Summary
“If you could be any astronomical object, what kind of astronomical object would you be and why?”
“Rocky cannot be astronomical object. Rocky can only be Eridian.”
“Humor me, pal, I’m dying of boredom over here.”(or, snapshots of the fourteen days that Rocky and Grace spent making the chain in orbit around Adrian)

Day 9.5:
“I think if we were astronomical bodies, we’d be binary stars.”
“Agreement.”
Day 9.51:
“But Rocky would be bigger, better, more beautiful star.”
“You know what? Yeah, sure, why not. Agreement.” -

So, he has pigment. And he has many, many rocks and walls. Many which he has tried to climb. Because at the end of the day, he is still a primate.

Summary
"Rocky did not understand human names and titles when we met. Eridian names longer, give information on Eridian's home, associations, skills." For the first time in ages, he positioned two of his arms together, forming the design that Grace thought of like a family crest, a single design bisected.
"You should teach me to read those before we get to Erid, so I can be polite." As Grace considered the linework, already picking up on some vague ideas from the shapes in Rocky's carapace, something else occurred to him. "So… I picked 'Rocky' because your outer shell looks like stone."
"And for inspirational story of athlete who defeats human system of poverty to become great champion. Eye of the tiger."
"Retroactively, yeah." Grace bent at the hips, getting to Rocky's 'eye' level. "So what'd you name me?"

Summary
“How much did you read?”
“Lot,” Rocky says, and it sounds vaguely like a child caught with their hand in the cookie jar. “Mary?”
“Wait, you don’t need-” I try to interrupt him bringing the ship into this (she gets involved in our spars enough as is) but I’m too late.
“Touch-starvation. Also referred to as touch-hunger. Side-effects include aggressive behaviours, impairment in speech or communication, lowered self-esteem, increasing anxiety, depression, and self-injurious activities-”
“Okay!” I clap my hands, cutting her off. “Thank you, Mary, but that’s enough!”

Bookmarker's Notes
“Yes yes yes, human touch,” he croons, and if I didn’t know any better I’d think he seems a little smug about the fact that he’s the exception here. But I do know better, so I can tell he’s absolutely smug about it.

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.
