    Summary

    The first time he feels the terror, he doesn't understand why. As he barely hangs onto consciousness, the soft silicon presses against his face, enveloping his nose and mouth. The spark of terror catches fire in his chest and quickly spreads across his body. It ignites a screaming inferno within his skull. He forces his eyes open. Everything is red. There's shapes above him. Pure oxygen fills his airways, stale and clinical and familiar and wrong.
    Grace's memories of his unwilling medical sedation and forced sacrifice return, vivid and violent. Later, on the journey back to save Rocky, he has night terrors. The thin lines between consciousness, unconsciousness, memory, and nightmare blur.

    Summary

    “Oh! I- I was looking at the Taumoeba on the reverse microscope. Observing how they move, counting the population.”

    “This tell Grace what, question?”

    I shrugged.

    “Not that much. Population is something I’m only trying to figure out for the sake of marking a… sample size; it’s a bit more difficult, since when I did work in the wet lab, it was mostly on bacteria, and we can’t exactly… count CFU for these guys. Once I have that, we can try looking at modifying them properly. I think the first step would be to mark sort of an… an MIC of nitrogen (...)” I sighed, pressing my glasses back upon my nose. “I’m gonna start on some more useful things in a second, but classical microbiology is sometimes just… fun.”

    A beat.

    “Grace use a lot of words and Rocky understand about half of them.”

    ***

    Ryland Grace is a scentist, and so experiments he must do—they have to figure out how to breed nitrogen-resistant Taumoeba, after all.

    It's a shame the lab was arranged by someone with not a lot of experience in the wet lab.

    It's also a shame if he'll never get to talk to Eridian scientists about their sience.

    Summary

    “Federal court?” Phoenix said, blankly, for the third time, and this time, Edgeworth, sounding distinctly less sympathetic, said, “Surely you’ve heard of it.”

    Summary

    “Oh, it’s a way for humans to tell each other they’re taken. To remember,” I say, popping a bunch more gummy bears into my mouth. Rocky makes a disgusted sound and I smile as I chew. “It’s just a nice way of showing they have someone they committed to.”

    Rocky freezes. I don’t notice for a good few seconds, not until I get the pressing sensation that he’s staring at me, his lack of eyes irrelevant.

    I turn to face him. He’s jittering, something like shaking from excitement or anger, I’m not sure.

    “Rocky?” I ask.

    Grace have ring,” he points, and oh no.Grace have mate? Why Grace no say!?

    I hold up my hands before he can get too excited, though I can already hear a familiar sound, a repeating joyful and confused song start to escape from him.

    “No, no, no!” he freezes again. Deflates, a little. I sigh and run a hand down my face. “It’s… complicated.”
