    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.

    Summary

    "Rocky is..." Rocky paused. The sound he made was low, the Eridian equivalent of a long exhale, the kind that preceded news that was anything except good. "...not well."

    There was no such thing as a safe dose of radiation. No threshold below which you were one hundred percent safe.

    Summary

    "So. I somehow got shot into space, lost my memory, everyone else died, and this is what's going to haunt me?"

    Grace gestured wildly with the sticker.

    "My AO3 stats?!"

    It's not every day you wake up with five arms and no eyes, but Ryland Grace stopped having normal days a very long time ago.
