Summary
Grace had made peace with his decision to leave Earth and humanity behind. He truly had. If it was to save Rocky and Erid, he would make that choice a thousand times over. But whatever impossible little slice of serendipity had dropped a living, breathing human into space 16.3 lightyears away from Earth was really testing the mettle of those convictions. Because the possibility that the man might live meant the possibility of a companion with whom Grace could share a real touch and the same air. But it also meant that if he died, Grace would have to grieve the loss of all human connection, ever, all over again.
Hope felt a lot like ripping open an old wound sometimes.

Summary
Eridians have recreated more of Earth than Grace could have imagined. Waves, trees, flowers — Grace is grateful for all of it. Simon feels the same, even if he doesn’t say as much. Grace can tell from how curious Simon has become.
Answering his questions about plant life was a breakthrough for their relationship. So, as long as Simon wants to know something, Grace is willing to teach him about it. It's just that giving a lesson on this particular flower isn't quite like what Grace is used to teaching about. After all, it's not like he'd have ever brought up marijuana in the classroom.
