Summary
POV: a dilf out of legend and his two intimidating assassin boyfriends see you across the bar and think you’re cute, wyd?
Or: Ilios is a young Independent fresh off the fleet to a posting on No Man’s Land. He goes out drinking and recognizes one of his fellow patrons. And maybe he stares a bit too long, sure, but he never expected to be invited over for a drink, much less invited into a great deal more.
It’s also possible that Vash the Stampede doesn’t know how sex works.

Summary
“Proof of concept,” ♫♬♯♩♩♫ says. “We’ve tested it thoroughly to ensure it fits the specified nutritional profile, and several members of our team have ingested small amounts of it to ensure there were no adverse effects.”
“You ate some of it?” I ask, rudely. I’m too irate to mind my language. Who do they think they are? That meat is for Grace. In a way, that meat is Grace.
“Yes,” ♫♬♯♩♩♫ says. They and the rest of the human life support thrum know better than to be offended by my occasionally strange behaviour. “Obviously we weren’t going to risk the life of Honoured Grace on a completely untested technology.”
That doesn’t mean much. There’s a lot of things that are safe for ingestion by Eridians that would outright kill a human.
Trust Grace, I remind myself. He’ll have thought of all this.
(OR: Grace's meburgers from the book epilogue. Let's talk about those!)

“♪♫♩as this♪ when, underst♪♪♫d ♪me, question?” Rocky says.
“What?”
“Can♪♪♫will understa♫d it ♫think talks♫♪ as this♪ Eridian you♩♫, question?”

Summary
'Rocky, do you remember the expected, average human lifespan?'
I ask it conversationally but Rocky freezes in place all the same.
'No,' he states.
'No?'
'Yes, Rocky remembers. No, do not want to talk about this.'
I lean back and fold my arms.
'Rock…'
'Grace. No. Bad bad bad.'
Dr Ryland Grace is an old man. Dr Ryland Grace knows what he wants to happen when the time comes. Rocky doesn't want to talk about it.
