    Summary

    Rocky knows that Grace is considered an adult for his species, but his hindbrain goes crazy when he finds out he’s in his 30s. So that’s why he’s been feeling weirder than normal. His alpha instincts think Grace is a pebble.

    What if Eridians had ABO dynamics and humans didn't? (Gen ABO dynamics | Non-sexual heats/ruts)

    Summary

    “Soon, okay? I’ll sleep soon.”

    “Grace is liar.”

    Grace didn’t deny it.

    He wasn’t sure how long he worked for after that, but at some point, his body presumably shut itself down right there in his rolling chair. At least, that’s where he woke up, with a start, to find Rocky glaring at him with his whole body from across the lab.

    They didn’t talk for a while after that.

     

    Grace has a complicated relationship with sleep (and himself). Rocky enforces a bedtime (and Grace treating himself a little better).

    Summary

    "There's no sound in space. Not after the last of my crewmates died; it was just the ambient noise of our ship ever since. Nothing else. Not for a long, long stretch of time. Quiet is one of the worst things for us. Same as darkness for humans, I suppose. We try to avoid it as much as we can; Eridians, when together, rarely sit in silence. There is always talk or song or at least hums that carry no meaning and rythmic taps. Just to say I am here."

    or; after being away for so long, coming home doesn't go exactly the way Rocky had expected it to.

    Summary

    What if Taumoeba never adapted to live inside xenonite, so Grace and Rocky both made it home, alone but safe and sound?

    Rocky arrives to rapturous fanfare. The Eridians get to work, not only on deploying the Taumoeba but on honoring the greatest hero... heroes in Erid history.

    18 years after the Hail Mary’s return, a listening post on Earth picks up a strong infrared signal from the fringes of the solar system. Humanity powers up its best Petrovascope and performs a sweep. It’s confirmed—a small blip, getting brighter and brighter.

     

    Or: the first interstellar "got home safe" text.

    Summary

    One Grace-sleep is not so long.

    It is not “night,” but Grace calls it night, and so Rocky does too. One human night. One third of one human day. One three-hundred-thousandth of Rocky’s life so far.

    This is what Rocky tells himself. He folds up on his xenonite shelf above Grace’s sleeping area, and he listens, and he fiddles with his clock, and he tells himself that it is not so long.

    ~~~

    Rocky has lived through the deaths of many of his friends. He does not want to lose Grace.
