    Summary

    “Here? Here? Here?” He's not testing anymore. The little rascal has my body figured out and he goes for all my ticklish spots. Even through this new discovery, he's being careful not to hurt me.

    “Get-” I choke out through bubbling laughter, “Get off!”

    I try to push up, but he puts a limb on my back, pushing me down harder. I can't get up.

    The laughter dies.

    I can't get up.

    Summary

    Grace holds it in its hands and Rocky feels a surge of -

    - well, insanity, pure, simple insanity that grips him by all five limbs, the urge to knock something over or dig his claws into the sand or ask for Grace's attention all the time, forever, every time -

    Rocky wants to give Grace a gift. You know, as a morale booster, since it's starting its job soon. There are no ulterior motives at hand - or, well, claw.

    Summary

    [What does hand flex mean, question?] Rocky asks from where we're huddled together on the floor, watching the 2005 adaption of Pride & Prejudice.

    "It's uh—" I hit pause, search for the right word. "Have we had yearning in the vocab yet?"

    Summary

    I am still plenty busy. I have been busy ever since I volunteered to set off on an unexplored, desperate trek to save our planet. There is always something to be done. I have learned, too, that it helps my mind to stop wandering places I do not want to go. I must be constantly alert. I don’t allow myself the question for how long.

    Or:
    As Grace and Adrian work on Rocky's surprise, he struggles to stop and think about how he has been affected by his crew's death.

    Summary

    “Is this like the unicorn thing?” Grace hadn’t anticipated Rocky becoming grief-stricken after learning unicorns are a myth, but he had been devastated. “Ghosts are just another one of those silly human things we made up.”

    “But… Rocky want ghosts to be real.”
