    Summary

    “Oh, come on, Harry. This is just the natural progression of things. Have you never been to one too many sleepovers with a girl, and you get a little close—maybe one of you keeps getting attacked by some psycho with a spear, or whatever—and eventually someone just has to rip the bandage off and make a move or you both will be stuck in tortuous purgatory for the rest of your lives?”

    “I did not have… sleepovers.”

    Summary

    "You can literally hear inside me when you focus, bud. Has observing the action of my gallbladder in HD made you think less of me as a person, or humanity as a whole?"

    [Yes,] Rocky says without hesitation, which makes Grace choke on a laugh. He amends, […at first. Then I get used to. Kind of cute now. Humans need infinity liquids to do basic process, always new mucus…]

    "I bet I'm gonna find your ultra-high-temp organs super cute too," Grace offers with an irrepressible grin, "and actually, okay, this strikes me as a morale problem. You're getting too down on yourself. I promise you there is nothing I could find rearranging your—" Nope. "—digging around in there that would shame the entire Eridian race."

    [No way for you to know this,] Rocky says flatly.

    "There definitely is, because I'm gonna shame the entire human race first."

    This is how they spend the next three days on the glove box addition while Mary reads to them from the unreleased 2021 NEISS report, filtered by incidents requiring extraction of foreign objects from the 'lower trunk' or 'pubic region'.

    (or, Rocky eats something inedible. Grace helps. They both get Really Weird About It.)

    Summary

    “Proof of concept,” ♫♬♯♩♩♫ says. “We’ve tested it thoroughly to ensure it fits the specified nutritional profile, and several members of our team have ingested small amounts of it to ensure there were no adverse effects.”

    “You ate some of it?” I ask, rudely. I’m too irate to mind my language. Who do they think they are? That meat is for Grace. In a way, that meat is Grace.

    “Yes,” ♫♬♯♩♩♫ says. They and the rest of the human life support thrum know better than to be offended by my occasionally strange behaviour. “Obviously we weren’t going to risk the life of Honoured Grace on a completely untested technology.”

    That doesn’t mean much. There’s a lot of things that are safe for ingestion by Eridians that would outright kill a human.

    Trust Grace, I remind myself. He’ll have thought of all this.

    (OR: Grace's meburgers from the book epilogue. Let's talk about those!)
