Summary
“Hey, bud,” I say softly. “I’m here, okay? I just want to help you.”
Rocky’s vents rattle like a sigh. “I know.”
“So what is it that you’re so upset to leave behind?”
There’s another long, silent moment, stretching until I start to worry that I’ve finally done it: found the first-ever cultural or personal barrier between us that we can’t cross together. I’m long past the point of being able to pretend that Rocky doesn’t mean the world to me – more than the world, actually, literally. I don’t need to have all my memories back to know that the moment we were reunited after I turned back for him was the happiest I’ve ever been. So I just can’t stand the thought that he’s hurting in some part of himself I can’t reach.
Then Rocky says, “Am upset to leave bodies of crew,” and my heart stops.
–––
Or: Grace and Rocky stumble together through an interplanetary anthropological exploration of funerals, grief, and meaning, trying to find a way to say goodbye to Rocky's crew.

Summary
“Hey! It’s a lot up here, okay? It’s a normal response to stress.” He rubs a hand over his face. “Okay, I cried a lot down there, too. But not in class! Not if I could help it. But having to say goodbye, gosh, I’ve never been good at that.” Grace laughs, but it sounds sad. His mouth is shut firmly, and he leans against my ball. He’s so soft, his body melds to the side of the xenonite with ease. “I can’t imagine what a mess I’ll be when—” he cuts himself off, but I know what was coming next.
I’m not sure how I’ll be when we say goodbye either. It didn’t seem like it’d matter so much at first, after all, if we part ways, it means we succeeded. I’d be going back to Erid, to Adrian, to home. But I’d be leaving behind Grace. The thought of that is unpleasant. It sinks deep in me; the emotion is painfully familiar. It’s been a long time since I’ve had anyone to mourn losing anyone again. I don’t want to think about it, I’m not ready.
or 5 times Rocky feels something for Grace. 1 time he does something about it.

Summary
"Rocky did not understand human names and titles when we met. Eridian names longer, give information on Eridian's home, associations, skills." For the first time in ages, he positioned two of his arms together, forming the design that Grace thought of like a family crest, a single design bisected.
"You should teach me to read those before we get to Erid, so I can be polite." As Grace considered the linework, already picking up on some vague ideas from the shapes in Rocky's carapace, something else occurred to him. "So… I picked 'Rocky' because your outer shell looks like stone."
"And for inspirational story of athlete who defeats human system of poverty to become great champion. Eye of the tiger."
"Retroactively, yeah." Grace bent at the hips, getting to Rocky's 'eye' level. "So what'd you name me?"

Summary
What if Grace never needed to turn around to go save Rocky, and he spent five years in total isolation going back to Earth on his own… Isolation can do very bad things to the mind. Like, convincing yourself that deleting all the video logs you've collected about the entire mission and an entire newly discovered alien race is a good idea. Hope that doesn't come back to bite him in the ass.

Summary
When Rocky first found an alien life form near Tau Ceti, he never expected to see them again after a solution was found, so he named them accurately for what he knew about them: Dumbass

Summary
Another planet has noticed that 40 Eridani is brightening again, and its inhabitants have showed up to say hello... and to make a very strange offer: each of Erid’s representatives may make a wish. And what Grace and Rocky both want most, but think they can never have, is to better understand the strange way in which the other sees the world. No AI was used in the writing or illustrating of this story.

Summary
The engineer takes my hand. His skin runs hot. Very hot. He doesn't let go at what I would gauge as a socially-acceptable handshake time interval. Are we just holding hands in the middle of the lab-workshop space? Guess we are.
"I'm Rocky," he finally introduces himself. He has a hint of an accent, something lilting, melodic. I can't really place it.
"Rocky," I repeat, slowly. "Like the movies?"
"No," Rocky deadpans, giving me a look like I'm stupid. "Like the rocks."

Summary
Bad dreams suck. Grace wakes up from a nightmare of being on the Hail Mary, which is utterly impossible, but his throat hurts like he really did have a tube pulled out of it.
Turns out, he wasn't the only one to have that dream. Which was even more impossible than him actually being on a ship that's not even fully built.
aka A movie react fic where everyone sees the film in dreams.

Summary
“Um, hello.” Rocky lifts a hand slowly. The rock spider chitters and attempts to lift one back. But it’s tangled in wire, and the force that the alien uses to tug it free sends his body reeling backwards and thumping against the side of the tunnel. Rocky tries to keep a straight face.
“I’ll call you Grace,” he says. “Clearly you have plenty of it.”
...
Rocky wakes up in the Tau Ceti system, with his commander and science specialist dead. How's he supposed to save Earth?
Befriend the alien scientist he runs into, of course.

Summary
“Oh! I- I was looking at the Taumoeba on the reverse microscope. Observing how they move, counting the population.”
“This tell Grace what, question?”
I shrugged.
“Not that much. Population is something I’m only trying to figure out for the sake of marking a… sample size; it’s a bit more difficult, since when I did work in the wet lab, it was mostly on bacteria, and we can’t exactly… count CFU for these guys. Once I have that, we can try looking at modifying them properly. I think the first step would be to mark sort of an… an MIC of nitrogen (...)” I sighed, pressing my glasses back upon my nose. “I’m gonna start on some more useful things in a second, but classical microbiology is sometimes just… fun.”
A beat.
“Grace use a lot of words and Rocky understand about half of them.”
***
Ryland Grace is a scentist, and so experiments he must do—they have to figure out how to breed nitrogen-resistant Taumoeba, after all.
It's a shame the lab was arranged by someone with not a lot of experience in the wet lab.
It's also a shame if he'll never get to talk to Eridian scientists about their sience.
