    Summary

    When the new human started asking for Grace, the Eridians did everything in their power to accommodate.
    Grace was waiting on the other side, flanked by a pair of Eridians he named Quartz and Ruby. He wrung his hands, an anxious tick that the handlers recognize, as the entourage with their new human entered.
    The new human startled at seeing Grace. His eyes darted around the biosphere, but they always ended up right back on the other human, as if trying to understand what he was seeing.
    “I know this is a lot,” Grace said, placating with his hands up and visible. Inhibiting human vision was seen as a threat, as Grace had once explained. “I’m Grace. I—Have we met before? I don’t think we have, but they said you were asking for me, so I’m not sure—“
    The new human finally stopped examining his surroundings and frowned at him. “You’re not Grace.”

    Or,
    A new human arrives on Erid. He's weirdly knowledgeable about Eridians and even shares a name with Rocky. Even weirder, he claims to be best friends with an Eridian named Grace.

    Summary

    By our stars and saving grace,
    save us from this deep dark place.

    When you've been in darkness for too long, you tend to grab onto the first light you see. Sometimes that light happens to be two aliens from a society 11.9 light-years away from your own, and they happen to be exactly what you were looking for all along.

    Summary

    The engineer takes my hand. His skin runs hot. Very hot. He doesn't let go at what I would gauge as a socially-acceptable handshake time interval. Are we just holding hands in the middle of the lab-workshop space? Guess we are.

    "I'm Rocky," he finally introduces himself. He has a hint of an accent, something lilting, melodic. I can't really place it.

    "Rocky," I repeat, slowly. "Like the movies?"

    "No," Rocky deadpans, giving me a look like I'm stupid. "Like the rocks."

    Summary

    "... What are you doing?" Rocky says in confusion. "Why are you standing in the middle of the living room looking like you're about to puke, question?"

    "Oh!" Grace says. "Shi - crap. Am I doing it wrong?"

    "Doing what wrong?"

    "The - necklace. Thing. Courting. Me?" Grace chokes out.

    Rocky stares.

    "You are trying to court an Eridian?" He says dumbly.

    ***

    It takes Rocky one year to realize how much he loves his human.

    It takes Grace four times as long to realize that that love is reciprocated.

    Gosh flipping darn it.
