    Summary

    Ch.8 excerpt:

    "Simon blinked and blinked again. The other man smiled, small but relieved.

    And it was as if the annulus shifted. No longer a moon ringed around the edges by light, Simon was staring directly at the sun itself, just as bright as he once remembered it. At eyes like a sunset on the surface of Mars, a brilliant blue that washed over everything, became a soothing lowlight that filtered in through the bedroom window of his childhood home; the shade of a dress his mother used to wear before almost all of the colony vanished, before they were forced to leave and move to Eden and it had been left behind with all the other things they couldn't take with them. All those pieces of his home, his life before, lost to a dead planet he could never return to and a mother who'd taken everything else with her when she'd left."

    -

    Or: It's not enough to want to live. You have to make a choice.

    Summary

    The details of the job are pretty vague, but in the end, Simon agrees. It's a chance. At freedom. Life. No matter how slim or ridiculous the thought is in a dying universe. He doesn't know what to expect, but he certainly isn't prepared to wake up months later on a small ship with a crew of people that leave him with more questions than answers.

    Summary

    It was hard to gander how long Grace was on Erid when Simon came along. He could try measuring it out using the Earth’s Gregorian calendar like he did on the Hail Mary, but that’s when he still had a “lights out” timer and didn’t live on a planet with a very different yearly calendar. Teaching little eridians has forced him to adapt to their schedule more than his.

    Where was he going with this?

    Right! Simon.

    He still hadn’t met him yet.

     

    Or Rocky and other eridians find a wormhole and then an injured human man! They bring him to Erid and quarantine him to get him nice and healthy, but slowly find out he’s much different than their beloved science teacher.

    Summary

    “Earth spider animals are so beautiful and intelligent,” Teacher Grace said compassionately to Combustion-Fighter. A thrum of spider animals was going by on the street as it said this. “I wish there was a way I could talk to them and teach them about magnetism.”
    That was called ‘foreshadowing.’

    Three Eridian kids try and write a romance novel about their teacher.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Holy shit yall this has EVERYTHING
    Eridian students do their darndest to write an epic space odyssey about their beloved Teacher Grace. I laughed, I nearly cried, I shook as I tried not to scream with delight as I read what could only be described as ‘entirely accurate fiction written by teenagers’

    They don’t understand humans, or science, or medical procedures. But goddamn did they have fun.
