Summary
“Let’s recap then- You admit that you and Charles Leclerc have been involved in a sexual relationship for the past two years. You describe this as a ‘long-term, exclusive, friends with benefits’ arrangement, in which you estimate you usually sleep with him at least twice a week. Oh, and in your own words, it’s 'complicated'. Does that cover everything you want to tell me Max?”
“Oh for fuck’s sake- yes, Gemma, that’s everything. Now will you please tell me what the fuck is going on?"
“I will, but I have one last question...When did you and Charles film the sex tape?”
.
.
or: Max and Charles’ sex tape is leaked to the paddock. The violation of privacy is almost as terrible as the way it forces them to confront their feelings. -

Summary
Getting settled on a new planet has all kinds of ups and downs, Ryland Grace knows this. Eridian's are very different, not to mention simply their method of speech.
Grace may have forgotten to mention that some forms of sound, sudden and sharp, are painful to humans. It never came up, and after nearly a year on Erid, it had sort of slipped his mind. Not to mention, being on a space craft for nearly five years must have brought an issue like this to light, but it seems that he and Rocky had just gotten lucky.
The alternative, the pain of new sounds is discovered the hard way, with a bit too much blood as a result.

Summary
The Hail Mary has been shot out into the depths of the infinite void of space to search for an answer that may not even be there. Aboard, the three crew members lay in stasis as the ship hurtles like an arrow towards a distant star, with no hope of return, but a desperate hope to make things right.
At home, two brothers are left in sudden and violent grief. A woman grapples with whether or not she made the right decision. The world strains and suffers under the weight of the coming Fimbulwinter.
And then one of the beetles returns.
Thirteen years early.

Summary
As he stared down into the lumpy grey goop that was his evening rations, he contemplated whether it was really worth it.
They’d come a very long way just for Grace to give up and die at the last hurdle, both physically and emotionally. The Tau Ceti system was a long, long way away now, and Grace had faced not one but two highly emotional suicide missions. Three, if you counted the time before he was given a military grade roofie and hucked into space without his memories.
Rocky and Grace make it back to Erid! Huzzah!
Now they have to navigate all of... that. -

Summary
“Who complained about you eating, question?” Someone must’ve said something. He’s had so many visitors in the last couple of days. Who was it? Grace has never questioned this part of himself. Grace huffs at me.
“No one! I’m just trying to be polite! Eridians have special soundproof eating rooms, shouldn’t I?”
“You are not Eridian!”
He doesn’t need to meet our standards; he’s his own species! Some things he might need to change in his daily life to adapt to Erid life, but his food habits don’t need to be one of them. My words don’t comfort Grace like I thought they would. Grace shrinks into himself, and I wish I were on his side to hug him.
or the Entities provide Grace with a culture teacher to prepare for life on Erid and he gets his first taste of Eridian inhospitality.

Summary
This is all Rocky's fault. He was stupid, stupid, stupid. How could he be so stupid and let this happen? Between the two of them, Grace was supposed to be the stupid one, not Rocky.
They were supposed to be okay, fine. Rocky and Grace saved the stars, saved Earth and Erid, saved humans and eridians. Rocky helped Grace and Grace helped Rocky. Then Grace saved Rocky. So Rocky had to save Grace.
Now they're supposed to be safe and fine.
But Grace isn't fine. Not at all. And it's all his fault.
Or, Grace accidentally comes into contact with Erid bacteria and gets sick, Rocky (understandably) panics

Summary
Rocky is a good dancer, which I already knew. He has good coordination, which is kind of necessary when you have five arms, and he has amazing memory. There's only so much he can do with my clumsy footwork, though.
"You are messing up rhythm," he scolds, though his voice has no bite.
"Am not," I snap, even though I totally am.
"You say rhythm strong weak weak. But you take step strong weak strong strong weak. Irregular. You only have two legs and you still cannot coordinate, question?"
I didn't think first contact would involve this much bullying. "You're so mean to me."

Summary
Jesus, my back.
I pause, gasping for breath — I'm genuinely sweating. And embarrassed. I wonder if Rocky can hear me losing to a slab of wood.
God, I hope he can't. Please God.
It's stuck behind a few empty crates and some miscellaneous spare lab supplies. A few beakers. A blender, for some reason. An ironing board. Why? Because go to hell, Ryland Grace, that's why. You can't have enough fuel to come back but you can have an ironing board with no iron. Here's two kilos of cement-flavoured coma slurry. Kill yourself.
"I'm being dramatic," I tell myself aloud.
I'm really not. Dying in space is a very dramatic situation.
The ways that Rocky and Grace miss everything all the time, yet watch over each other, always.

Summary
“Hey! It’s a lot up here, okay? It’s a normal response to stress.” He rubs a hand over his face. “Okay, I cried a lot down there, too. But not in class! Not if I could help it. But having to say goodbye, gosh, I’ve never been good at that.” Grace laughs, but it sounds sad. His mouth is shut firmly, and he leans against my ball. He’s so soft, his body melds to the side of the xenonite with ease. “I can’t imagine what a mess I’ll be when—” he cuts himself off, but I know what was coming next.
I’m not sure how I’ll be when we say goodbye either. It didn’t seem like it’d matter so much at first, after all, if we part ways, it means we succeeded. I’d be going back to Erid, to Adrian, to home. But I’d be leaving behind Grace. The thought of that is unpleasant. It sinks deep in me; the emotion is painfully familiar. It’s been a long time since I’ve had anyone to mourn losing anyone again. I don’t want to think about it, I’m not ready.
or 5 times Rocky feels something for Grace. 1 time he does something about it.

"Humans put Eridians in game, question?"
"You mean, like a spider?" I ask. "Are you seeing a spider?"
"Not spider," Rocky says. "Four legs. Tall carapace."
"What color is it?"
"Middle-rough."
Middle-rough. That's Eridian for green.
"Strange sound," Rocky comments.
The creeper explodes.
Grace and Rocky play Minecraft. That's it that's the fic

Summary
"Hey...can I ask you something kind of weird?"
"Shoot," Rocky says, his voice sounding amused. "But not actually shoot."
Grace wants to laugh at the joke (he's been getting better at joking and sarcasm) but instead he swallows, his fingers tracing idle patterns on the blanket. The ache from earlier at the classroom, the beach, the constant invisible wall feels closer tonight.
"What does it feel like... to touch you?" he asks. "I mean, if we could. Your carapace. Your claws. What would it feel like to me?"
Rocky is quiet for a long beat. When he sings again, his melody is thoughtful and gentle.
"Hard. Rocky, like name. Like...strong stone that is alive. My claws are sharp but careful. My body pulses a little when I am happy. Like singing Grace can feel instead of hear." He pauses, then adds with a soft, almost shy trill, "What does human skin feel like, question? To me, I wonder."
He imagines it.
In his mind, the xenonite shell vanishes.
Or: Grace is touch starved and Rocky wants to make it better

Summary
“Oh,” I sigh, rubbing still-shaking hands across my stubbly face because oh, that was so close. Too close. We were supposed to be done with the theatrics, with the life-and-death bullhonkey.
What the heck, universe? Not cool.
I don’t want to move for a bit. The siren song of dissociation calls my name, and honestly, I’m so, so chill with just sitting here for a second and decompressing and trying to remember all the breathing techniques I learned for my students, butー
But the lights are still flashing red, flashing with urgency and Mary is saying something and I have to drag my mind, kicking and screaming, back to focusー
“-ected. Toxic gas in Laboratory detected. Toxic gas in Laboratory-” Mary drones, and once it clicks into place the cold sweat is backー
Oh god noー
The banging noise. The gas leak. The lab.
Rocky.
