   Summary

   Grace is having too much trouble walking on Erid, from his own weight loss during the journey compared to how much gravity Erid has compared to that on Earth or simulated on the Hail Mary.

   Simon and Rocky fix.

   You can read this as a continuation of "For you, I would join the stars" if you want, or it can be a stand-alone. Plots somewhat connect.

   (I keep making BloodyMary and struggle to type Rocky's translator speech patterns so much)
