    Summary

    “I wonder how things would be if we’d evolved on the same planet,” Grace says, leaning his forearms on his elevated knee. The one kept up by Rocky’s body. It puts even more weight on him, and Rocky feels the texture of Grace’s shoe through the xenonite, the bumps and ridges, the rocks and leaves stuck to the bottom. “You think we’d eat each other?”

    It takes every ounce of self control for Rocky to keep the noise he makes somewhat dignified. He kind of needs Grace to stop talking.

    /////

    Or: Rocky learns about persistence hunting, and it’s both the most terrified and the most aroused he’s ever been.

    Summary

    Rocky sings the tale of how he and Adrian met, fumbled, fell in love and finally became life-long mates despite coming from two completely different realities in Erid. Grace fails to see the similarities between their story to his own’s meeting, fumbling, falling in love and — who knows — becoming life-long mates with Rocky.

    "For never was a story of more mirth
    Than of Juliet, Romeo and the Mercy of Earth."

    Grace has ADHD around Rocky. Grace has a solution.

    At least, he thinks he does.

    This goes about as well as expected.

    Summary

    Ryland spread his arms in a grand gesture. “Ta-da! You can take the bed. I’ll sleep on the couch.”
    He went to walk past Rocky, but Rocky stopped him with a hand on his chest. “It’s your house, you take the bed.”
    Ryland was already shaking his head. “No, no, no you’re the guest! You take the bed.”
    “Ry, get in the bed.”
    Rocky tried to be firm, and it made Ryland pause. Something changed in his eyes as he stared back at Rocky. The drunken haze seemed to lift, leaving behind an intensity that made Rocky’s face flush. Suddenly the contact of his hand on Ryland’s chest was too much. Too tense. Before he could pull away, Ryland pressed a hand over his.
    “Say it nicer.”
    Rocky swallowed. “What?”
    “Say it nicely. Say please.”

    Or,
    A continuation of the last piece in this series. A human Rocky and an Eridian Grace end up in an alternate universe where their species are swapped. Now they're roommates with this alternate version of their best friend until a solution can be found. Human-Rocky has a lot of feelings about human-Grace.
