    A really sweet way to explain how Grace got the little Rocky figurine.

    Summary

    “I’m… not a girl. I’m uhm, I’m a trans guy.”

    The room is silent for a moment. I can see her shaking as she waits for me to respond.

    “Okay! Thank you for telling me,” I said, calmly. I was a bit out of my depth here. I’ve had queer kids before, of course, but having one come out to me like this was a new experience.

    She– he blinks at me, clearly surprised at my anticlimactic reaction. Should I have been more surprised? Enthusiastic? I don’t know how to respond in this situation. I didn’t want to freak him out by freaking out, but what if that was what he wanted? This has got to be a big deal for him. Do I seem uninterested? Crap!

    OR

    One of Grace's students comes out to him.

    Summary

    “…Did not think you’d notice.” He finally said, slumping a little. “Did not want you to notice-“

    “In what world would I have missed it, bud?” Grace huffed with an exasperated smile, nudging into Rocky’s side. “You’re the highlight of my day, y’know.”

    Rocky let out a happy chirp, seemingly involuntarily. He hunched in on himself after, as if embarrassed the sound had escaped him at all, and shuffled his legs a little in the sand.

    “As are you of mine.”

    or: rocky gets a new engraving, and grace is much more involved than he ever thought he could be

    A beautiful Eridian ceremony to show how unique Rocky and Grace’s relationship is. Grace is such a cornball and I love it.

    Summary

    Rocky’s new suit opens up a whole new world of interactivity within the small bubble that is The Hail Mary.
    It makes everything a little bit easier to deal with (a little bit easier to fix).

    Or

    5 times Rocky helps out Grace with his newfound ability to touch things around him, and 1 time touching Grace is the thing that helps the most.

    (Previously titled “Rocky Can Touch, Question?”)

    Brilliant showing of Rocky’s love language being acts of service. Each act follows the last one perfectly.

    Summary

    “Robot,” Yào calls out. “How long — how long was I asleep?”

    The robot whirrs. “You have been in a medically induced coma for — one hundred — eighty — one — days,” it reports.

    Yào’s not as quick at theoretical maths as Dr. Grace or Ilyukhina, but he’s pretty handy with the normal stuff. One hundred and eighty-one days is … just shy of six months. He runs the numbers again, counts them out slower in his head. It’s the same result.

    It’s not enough time. It’s not nearly enough time. It’s not even enough time to be completely out of their fucking solar system.

    Yào wakes up early.

    Absolutely brilliant characterization of Yào. Really makes him a real person and not someone else who was there to just be lost.
