Summary
“This is a spell to make things explode, question?” Rocky asks and Grace has to resist the urge to bow his head like he’s being scolded by his grandmother. “And you are using astrophage? Astrophage already makes things explode. You do not need magic to do that. You do not need this spell.”
“Well, it’s not the spell itself that’s important,” Grace lies, marking out distances to make sure everyone stays clear of the expected blast radius. “It’s a proof of concept really. I wanted to see if I could substitute spell components with astrophage. I think some people back on Earth were working on that, but all the astrophage we could make went to the Hail Mary so it was mostly theoretical.”
“Right. And there’s no other spell that you could try to use astrophage?”
Honestly, Grace could probably try to use this for Dancing Lights. “Nope.”
so life on erid if pretty sweet and grace has thrown himself into both his scientific and magical studies in ways that will cause perhaps several intergalactic incidents
featuring: misty step, fireball, feather fall, polymorph, laika the fox familiar, the Sacred Thrum, and more!

Summary
Rocky darted out of the way. The door shut with a decisive whirr-click.
The endless glug-thud-squelch of Ryland Grace's body seemed very loud in the small room. He made a noise that sounded like, "Huh?"
"Grace and Adrian talk now," Rocky commanded. They pointed one arm at them. "Talk until both normal."
"What?" Adrian said, baffled.
Rocky clattered several claws against the ground, a discord of pique. "You are both annoying! Always polite, polite, polite. Bland. Empty."In which Adrian and Grace haven't really been getting along, and Rocky takes matters into his own claws.

Summary
Every screen in the room blazed with the same breaking news feed. An alien voice had just asked for him by name on live television.
“Mr. Grace?” little Jamal whispered from the front row, eyes huge behind his glasses. “Is that really you they’re talking about? Like, you you?”
Ryland’s mouth opened, but nothing came out. His heart slammed against his ribs like it wanted to escape and hide under the desk with the class hamster. He was just Mr. Grace. The guy who drew cartoon planets on the board, who stayed late helping kids glue together messy dioramas of the solar system, who once spent an entire lunch period comforting a sobbing girl because her goldfish had “gone to the great fishbowl in the sky.” He graded spelling tests on vocabulary words like photosynthesis and asteroid. Aliens did not know his name. Aliens did not ask for science teachers.
The marker slipped from his fingers and clattered to the floor.

Summary
“What are you talking about?” Grace's fingers played quick chords as he spoke. He didn’t even look as he did it, but it did not make them any less purposeful.
“Discussing possible reasons why Tau Ceti is not infected while other stars are,” Eva replied deftly. “I would invite you to join, but we were just finishing—”
“Oh, that’s easy.” His hand twisted a knob, and the notes came out sharper. “It is infected—Petrova Line and everything.”
In Grace's opinion, dreaming about time traveling is no excuse for getting out of practice with his Eridian. To the rest of the Petrova Taskforce, it seems a bit odd that their resident Astrophage expert has suddenly taken to carrying a keyboard around and playing it whenever he speaks. Eva Stratt resolves to figure out what is going on.
