Summary
“Friend Grace, question?”
Rocky’s melodious voice is quiet, uncertain.
He probably can’t tell if I’m awake or asleep.
And, honestly, neither can I. The hallucinations and psychosis are almost impossible for me to decipher from reality. Rocky might not even be here at all.
Just in case, I offer a weak hum. Just in case Rocky is here. Just in case I’m not dead.
Am I dead?

Summary
"Grace’s first observation was that Rocky was warm. It was probably the sole thing his stupid hindbrain had latched onto. Warm meant fire. Fire meant food. So really, why wouldn’t it? There were other things— infinitely more important things— to notice. Like how, for instance, Rocky wasn’t putting his entire weight onto Grace. Any force he applied was carefully measured and calculated to make sure that Grace didn’t get crushed by the weight.
But, most importantly, Rocky was warm, especially under a fully luminous sun."
[OR]
Grace's touch-starved subconscious conjures up a dream about hugging Rocky. Rocky sees what unfiltered sobbing looks like for the first time. He panics accordingly.

Faithful (should I go on with no further trace of you?) by pleniluneheron

Summary
Rocky had fallen in love with Grace long ago. There were many reasons, even now, not to act on this love. Telling Grace would likely make it uncomfortable and add stress to its already very stressful short life. Their journey to Erid would last under four Earth years, which is practically nothing in the grand scheme of things. Rocky would soon be reunited with all his friends and family, and of course, his lovely bond mate.
All this to say, it would be an unspeakably stupid, selfish, illogical decision to approach Grace romantically. A decision Rocky knows he would regret for the remaining 300 years of his life. He knows he will regret it, and so he makes peace with keeping it to himself. He loves being Grace’s dearest friend. That’s plenty enough to quiet the voices in his head.
One day, while watching Grace sleep, he learns that Grace reciprocates his feelings.

wrong as rain by rockandrollinator

Summary
“I'm good. Just have a slight headache,” Grace muttered, knowing he wasn’t fooling Rocky by insisting he was totally and completely fine, “Gonna get some medication in me, lay down for a few minutes, then I’ll be right as rain.”
“Grace said body was good. Head pain was not mentioned. Rocky no understand rain statement; explain, question?”
Rocky rolled behind Grace as he started back toward the medbay, resigned to his fate as another pulse of pain shot through his skull. He tried to shake it off, clearing his throat, “Right as rain means…uh, ‘good as new,’ I guess? Does that make sense?”
He stumbled over a discarded jumpsuit on the floor, hissing when his already bruised knees dug into the metal floor. God, he was really stupid like this, huh?
“Grace wrong as rain now.”
(Grace has a migraine, Rocky helps as best as he can.)
