    Summary

    I lived with this hunger long before the Hail Mary. This is nothing new. I’m fine.

    Right up until Rocky asks another question.

    “When last time you touch other human person skin, question?”

    Oh. Oh no. “When I… a few days after I first woke up here.”

    Rocky starts to relax for a split second, but then tightens when something occurs to him.

    “Grace crewmates dead when you wake up. You said this, statement. You not even know your own name, remember nothing, see dead bodies, confirm?”

    I nod, because if I open my mouth I will gag.

    “When last time Grace touch ALIVE human person, question.”

    I swallow thickly. I don’t answer aloud because I know Rocky can hear the hitch in my breath. My stomach churns with fresh bile. He senses my vital signs tick over into stress patterns and goes very, very still again.

    “Grace. When last time, question.”

    I clench my jaw so hard my temples ache, and beg him with my eyes to just stop.

    “Grace. Please say not when… when Evil Stratt humans put you to sleep.”

    I can taste grass.

    Summary

    "Come on, show me your masterpiece," Grace said, feeling helplessly charmed. "What's it about?"

    "Is proposal," Rocky said.

    "Oh yeah?" Grace smiled. He stretched his arms up, reaching until his spine popped. Maybe taking a break from his experiments was the right call after all. "Sounds exciting. What are you proposing?"

    "Propose Grace Rocky get married," Rocky said.

    Grace twitched violently, fell sideways off the viewing platform, and banged his elbow hard into DGCR screen six.

     

    Rocky and Grace watch a movie and talk about their friendship. Also they love each other to the ends of the infinite, expanding universe.

    Summary

    Ash snaps his eyes open and feels himself floating in a strange place. He spots PIkachu in a similar position just feet away.
    Everywhere around them was black, but not the type of black where it was dark. More empty. Illuminated yet empty.
    How'd he even get here? He was asleep just minutes ago. He looks down at his clothes to find that he is still wearing his pajamas. His yellow PIkachu shirt was in quite a contrast to the bleak all around them.
    Then there was light.

    or
    Ash is the protagonist of Legends Arceus.

    Summary

    Ash seemed determined to stay in Alola, and Kukui had a loft going to waste. He'd boarded students before; he didn't expect anything special out of the experience. As it turns out, Ash isn't the only one who's going to be learning a lot this year.

    Snippets and fragments of life during Ash's stay in Alola.
