    Summary

    Ryland Grace doesn't even bother trying to not cry when he sees the little house on the beach. The water might be boiling, and the terraform dome might be barely bigger than the Hail Mary herself, but Rocky and Adrian made him a house. Instead of living alone on a spaceship forever he can live on Erid. They made him a bedroom. They brought down Armando. Grace sits on the floor and focuses on breathing evenly.

    Is good reaction, he hears Rocky tell Adrian. Leaking sign of strong emotion. Grace often have strong emotion.

    Summary

    One unexpected benefit of Rocky's new xenonite suit is the discovery that Grace's panic is often soothed by Rocky's weight on his chest. It's come in handy during many nightmares and Rocky is ecstatic to have a new way to help. During Grace's latest nightmare, Rocky goes to put weight on his back to soothe him. It doesn't work. It really, really doesn't work.

    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!)
