Summary
"Well," Grace says, reading over the monitor with Mary's full report, "everything looks good. I'm as healthy as a horse. A healthy horse," he adds, getting ahead of Rocky's inevitable logical objection to the phrase.
"Mm," Rocky hums, "no, Grace not as tall as horse. Hair is shorter, also."
"Are those--" Grace plants his hands on his hips. "Are those the main differences you see between me and a horse?"
(In which Grace has multiple crises, breaks his foot, gets his brain microwaved, learns to hate cherry tomatoes, and becomes a celebrity--not necessarily in that order)

Summary
“Grace,” Myrta began gently. “What do you have there?”
Grace paused, before extending the object to them instead. It was a plain tube, no bigger than a single claw-digit, with an unidentified smear of... something, resting at the bottom. “Staaar-eat.”
“‘Star-eat’,” Theodor moaned as they picked themself back up. “‘Star-eat’, it says. You let a hatchling into a lab for λλ seconds and it finds unsecured star-killer rolling around the back of a drawer. A single micron from that tube could vapourize the space elevator so thoroughly they wouldn’t even feel a speck of us landing down below.”
“Ah, geez. I should’ve expected that."

Summary
The arrival at Erid is a momentous occasion. Rocky is excited and thrilled. Ryland is overwhelmed. But the reunion is happy, beautiful, amazing.
Or that's what it should have been. Except Rocky gets hurt, Ryland is left to try and communicate with an alien planet, and everyone is scrambling to figure out how to do this. To Grace, this is incredible but also bittersweet - he got Rocky home safely with the taumoeba, now he just gets... to starve. To Erid, this is insane - how did Rocky show up in an alien spaceship with a child???
...
Ryland Grace is stuck trying to speak Eridian, immediately makes himself sound like a child, and Rocky's world and family scramble to help this strange pebble. Misunderstandings galore, alongside hurt/comfort and angst and fluff.
