Summary
“Hey! It’s a lot up here, okay? It’s a normal response to stress.” He rubs a hand over his face. “Okay, I cried a lot down there, too. But not in class! Not if I could help it. But having to say goodbye, gosh, I’ve never been good at that.” Grace laughs, but it sounds sad. His mouth is shut firmly, and he leans against my ball. He’s so soft, his body melds to the side of the xenonite with ease. “I can’t imagine what a mess I’ll be when—” he cuts himself off, but I know what was coming next.
I’m not sure how I’ll be when we say goodbye either. It didn’t seem like it’d matter so much at first, after all, if we part ways, it means we succeeded. I’d be going back to Erid, to Adrian, to home. But I’d be leaving behind Grace. The thought of that is unpleasant. It sinks deep in me; the emotion is painfully familiar. It’s been a long time since I’ve had anyone to mourn losing anyone again. I don’t want to think about it, I’m not ready.
or 5 times Rocky feels something for Grace. 1 time he does something about it.

“Sarge?” said Nobby, looking suddenly nervous.
“Yes Nobby?” said Colon, letting out a yawn as they turned down Nap Lane.
“Would you?”
“Would I what?”
“Would’ya still patrol with me if I was a… well, a worm?” said Nobby, clearing his throat.
Colon gave Nobby a strange look.
“Why would the wizards turn you into a worm?”

Summary
A shrill and urgent noise like a cat being flattened by a steamroller began to emanate from the bassinet.
"I've heard they sleep with their eyes open," Vimes said, attempting to project his voice over the wailing.
"What?"
"What?"
"I know they sleep with their eyes open sometimes, Sam, but I really do think he's awake. It's the screaming that's tipping me off."
