    Summary

    In the aftermath of the arrival of the Hail Mary, Adrian becomes used to it. Polite, not unkind deferrals. Occasional rejections, stiffly sung, claws stamped firmly in a simple, no. Not today. Perhaps not for a long time, Adrian. You have a mate to take care of.

    Adrian would love to take care of their mate. Adrian cannot tell their community that Rocky is still high above them, still in the spaceship that houses the sick, dying alien Rocky refuses to leave. Adrian will take care of Rocky when they return, but they have not yet returned, and so there is nobody for Adrian to care for at all.

    Adrian has waited four hundred and thirty-one years for their mate. Their mate, upon returning to them, has an alien. Adrian will adjust. Just like they always have.

    Summary

    Grace flexes its jaw, shifts the marker towards one corner of its mouth, then removes the marker without actually consuming it. It makes a sharp pop as it leaves Grace's mouth, brightening the tubing in Grace's nose.

    "I've got it reversed," Grace decides.

    I unfreeze enough to let out a loud and pointed noise of disgust.

    "Yeah, sorry buddy. This isn't exactly my wheelhouse."

    Without acknowledging the aborted attempt to eat the marker, nor wiping it's digestive fluids off of it, Grace taps the square it paused over again.

    "This is actually a second cousin," It says.

    I decide not to ask.

    -

    Or: The road to Erid is long. Rocky spends it slowly figuring out what it means to be human, and how Grace muddles along through it.
