    Summary

    By the time Colt Seavers meets Jody Moreno, he's been stealth for more than a decade.

    At least when it comes to his being trans, anyway; he's never made a secret of not being straight. He didn't try making a secret of being trans, either, it just kind of happened.

    Summary

    "♩ ♩ ♬ ♩ ♪ ♫! [Mean very important! Not many!]"

    Grace racks his brain for a moment, then offers, "Precious?"

    "[Yes! Teachers precious! Grace precious!]"

    On Erid, teachers are the protected, prized few. Rocky learns that Grace was a teacher, and they have a discussion. (Can it be counted as one if dissonant notes are shrieked at the revelation for the majority of it?)

    Summary

    “Yes. Important research for science.” he pauses “Important research for Grace-related science” the Innuendo was there, alright. “Graceology” Ryland giggles at his pun. Rocky sure is trying to get a PhD in Graceology lately. “Call me a geologist the way I’m studying your-”

    “Stupid joke. Anyways, Rocky found out some humans liked to use certain clothes before or during mating. Courtship reasons? Question.” He had figured out that humans really liked their clothes and while this wasn’t that uncommon in Erid, Rocky found it weird. “Are you talking about lingerie? Gosh you- Yes, it is kind of for courtship I guess. But sometimes it’s just to feel- Uh nice?” he makes a so-so hand gesture “Never really understood that but it’s something to do with texture.”

    “Understand. Eridian’s have something similar but it is solely for courtship. Fun”

     

    Grace and Rocky have an unsual friendship. But there is nothing usual about two aliens loving each other.

    Summary

    “...nope.” Grace pulled the quilt farther up on his shuddering body, then turned his back to him. “Nope- oh, no, no, absolutely not. Nope.”

    “For sci-encee,” Rocky whined, actually whined, practically pawing at the edge of the bed, and Grace whipped back to face him, eyes squinted in the dark.

    “I don't buy that, Rock.” Rocky wilted with the sentiment. God, he was pushy- and if Eridians could evolve to have puppy dog eyes, Grace was convinced Rocky would be at the forefront of that development. “Not for a second. Y’know, you’ve been-”

    “How will Rocky possibly know how to please, if no?”

    ---

    Doctor Ryland Grace feels as if he's being hunted. Rocky is very aware of Doctor Ryland Grace's feelings.
