    Summary

    The Eridian thrills a high sound that doesn’t get picked up by the translator which means that it has no clear meaning. Like when a human gasps or sucks in a deep breath. It actually sounds a little like that. When they notice that I’m staring straight at them they scramble back into their hiding spot and hold very still. 

    A child, I realize with a start.

    That’s a child! 

    “Hey,” I call and the kid squeaks again. I was about to get to my feet but abort the movement and crawl closer on my hands and knees until I'm inches away from the xenonite wall. I wait and it takes me much too long to realize that they don’t have to peek around the corner to see if I’m still there.

    “Hey there,” I try again, my voice low and calm. It’s my teacher voice, the one I use for shy and scared students. 

    Used. 

    The fact that I haven’t had to use it for years and it still comes to me automatically almost knocks the air out of my lungs but this is not about me, it’s about making sure the little pebble doesn’t die of fright from the scary alien. “Hi, I’m Grace. It’s alright, you don’t have to be scared.”

    Summary

    Grace knew that there were going to be cultural differences between Eridians and humans.

    Rocky knew this, too, but no matter how foolish humans could be, even the densest of them knew this was courting, right? Right??

    -
    AKA Grace keeps doing things that Rocky percieves as courting (per Eridian traditions) and is entirely clueless about it

    Summary

    The scene at Crypto Night goes a little differently when Robert goes into labor early.

    -~-~-~-~-

    Or, what's more terrifying and traumatizing than giving birth alone? Giving birth with only the guy you maimed, humiliated, and arrested there to help, of course!

    I was going to figure out a shorter title and have the current one as a joking "alternate title" thing, but it's hilarious so I kept it.
