    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.

    AKA: Grace starves for more than just food on the journey to Erid.

    Summary

    Ryland’s starting to think the human from the submarine isn’t really a human at all, not anymore. It doesn't matter, he wants Simon all the same.

    Or,

    Simon knows that Ryland Grace is an angel, he just can’t figure out how he got to heaven. He’s not complaining, though it took becoming a devil himself to finally behold the divine.

    Summary

    “Rocky, please stop moving,” Grace begged quietly, his hand out towards the alien in an attempt to get him to hold still. He did. It was completely silent other than the hum of the ship.

    And then a robotic voice cut the silence.

    Foreign Body Detected.

     

    When Grace hears a crash, though skeptical at first, he absolutely has to go see what it is. He refuses to be a coward.

    or, The universe had decided to take pity on the two patron saints of being expendable.
