Summary
“What’s two plus two?”
The question evades me. There’s an uncomfortable scratch in my throat that I can’t quite wrap my head around. Regardless of the discomfort, my chest feels light. Unburdened. Weightless. My brain feels quiet. Somehow, that feels new.
Even as I’m gathering that something is definitely off here, I know for sure that “quiet” has never been a word I’ve used to describe my brain. Why is that? I have no idea.
As my body continues to rifle through each foreign sensation, there is one thing on my mind that somehow breaks through to consciousness. The lightness in my chest is wrong. The silence in my mind is wrong.
And like a prodigal son returning home, the heaviness settles in. The tears spring to my eyes and the noise returns to my brain, feeling nothing short of familiar.
"What's two plus two?"
“Fffour,” I finally grind out, wondering if the labored exhale would relieve me of my burden.
“Correct,” the computer chimes.
I know two plus two is four.
But not why my heart feels like it’s shattering inside my chest.Bookmarked by zeldaaddict429

Summary
”Being stubborn!” Rocky accuses. ”Making excuses, statement!” And yeah, I don’t have any defense for that one.
“Will you watch me sleep? I want to take a nap,” I ask without preamble. I’m tired and don’t have the energy to argue right now. Or eat for that matter.
”Yes. Always watch, fact,” he agrees immediately. ”Still mad. But Rocky watch, statement.”
I set aside the laptop, rubbing at my eyes with a tired sigh as I get comfortable right there in the little ‘nest’ as Rocky likes to call it. It makes me feel just a little better. I’m drifting off before I even realize.
OR:
It's been nine months since Grace woke up in space. Stratt only planned for them to be alive for nine months. Which means that Grace has ran out of a very important item: his antidepressants.Bookmarked by zeldaaddict429

♪So humans do not need to care about viruses, question?♪
“Well… we do need to care a little. Some viruses cause more severe infections than others. Influenza, for example, is pretty inconvenient for most people. It can cause nausea, fever, nose leaking, aches, coughing, and more. It can even be deadly for people with weak immune systems, like children or the very old. We definitely take it seriously when someone vulnerable gets infected. Influenza is one of the diseases we vaccinate for. Who remembers what vaccination is?”
The entire class raised their claws. Grace facepalmed.
“Right, duh. Forget I asked.”
♪Cannot forget.♪ Someone chimed, eliciting several giggling thrills.

Ryland Grace has an annoyingly short lifespan by Eridian standards. Rocky fix. Good thing the human came with a laptop full of all human knowledge and a human who can explain it.

Summary
Mindy Park is rapidly realising that the first intelligent extraterrestrial to make contact with the human race thinks they’re fucking stupid. She’s pretty sure that Dr Grace isn’t accurately translating half the things Rocky is saying, but most of what he is telling her is that Rocky has a better way of doing what NASA wants them to do, and honestly, it seems like Rocky is mostly right. She probably doesn’t want to know what the other half of what Grace’s new alien friend is saying, if the things that are making it through what she’s calling the “middle school teacher filter” are “why would you do something the dumb way when you could do it the right way”.
or,
Mindy has a headache, Grace has trauma, Mark is confused and Rocky is wondering how humans made it in to space when they're all so, so dumb.

“Worry about him later,” Yáo ordered, “for now, make the farm. We can’t let both missions fail because we got distracted."
The 3-person crew of the Hail Mary are headed back home to Earth, Taumeoba in hand.
Or, at least, that should have been the plan if nothing was to go wrong.Bookmarked by zeldaaddict429
