    Summary

    "What if I help you?" Grace blurts out desperately, sweating even in the coolness of his house as his words finally manage to stop Adrian from storming out.

    "What?" Adrian says after a tense moment.

    "I can prove it to everyone," Grace says, his heart in his throat. "I'll - I'll make you and Rocky the most celebrated couple on Erid. I promise."

    "Stupid human," Adrian hisses. "You would give up your chance for him just like that?"

    "Yes," Grace says hoarsely.

    "Anything for him."

    ***

    Adrian does not like Grace.

    Which sucks, really, since Grace loves Adrian's husband and all.

    “No, no. It’s just— when humans are stressed, or exhausted, it can be more… difficult. To experience arousal. So… you know. Space travel. The Petrova Line. Lots of things going on up— up here, not much going on… down here.”

    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.

    Summary

    After that Rocky understood very clearly – that predator was dumb but in the best way possible.

    Rocky didn’t know how to describe it better. Its body – Grace’s body – was badly designed here and there. But all together? Surprisingly efficient. And scary, and disgusting. And Grace didn’t pay much attention to it because it was just like that all its life.
    It was a past for its – h̴u̵m̶a̶n̵ – species when they used the advantages of their body for a hunt, the alien explained later, but for Rocky it was so obvious, that Grace was a deadly predator, it wasn’t even funny.

    ___
    Or, Humans are just THAT thing from the Appalachia mountains for aliens and I would die on that hill, thank you very much. It’s hilarious!
