfortunately, the alien isn’t taking this very well.

    Summary

    “Hey! It’s a lot up here, okay? It’s a normal response to stress.” He rubs a hand over his face. “Okay, I cried a lot down there, too. But not in class! Not if I could help it. But having to say goodbye, gosh, I’ve never been good at that.” Grace laughs, but it sounds sad. His mouth is shut firmly, and he leans against my ball. He’s so soft, his body melds to the side of the xenonite with ease. “I can’t imagine what a mess I’ll be when—” he cuts himself off, but I know what was coming next.

    I’m not sure how I’ll be when we say goodbye either. It didn’t seem like it’d matter so much at first, after all, if we part ways, it means we succeeded. I’d be going back to Erid, to Adrian, to home. But I’d be leaving behind Grace. The thought of that is unpleasant. It sinks deep in me; the emotion is painfully familiar. It’s been a long time since I’ve had anyone to mourn losing anyone again. I don’t want to think about it, I’m not ready.

    or 5 times Rocky feels something for Grace. 1 time he does something about it.
