Summary
"Come on, show me your masterpiece," Grace said, feeling helplessly charmed. "What's it about?"
"Is proposal," Rocky said.
"Oh yeah?" Grace smiled. He stretched his arms up, reaching until his spine popped. Maybe taking a break from his experiments was the right call after all. "Sounds exciting. What are you proposing?"
"Propose Grace Rocky get married," Rocky said.
Grace twitched violently, fell sideways off the viewing platform, and banged his elbow hard into DGCR screen six.
Rocky and Grace watch a movie and talk about their friendship. Also they love each other to the ends of the infinite, expanding universe.

A Red String in the Stars by fall_of_grace
Fandoms: Welcome to Night Vale, Project Hail Mary (2026)
20 Jun 2026
Tags
Summary
We’re getting a few calls into the station regarding our announcement of the Sun’s early retirement. Frankly Night Vale, I think you’re overreacting a little bit. Humanity has been around for millennia already, I’d say we’ve had a pretty good run. And this way we all get to know exactly when we’re going to die! Who hasn’t wished for that before, huh?
Now another important update from Dr. Grace: he has found a rock.

waves in guilt-like sand by fishygills

Summary
Rocky stands at the entrance of the dorm.
“Grace ok, question?”
“…no bud. I’m not.”
“…” Rocky seems to want to step forward, thinks better of it, then shrinks away at the admission, the ball wobbling as he takes a step back. On the far edge of the bed. Grace takes stark notice of the berth and feels cold. His fingers pluck absentmindedly at the sideseams of his shirt. “Grace upset. At Rocky, question?”
Grace doesn’t respond right away, letting the question sink in. Rocky doesn’t push, for which he can only thank tirelessly. He can’t let himself relish in the final moments he will ever hold Rocky’s respect, not when they are so tinged with tension. He clears his throat.
“Let me tell you a story, ok? I think it might help.”
Or
There’s this thing about waves: the longer they lap at wet sand, the denser it gets. And Grace is choking on sand that’s been there for years.

Summary
“Rocky not explain question?” asked Adrian slowly.
“Busy,” said Rocky, sheepish.
“Had four years on ship.”
“Busy then too.”
Adrian skittered back and forth, which I think equated to a human throwing both hands up in exasperation. “With what question?”
“Science!”
“Whole time science question? Four years!”
“Is much science in universe!”--
Rocky has neglected to explain some very important cultural context to Grace.

rocky escape closet by nambi

14 Jun 2026

Summary
Rocky emerges, and his body language alone is enough to get me going. I struggle around my laugh, clamping my hand over my mouth. He waits patiently for me to gather myself.
“Eridians are gay,” he declares. “I escape closet for all of them.”
I fail. I tuck my glasses into the collar of my shirt so I can put my head in my hands, wiping tears as they come.
“Rocky,” I say between giggles, “Rocky, I don’t think—I don’t think you can apply human sexuality to Eridians.”
Something in him shifts, then. He perks to attention from his relaxed state, and though he has no eyes or facial features, I swear I can feel his gaze narrow on me.
“I also read about gay rights,” he says slowly, warily. “Read that gay humans are hated some places. Bad.” He comes closer, looking up at me with all the accusation his flat face can muster. “You hate gay, question?”
/////
Or: Rocky learns about another human custom, and as always, he makes it Grace's problem.

Summary
Sleeping is so much easier with Rocky around. Well… maybe not necessarily easier, but… better?
Before I met Rocky, I mostly just felt too awful all the time to get much rest. And after we parted ways, the nightmares that had been taunting me on and off started coming with a vengeance. The nightmares aren't gone now, of course. But it's better.

rocky, most beloved by nambi

Summary
I’m safe. I know this. As foreign as it feels to give myself credit, I know I helped save Erid, and that every sentient being on the planet knows it too.
And yet, something small and primitive in me can’t fight the brief flash of fear that zips through me when Adrian skids to a halt before me and I am forced to look up at them.
For a moment, they just stand there. I am reminded of the first time I saw Rocky, atavistic horror battling with fascination, coming together in a trembling awe. I feel no different looking at Adrian than I felt looking at Adrian, a vast expanse of green before me, knowing I am the first human to ever witness it, finding beauty in it as much as knowing it could spell my doom under the right circumstances. The light of my dome shines down on them, casting a dozen towering shadows over me.
“Hi,” I manage, forcing myself to swallow through a dry throat. If this is who Rocky chose to spend his life with, they’re cool. They have to be.

Or: Rocky introduces the two people he loves most.

Summary
There were four hours of camera footage on the beetles. They’ve all seen parts, because it’s everywhere, but no-one has been able to bring themselves to watch the whole thing. But they owe it to Dr. Grace. They owe him far, far more than that.
The lights dim, someone presses play…and there he is.
“So, I met an alien…”
Katsuki laughs, shaking his head in amazement. The whole world knows about the Eridians by now, but all he can think is: of course. Of course Dr. Ryland Grace made first contact twice. He always was the best of them.

Summary
It’s a terribly loaded question. Grace thinks about Earth, about Linda and Mark’s engagement photos, about the many, easy ways in which one could kill themselves in space. You don’t even have a dog, Stratt had said, as if the white picket fenced-in yard of a nuclear, pet-owning family could have somehow morally redeemed him.
Or: Grace and Rocky talk human culture (read: sexuality).

How to Fix Your Human by glennjaminhow

Summary
Grace is dying. Rocky fix.
~
"Plan is to use human thinking machine to find out vitamins and minerals Grace is currently missing. When Grace had human food, Grace wasn’t sick. When Grace was had coma slurry, as Grace called it, Grace was hungry but not sick. When Grace only has taumoeba, Grace sick.
Need substitute for taumoeba. No good for Grace.
Rocky tried to make Grace food before, but apparently Rocky uses too many heavy metals. Would kill Grace. Bad bad bad.
So Rocky need to search ship. Search everywhere. In walls. In ports. In everywhere."

Summary
“I think little humans love you,” Rocky says. “Must. You are—”
He hesitates, thinking.
“Need word. Love very much, but not person. Love thing. Love doing. Need nothing else.”
He has a way of working his limited vocabulary into just the right order. I turn to look at him like a starving animal that’s just been offered food, crumpling under how warm it makes me feel.
“Passionate,” I say weakly. Rocky sings the Eridian word, a multi-layered crescendo of chords that each seem to pour into the next, one by one by one. “I guess I am.”
Rocky gestures with a chain link he’s picked up, getting back to work. “Everything you do, you are focused. Work work work. You teach me language. You teach me human ways. No give up until problem is solved. No rest until stupid. Passion.”
“Darn,” I say, for lack of more intelligent words. Rocky briefly looks up from his chain.
“What, question?”
“I never thought about it like that.”
/////
Or: With nothing to do besides putting together a chain one link at a time, Grace and Rocky find time to have a moment.

Now Trending: My Mate and the Human They Didn't Want by Acewithapaintbrush
Fandoms: Project Hail Mary - Andy Weir, Project Hail Mary (2026)
16 Apr 2026

Summary
It's not jealousy. Adrian is adamant about that. They are actually insisting that it’s not any emotion at all. Not even dislike. They are simply completely uninterested in anything that concerns “the human”.
Rocky believes them. Adrian has always been the level-headed one out of the two of them. They are too logical to be jealous. They acknowledge that Grace and Rocky have a special bond after everything they went through together and also understand that none of that will ever pose a threat to their relationship.
Neither are they heartless or ungrateful. They know that Grace is the only reason that Rocky is back at all, the only reason their star has stopped dying. Adrian has told Rocky again and again that they are grateful and happy and wish the alien no ill will. They even helped with the construction of the biodome.
And yet they have no desire to get to know Grace.
**************
You know those videos where the dad is like "You may keep the cat but I will have nothing to do with it" and a few days later they are smothering the kitty with cuddles and love?
Adrian never stood a chance.
