    Summary

    It was, like all things between us, a process of trial and error, miscommunication and startling insight, joy and failure. Even the failures were a source of joy, as we learned more about each other, about what would bring pleasure, what would bring pain or discomfort, what we wanted from one another. Our species' sex practices were . . . not the same. But Grace could tap me, and I could stroke them, and in the end, we were similar in this way too, or similar enough. Grace's orgasms were amazing, both in their similarity to my own resonating peaks and in their differences, but when we had stroked and opened and rubbed and entered and knocked each other, we were both left wet: leaking and disgusting and satisfied. Grace is like Rocky, I thought, wonderingly, after our first time having sex together. Grace and Rocky are alike.

    Summary

    Grace had joked, occasionally, that they were a liquid and I was a solid, two completely different states of matter; it was a joke because it was an exaggeration, an overstatement. In reality, Grace had bones and teeth, and I had blood and steam, but we both enjoyed the pretense that we were more different than we were. It reminded us that our new friendship was something rare, something strange and special. Grace called themself a blob and called me a hunk of granite (a great insult that I was saving to use again on Erid), or they called themself a water balloon and called me a little mountain, or themself a puddle and me a pile of rocks: and they tilted at me, the human mouth tilt they called a smile, and that tilt always made me think again, lovingly, about the enormous odds against us ever having met.

    Stone and water, water and stone. That comparison, even as a joke, never failed to ring a bell deep inside of me. Because I would think about erosion, about the long slow beat of water against rock, and I would think about how the rock was always, in the end, consumed.

    Summary

    “I will fucking kill you!” Rocky roared, squeezing where his claws dug into Grace’s own. “You desecrated Grace’s memorial site—Savior of Erid Grace—and then you come into his home, an imposter, and trash his mementos-"

    “I am Grace!” Grace squeaked melodically.

    Rocky sucker punched him straight in the radiator.

    Summary


    Grace is a perfectly rational man. Eva Stratt is perfectly rational, too. She does not feel a sickening lump in her throat over this. It’s not hard at all, because she knows that what she is doing is right. She told him—she just didn’t think she would be sending him off into space when she did.

    It shouldn’t change anything. If it did, then she’s no better than any other selfish coward. What would be the point of destroying herself to organize the mission? She could have stayed a Beta.


    What is her health, her life, against the entire world? What is Ryland Grace’s life?


    He smells anxious. He smells sweet. He’s not her Omega, and she is not his Alpha.

    Or: Omegaverse AU. That one betrayal scene.
