    Summary

    Four years after arriving on Erid, Ryland Grace has built a life. He teaches pebbles, swims in his ocean, arguers with Rocky, and lets Adrian carry him when Erid's gravity gets too heavy. He feels like he is finally home.

    But not everyone on Erid sees him as a person. Some see a miracle. Some see a curiosity. Some see a treasure being kept behind sound dead walls.

    And someone inside Grace's dome has decided Erid deserves more than glimpses.

    Summary

    “This okay?” Simon muttered, the vibrations from his words rippling across Grace’s stomach.

    “Yes… yes I just…” Grace struggled to catch his breath. “This was not how I was expecting tonight to go.”

    Simon paused his kisses. “How did you see this going?”

    “I don’t know. We would… talk about it?”

    “Do you want to talk instead?”

    Grace couldn’t even remember what he wanted to say. Actually, there were no words that described what he wanted. “No. No, keep going.”
    -----
    Or Eridians find Simon's submarine while spreading Astrophage to the galaxy and bring him back to Erid. Grace has to change his normal routine to help this new human adjust to life. Slowly, they get to know one another, despite Simon potentially being a war criminal from a moon with an ocean full of blood. But there's just something else about Simon that Grace can't shake, and he's pretty sure Simon feels it too...

    Summary

    'What is Grace doing, question?'
    It all started with that question. Grace going back for Rocky was never going to be something he regretted. Ever.
    But then — on the way to Erid, problems that had been the last thing on his mind while on the journey to save his friend arose. Like privacy.

    Grace survives the journey to Erid, and maybe finds a new home there. Rocky and Adrian have a lot of love to give, and they're very creative. But maybe they'd like others to see just how wonderful their little humans is? How well he sings? Eridians are a very curious species, after all.

    Or the fic in which Grace finds out eridians are nothing like humans (duh). They are highly competitive, love playing with others and don't mind sharing. Privacy doesn't really exist on Erid other than for eating. He finds out just how much they are willing to share.

    Summary

    The egg is the same bright copper color as the rest of Rocky’s body, but smooth where his carapace is bumpy and brittle, the first Eridian-made object I've ever seen with curved edges rather than flat panels and sharp corners. It has a slight taper as well, narrowing upwards from its widest point.

    Rocky’s words echo in the back of my mind: “Grace would be perfect at take many ♪♪♫.”

    I jam the dissection probe through the shell.
