Summary
Getting settled on a new planet has all kinds of ups and downs, Ryland Grace knows this. Eridian's are very different, not to mention simply their method of speech.
Grace may have forgotten to mention that some forms of sound, sudden and sharp, are painful to humans. It never came up, and after nearly a year on Erid, it had sort of slipped his mind. Not to mention, being on a space craft for nearly five years must have brought an issue like this to light, but it seems that he and Rocky had just gotten lucky.
The alternative, the pain of new sounds is discovered the hard way, with a bit too much blood as a result.

Summary
“What made you come up with this?” Grace asks. His voice is thick.
“Grace need comfort,” Rocky says matter-of-factly. “Like a hug. This comfort Grace, question?”
Grace presses his hand more firmly against the top of Rocky’s carapace, and Rocky shifts a bit within the xenonite, rising so that they make nearly direct contact through the panel. It’s not like they haven’t done something like this before—Rocky is always pressing his claws up against Grace’s palm—but it’s different for Grace’s whole hand to be so close, to feel the heat of a living thing against his side and against his palm all at once.
“Yeah,” Grace breathes.
~~~
On the trip to Erid, Grace is starving.

Summary
“Friend Grace, question?”
Rocky’s melodious voice is quiet, uncertain.
He probably can’t tell if I’m awake or asleep.
And, honestly, neither can I. The hallucinations and psychosis are almost impossible for me to decipher from reality. Rocky might not even be here at all.
Just in case, I offer a weak hum. Just in case Rocky is here. Just in case I’m not dead.
Am I dead?

Summary
Why would Grace be so scared to admit that he needs help? On Erid, when someone somehow falls sick, the entire family gathers to take care of them. Was that not customary on Earth? Rocky could hardly stomach the thought… humans suffering, cold and alone, with no one to comfort them…
OR: Ryland Grace gets a nasty cough when the Hail Mary is only about halfway to Erid. Rocky doesn’t know what to do, or how to help, until it might be too late.
