    Summary

    I was asleep when it happened. I'd woken up without my meories on a suicide mission to save the sun and met and tentitivly befriended an alien(!!) this past month. My life was already going crazy.

    So why wouldn't a blood covered person appear out of nowhere on my ship. And oh boy, its a kid the age of my students. What could possibly go wrong?

    Summary

    A few minutes passed.

    The screen changed.

    A news reporter started a speech about how gay marriage had just been legalized by the United States Supreme Court. Holly squealed. Her husband didn’t have the same reaction, but he was probably just as excited.

    There was only one image running through Healy’s mind.

    If the times were on their side, he and March could’ve been standing in a courthouse together. Healy in his too-small suit and March in his stupid burgundy (purple) one. They could’ve gotten formally married, with the papers and everything.

    -`-

    Healy watches gay marriage get legalized.

    Summary

    I lived with this hunger long before the Hail Mary. This is nothing new. I’m fine.

    Right up until Rocky asks another question.

    “When last time you touch other human person skin, question?”

    Oh. Oh no. “When I… a few days after I first woke up here.”

    Rocky starts to relax for a split second, but then tightens when something occurs to him.

    “Grace crewmates dead when you wake up. You said this, statement. You not even know your own name, remember nothing, see dead bodies, confirm?”

    I nod, because if I open my mouth I will gag.

    “When last time Grace touch ALIVE human person, question.”

    I swallow thickly. I don’t answer aloud because I know Rocky can hear the hitch in my breath. My stomach churns with fresh bile. He senses my vital signs tick over into stress patterns and goes very, very still again.

    “Grace. When last time, question.”

    I clench my jaw so hard my temples ache, and beg him with my eyes to just stop.

    “Grace. Please say not when… when Evil Stratt humans put you to sleep.”

    I can taste grass.
