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 squeezes out a wet chuckle, thick with emotion, before suddenly falling silent. Its mouth does that strange up-down up-down movement, like it’s trying to figure out if it’s perplexed or amused. “Wait a minute—“ The human flops on its side to face them.
“Rock, that almost sounds like I’m your kids’ \.\\.”
“New word.”
“Uh… companion animal.”
—————
Or
Grace and Rocky talk about evolution, family dynamics, and dogs.

Summary
"Speaking from a selfish perspective, I hope you stay. But, we also have another offer."
Ryland looks down at his best friend, eyebrow raised. Curiosity pushes the burgeoning tightness enough for him to ignore. "Yeah? What's that, Rock?"
"We can build onto the Hail Mary— a spaceship large enough to carry you, me, and other scientists. We go to Earth with you," Rocky trills. Ryland can't believe his ears. Rocky's carapace tilts in the way that means he's smiling. "We live on Earth, learn from the humans, and return in our own time."
✩✩✩✩
Or, Rocky offers to travel back to Earth with Grace. Featuring best mate Adrian
