    Summary

    Ryland’s life on Erid had started to settle, once the Eridian scientists figured out the pesky food situation to keep the leaky space blob alive. It had been a slow, but steady, recovery from near starvation, but with an overly concerned mate hovering over him, Ryland pulled through. Halfway through his recovery, Ryland finally got to meet Adrian again after a brief encounter once the biodome was constructed. It was a little awkward, for him at least, but Adrian didn’t seem upset that Rocky had chosen him as a mate too. Something about the differing customs between Human and Eridian mating habits, Ryland was just grateful he wasn’t being labeled a homewrecker. The big surprise was when he’d noticed a couple months after that encounter that Adrian was displaying what he’d learned through Rocky was Eridian Courting rituals with him, too.

    Rocky was thrilled, and Ryland never thought he could be loved by one person, let alone two. Everything was perfect, except for the one subject he refused to broach. But it wasn’t important, until it was.

    Ryland could never have one good thing for very long, could he?

    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

    Sometimes, when he was alone and the silence was loud enough to amplify his thoughts, he could admit that he feared it. Feared touch. Feared sex. Feared intimacy and all it implied.

    ‘No’ had never meant anything when he was small.

    Why would it mean anything now?

    Summary

    "But Grace have sex in crew quarters sometimes."

    "That's not— you shouldn't—" Grace shakes his head. He knows Rocky doesn't mean to make him uncomfortable. Heck, Grace's biggest problem at the moment is that the knowledge of Rocky watching him doesn't make him uncomfortable. Not in the way it probably should. "It's not really sex. Since I'm by myself when I…" he trails off and hopes that's the end of it.

    "Rocky is here when Grace have not-sex."

    "No, I mean—" Grace sighs and tries not to pull out his hair. "It's only me. Touching myself. You don't touch me."

    Rocky sinks back on his hind legs and goes quiet in a way that Grace recognizes as careful thought. Stony fingers click together and drum against the aluminum composite flooring. When Rocky speaks next Grace nearly falls off his stool.

    "Grace let Rocky touch, question?"
