i think grace stays for the rest of his life on erid because that's his home now, rocky's his home, and he wants to be together with rocky forever. and also because he never wants to step foot in the eridian space elevator ever again.
@cloudabserk can you imagine his face when they finally reach Erid and he’ll be able to leave the Hail Mary and touch solid ground for the first time in 8 years and then Rocky is like okay, time to go down the space elevator!
