    Summary

    The room is too clean. The air is too clean. Simon has never seen any part of any COI ship or station that isn’t covered in a layer of grease and rust and filth. None of the manufacturing looks anything like he’s seen before. The COI wouldn’t have these sorts of supplies. Eden certainly didn’t. They wouldn’t waste valuable machinery making a robot to sew up stitches. They wouldn’t have Grace with his bright, new clothes and his warm smile and…

    Suddenly the far away walls are closing in on him. Suddenly the sweet smelling air is much too thick.

    Simon clenches his fist around the sheet beneath him, bracing himself as well as he can against the bed as his heart pounds in his ears.

    “Where the fuck am I?” he demands.
    ***
    AKA showing Simon things he's never seen before!

    Summary

    “Stop, command!” Rocky yelped through his other noises. He was definitely saying things, but nothing was coming through translatable to Grace’s ears.
    “Shit, sorry Rocky,” Grace tucked the whistle away. Obviously, the noise it was making was bothering his friend, weird. He wondered if it was the same effect on dogs or something entirely different yet still unpleasant. “Does it hurt? The noise, question?”
    Rocky shook his carapace and settled his body. He seemed . . . rung out from the noise. If that was even possible. “Not hurt . . . just . . .” Rocky seemed to struggle finding a word.

     

    Or: Grace finds a dog whistle, and uses it on Rocky

    Summary

    “What are you talking about?” Grace's fingers played quick chords as he spoke. He didn’t even look as he did it, but it did not make them any less purposeful.

    “Discussing possible reasons why Tau Ceti is not infected while other stars are,” Eva replied deftly. “I would invite you to join, but we were just finishing—”

    “Oh, that’s easy.” His hand twisted a knob, and the notes came out sharper. “It is infected—Petrova Line and everything.”

    In Grace's opinion, dreaming about time traveling is no excuse for getting out of practice with his Eridian. To the rest of the Petrova Taskforce, it seems a bit odd that their resident Astrophage expert has suddenly taken to carrying a keyboard around and playing it whenever he speaks. Eva Stratt resolves to figure out what is going on.

    Summary

    Rocky and Grace are so impossibly different form each other that a conventional sexual relationship isnt attainable in the slightest. But their pull for one another is too strong to pay much mind to that fact.
    How can two aliens who can't even touch each other have sex? They're going to figure that out. For science? For love? Maybe a strange and exciting combination of both.
