    Summary

    “Hey, Rock, why is there some sort of egg in my mailbox?”

     

    Or: Grace gets fanmail, and then a team to vet said fanmail. Rocky wishes that they kept Grace illiterate.

    Summary

    Sending a middle-school teacher with epilepsy light-years into deep space without his medication was, in retrospect, a terrible idea.

    Luckily, Rocky is fantastic at detecting them and protecting Grace.

    Or, WLC server thought about the prompt: What if Rocky was like a seizure alert dog for Grace?

    Or or, part one of me putting chronic illness, ailments, and conditions onto Ryland Grace.

    Summary

    "Many stages in Eridian reproductive process. Rocky Adrian laying cycles finally sync up recently. So, Rocky Adrian think finally time for eggs. Adrian lay five eggs, very good. Only, strange thing happen. Rocky only lay one egg."

    “Oh,” I say. “That’s unusual, right?”

    "Very," Rocky hums.

    My throat tightens. "Does that mean there's something wrong? Are you sick?"

    Rocky makes a gesture I usually interpret as "not exactly". "Not sick," he says. "But doctors still worry. When Eridian start to make fewer eggs, this usually means laying period of life is over soon. Rocky very young for this. Rocky supposed to be in ideal time of life for laying. Rocky younger than Adrian, even." He shifts on three of his feet. Already, my mind is racing ahead, wondering -- "Doctors told Rocky to ask Grace, is this radiation side effect, question?"

    Summary

    Grace’s first days on Erid are not easy. In fact, he’s so sick and wounded from starvation, scurvy, and an almost-crash that he barely remembers it. What he does remember is the betrayal and pain that he experienced on Earth.

    Lucky for him, his best friend left him in good hands. Now if he could only figure out who that is and if he’s safe with them.
