    Summary

    ***
    Grace frowned. Maybe he could—

    An almighty crash reverberated through the dome, and Grace startled. He surged to his feet, turning automatically toward the sound, looking up.

    A crackling creak groaned from the roof of the biodome, and abruptly, one of the xenonite panels popped out of its frame and fell, shattering. A massive floodlight fell through the opening and crashed through the roof of Grace’s house on top of the hill.

    A superheated plume of ammonia exploded from the hole with a loud hiss, expanding rapidly.

    “Grace!” came a frantic shout from down the beach. Grace swiveled to face Rocky, some hundred yards away, poised tall on his claws with alarm. “The safebox! Now! GRACE RUN!”

    Summary

    Rocky sings the tale of how he and Adrian met, fumbled, fell in love and finally became life-long mates despite coming from two completely different realities in Erid. Grace fails to see the similarities between their story to his own’s meeting, fumbling, falling in love and — who knows — becoming life-long mates with Rocky.

    "For never was a story of more mirth
    Than of Juliet, Romeo and the Mercy of Earth."

    Summary

    .
    Rocky, Adrian, and Grace have been mutual mates for a few years.

    Now, it would be really great if Grace himself was aware of that.
    .

    (From the perspective of Eridian tradition, Grace is hitting on Adrian and Rocky pretty hard and going through all the steps to court them. He just isn't doing it on purpose.)

    Summary

    “Mr. Grace, do you have a girlfriend?” Aria called out, which resulted in a cascade of laughter and jeering. Grace, despite four years of practice, was blindsided by this blow and floundered to come up with a rejoinder.

    “Uh,” He gurgled into the microphone, an idiot wearing three pairs of glasses, “No, I do not.”

    Or: Middle School Science Teacher Ryland Grace accidentally falls in love.
