    Summary

    46 years.

    That’s how long Rocky spent alone, hiding in his workshop, making useless gadgets to add to his ship, repeating the same calculations over and over until they made him sick. Never once stepping a claw outside, refusing to face the reality of his dead crew and a failed mission. Doing nothing, wasting away, betraying everyone who had faith in his mission, betraying Adrian.

    A coward.

    Grace’s fragile heart flutters in a desperate attempt to force blood around his broken body.

    Rocky will not die a coward.

    Or, Rocky’s POV of Time Go Fishing

    Summary

    Grace's journey to Erid is long and taxing. 4 whole years spent on the Hail Mary by Rocky's side has inevitably brought them closer together, despite the last year mostly consisting of Grace trying his very best not to die and keep himself from throwing up taumoeba into the bathroom. It’s only after his body has stopped fighting desperately for his life that his mind has the time to catch up on everything that has happened with Rocky…and on Earth without him. It doesn’t help that he’s going to be the only human on a planet of Eridians and that his best friend’s mate doesn’t seem to like him much at all.

    Or

    Ryland Grace tries his best to begin to live again rather than just be alive, balancing his severe attachment to Rocky and helping to fix Rocky’s marriage to a frustrated Adrian.

    Summary

    So Grace does what he does best: he talks.

    “I-I was planning to switch to a lighter, less calorie dense diet, y’know? Just to- just to lose some weight so I could look good and fit into my clothe—“

    “Grace already looks good,” Rocky interrupts. He stops poking and shifts his entire body so that his carapace is now pressed up against Grace’s side. He holds back the urge to whimper at how good the warmth feels on his bare skin, the only thing dividing them being a thin barrier made of xenonite.

    Sometimes, Grace wishes he could touch Rocky without anything in between them. He thinks it would feel perfect, except for the whole ammonia-slash-oxygen thing.

    Just when he thought it couldn’t get worse, Rocky continues, “don’t need to lose weight. Grace is beautiful.”

    or; Rocky figures out how to make human food taste like Earth food for Grace. Anything for Grace.

    Summary

    Rocky was waiting for Grace,” he eventually answered. “For many years.

    “So…you think I might be onto something?”

    Yes.” Rocky placed one of his claws against the glass. “Meant to meet. Grace knew it too.

    As if on autopilot, Grace lay his palm against the other side.

    Grace head not in clouds. Grace head near Tau Ceti.

    ~~~

    Just Grace, Rocky and their love-filled days in outer space.
