    Summary

    “What is ‘constellation’ meaning, question?” Rocky asks, pointing with a claw at the softly star-speckled ceiling.
    Grace smiles warmly. “Patterns in the stars,” he answers with a faraway lilt to his voice. He leans back into the metallic floor and lets himself just look at them, lets his eyes skim across them in familiar rhythms. “You draw a line between two points, and if you string enough of ‘em together, it can look like a picture,” he explains. He points up at the first constellation he ever learned, traces the invisible lines between the stars. “We call this one the Big Dipper.”

    or

    Grace has been dangerously stressed lately. A trip to the Mental Health Node is long overdue.

    Summary

    The Eridians have finally gotten the water feature in Ryland's personal zoo enclosure just right (even if Rocky would like him to stop calling his dome that).

    Rocky refuses to believe that humans naturally float. There is no way Ryland's entire species regularly goes into deep water for fun.

    Summary

    "Grace, question?” Rocky says from his tunnel.

    “Yeah?” I peek my head up, wiping nonexistent dust off my pants. The storage compartment was almost completely sterile, but I needed something to do with my hands.

    All okay, question?” There’s a slight quiver in the notes of his voice that I’ve come to recognize as hesitance.

    “Of course, buddy.” I laugh disbelievingly, as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

    Ryland finds Yao’s gun and he is perfectly normal about it, thank you very much. He’s only been stuck in the same environment eating the same meals everyday for a year now. He’s fine.
