    Summary

    “Would it help––should I bring my dinner in too?” Grace jokes, smiling in preparation for the absolute symphony of disgusted whistles he knows Rocky will produce at the thought of them doing something as depraved as sharing a meal. “I’ve been saving this week’s half packet of ramen for just such an occasion––”

    [YES YES YES!] Rocky’s translator app suddenly blares from the laptop on the floor between them. [YES, ACCEPT ACCEPT ACCEPT! GRACE RAMEN ♪♫♪♫ WITH ROCKY, AFFIRMATIVE! GRACE ROCKY EAT ♪♫♪♫ MEAL TOGETHER AFFIRMATIVE YES YES AFFIRMATIVE NOW.]

    or, a fic to answer the questions: What if you fell in love for the first time in your 40s, and it just so happened to be with your alien best bud who has five legs, no face, and is already married? And then what if somehow you accidentally proposed to said alien best bud without knowing, because while you may be Earth's best and brightest, you also notoriously suck at close interpersonal relationships (and also you have permanent memory damage)? What then?

    Summary

    I do not want Grace to be hurt. It is the most precious creature in my life. I would be lying to myself if I said I did not love it. I have never had such a close bond with a being in such a short measure of time. I adore its voice, and its laughter. My hearts sing when it delights in a discovery, and when it tells a story. I surge closer when it leans on the xenonite that separates us - when a tap on the barrier enables me to see right inside it, to its bones and nervous system. 

    I want to treasure it always.

    I want to consume it all.

    Rocky is in love with Grace and simultaneously want to eat him. you can't have it all, particularly not when Grace's appendix needs removing.

    Summary

    Partway into the trip to Erid, Rocky reveals to Grace that he could hear him every time he tucked himself into the bathroom to get off. Things get weird.

    "Makes sense. Though, I think the closest word we have for that in English would be alluring. Like, something that's attractive or enticing, pleasing to the senses. But that word has kind of, um. Intimate undertones," I finish awkwardly. I'm regretting saying that already. It is legitimately the closest match that I know, but I basically just told my best friend that he unwittingly called my gross organ sounds sexy. Surely that's not what he-- wait a minute.

    Summary

    For fuck's sake, would it really kill Grace to just learn how to say 'yes' or 'no' properly?

    (Rocky is interested. Grace… seemingly isn’t. Research must be done to be ABSOLUTELY sure though. For scientific accuracy. And cross-species cultural understanding. And... other things.)

    Summary

    Despite the circumstances, I find myself closer to a real connection with another being than ever before. I'm closing on a real, treasured friendship for what I'm starting to believe may be the first time in my life.

    My new friend, the faceless rock spider, is sleeping next to me while separated by a lovingly crafted barrier between our atmospheres. As much as I resent that barrier, I'm quietly thankful that there's something stopping me from acting on these strange, terrifying feelings I've developed.
