    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.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    `Stop looking at me with that face, he wanted to beg, please stop looking at me like I’m going to hurt you. 

    “I thought you were just making fun of me,” Grace says through his tears, “but you don’t even know.” He’d backed all the way over to the wall, and was sliding down it like his legs had stopped cooperating, and Mark was seriously alarmed now, watching as Grace put his head in his hands and just shook.

    He rushed to him, ignoring Rocky’s warning rumble, like he cared about having his legs broken when Grace was on the floor making awful, choking noises.`

    Bookmarker's Notes

    `“Fuck,” he groans under his breath, and Ryland squirms. His too-sharp teeth gleam in the lab’s artificial light, and Ryland swallows loudly. “I’m going to touch you now,” Simon informs him, and Ryland jerks his hand in a shaky nod.

    “Okay,” Ryland’s voice kicks up in a squeak when Simon hooks his hand around his right knee – his touch burns, even through the fabric of his flight suit, and he hikes Ryland’s leg over his hip so their bodies slot together. Ryland fails, elbows wild, as he clutches at Simon with breathless desperation. His heart slams against his chest, as if to escape and make a home in Simon’s rib cage, and he digs his fingers into Simon’s shoulders until he groans.

    “That’s right, sweetheart,” Simon ducks down to press their foreheads together. “You just hold onto me.”`

    Summary

    "Mild sedation will be beneficial to avoid further damage.” Mary says, cool as a cucumber. Right. That sounds good. Great, even.

    And there was a needle coming towards me.

    Wait."
    ...

    Grace has made peace with not going home. Grace has made peace with his choice, and he would choose Rocky every time. Grace has not made peace with what happened to him before he left.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    `I needed him to understand. I needed him to understand. “When they asked me to join the mission, I told them no.”

    My chest ached. I took a breath that stuttered on the way in and on the way out, and the ache was still there.

    “Grace say no.” It was almost a question, but I couldn’t decipher his tone. I wasn’t sure I’d heard it before. “But Grace here.”

    I squeezed my arms tighter around myself, staring at the white board. `

    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?"

    Bookmarker's Notes

    `“Have you thought about names?” I ask. As I watch, the hatchling tips out of the bowl, finally sated, and takes a few curious steps in my direction. “Hi,” I whisper, and they chirp back a fluting note, wobbly with oncoming sleep. I hold my hand out, and the hatchling flops into my glove, dense and hot and trusting. “Oh, hi, baby.” Human biology is making me stupid. The hatchling doesn’t have any of the traits that mammals are genetically inclined to find adorable, and yet. I would die for this tiny thing. Sleep is the most vulnerable state the Eridians have, and the hatchling is falling asleep right in my palm.`

    Summary

    Lan Fan is staring at Father’s hand. “That is a Philosopher’s Stone,” she says.

    Father tilts his head at her again. “Yes, it is.”

    “Young lord,” she says, emphatically, sternly, “do not stop them. I will take this stone into myself and we will bring it home to Xing. Our clan will be saved.” She meets his eyes. “You will be king.”

    Bookmarker's Notes

    `Al opens his eyes and grins, devil-may-care and gentle. And Ed feels it, deep in his chest, that knife-wound of his brother’s missing smile, healing over in a half a second. “It worked,” he says, “didn’t it?”

    Ed tugs him, carefully, into a seated position, then pulls him, less carefully, into his arms. Al’s own skinny limbs reach up and hold him back, just as tightly. It must hurt, but neither of them care. Ed is sobbing into his little brother’s hair and Al is laughing into his shoulder and everything’s okay, everything’s okay, for once in their stupid fucking lives everything is gonna be okay.`
