    Summary

    “Will you tell me what happened?” Colt asks quietly, studying Ryland’s sleeping face. He wishes he would wake up and just look at him, but— but, until then, he’ll settle for talking to his— to Rocky.

    “Grace come back for Rocky after return plan for Earth,” Rocky says. His translated voice feels like it’s coming from right beside him. “Grace not let Rocky die. Grace give life for Rocky life. Grace…” He makes a soft, sad chime of a sound. “Grace save Rocky. Grace save Erid, Grace brave, brave, brave, statement. Rocky love Grace. Rocky save Grace.”

    “You did that?” Colt asks him, glancing sideways at Rocky. “You gave up everything, you— you gave up going home just to bring him back here?”

    “Grace do same for Rocky.”

    or: Colt's twin brother was taken from him and shot off into space without a chance to say goodbye. Over the years, piece by piece, he gets Ryland back.

    Summary

    Rocky doesn’t get it. He’ll never get it.

    That’s unfair to Rocky, really, because of course his alien best friend doesn’t get it. He has different customs, different ideas of pro-social behavior, and the glaringly obvious issue of the fact that Ryland can’t seem to open his mouth and just tell him what’s wrong. It’s not Rocky’s fault, but eventually he has to tell him to “just go away,” because Rocky’s behavior is reminding him too much of the way he acted while Colt was recovering from his back injury.

    Colt. His brother. He has a brother. A twin, in fact.

    Or, well, he had one. That’s the problem.

    Summary

    Eva feels like the breath is knocked out of her lungs when the man walks in.

    Dirty blond hair. Blue eyes. Sort of like… if Ryland Grace was hit by a car several times. It was undeniably him.

    “So you’re Eva Stratt,” The man says gruffly, slamming both hands on her desk. He looked exactly like Ryland, it was terrifying. It felt like watching a ghost haunt her in real life.

    “You’re the crazy woman that sent my baby brother up into space. Let’s talk, yeah?”

    or

    Colt Seavers finds out his twin brother was sent on a suicide mission. He does not take it well.
