Summary
Adrian knows that everything is solvable if you break it down into the right sequence of steps.
The abrupt return of their long-dead partner in an alien spaceship has brought with it a series of absurd, worrying and even dangerous problems, but they're confident they can see the solution even if nobody else can.
They just need to make the alien fall in love with Rocky.

Living on a spaceship with an alien that exclusively speaks in song can really recontextualize karaoke for a guy.

It just gets weirder from there.

Summary
“You are crazy,” he says. “Crazy and stupid stupid stupid. Not same Grace I saved planets with.”
“Alright, Rock, I get—”
“Is not too much,” Rocky says firmly, leaning in until he’s nearly met my forehead, until my eyes go blurry with the task of adjusting to how close he is. I couldn’t even fit my glasses between us to put them on. “Hugs and cuddles through xenonite suit, only touch through many layers. Is not enough. Better to be under you skin, between you ribs. Hear you heart right up close, noisy, alive. I would prefer.”
"What?"
"What, question?"
/////
Grace is worried that Rocky secretly hates hugs. In an attempt to reassure him, Rocky says a bit too much.

Summary
“Not so strange,” Rocky says mildly. “Back in not-so-distant past Eridian eat other Eridian all the time. Top of food chain. After natural disaster, war, not so much else to eat. Ecosystem delicate, especially if carnivore, especially if big. 🎵🎶 good thing to have to fall back on.”
“Cannibalism,” I manage to get out.
“New word. Cannibalism.”

Summary
“INTEREST IN THE HICKEY POLYCULE HAS INCREASED TO THE POINT THAT IT IS NOW THE PRIMARY NARRATIVE FOCUS OF THE STORY,” the voice says. Can it be part of Francis’s own mind, if he has no idea what the bloody hell it’s on about?

Summary
Grace is put on cleaning duty and gets a mysterious fourth bag of vodka for his troubles.
Rocky begrudgingly takes on the role of Designated Driver slash Space Blob Supervisor, and receives a different kind of gift in return.
“Grace. What are you doing?”
Grace's mouth, still smushed against my xenonite, curves upward: Contentment, happiness, satisfaction. Interesting, that it should be prone to smiling when made stupid by ethanol, but not so much when it gets stupid because of a lack of sleep.
“‘s called a kiss, buddy. I‘m givin’ you. A kiss. ‘cause you're my best friend annnnd I like you. And y’nno what, you're actually pretty nice. When you’re not goin’ outta your way to be mean to me, that is.”
