you know, it's kind of weird I haven't seen any fics or whatnot with adrian hearing about gracerocky (like maybe rocky refers to grace as his mate or some other relationship marker in his radio contact to erid) and their reaction is oh thank GOD he found someone to love up there. thank god there was something good to get him through all the awful parts as alive and untraumatized as possible. thank god he wasn't alone, thank god someone was there to do what I wasn't able to because I wasn't there. I want him loved and cared for and safe and happy and whole more than I care about getting to be the one to provide. thank GOD first contact with intelligent life was an alien with enough sense to love rocky. thank god.
