Is Grace gonna cuss out Stratt in your fic? Or will he at least crash out at her? Will there be lots of angst???? (I love angst lmao)
i dont think so actually, rocky is the msot upset one, eridian longer lifespan also means longer emotions, eridian grudges can last centuries, grace is sort of... numbed, to all of everything happening around stratt,
its jsut uncomfortable to be around her for... reasons, so they dont talk nearly as often as they once did, certaintly not as often as he imagined he would if he ever got back in within her lifespan
he feels bad, he finds how stratt has been living all these years, a wanted criminal made to continue living when she expected death, the sheer guilt she feels about everything deemed enough of a punishment
rocky is the one upset, he is angry in grace's place, he makes remarks and comments at stratt and earth as a whole
that grace keeps apologizing about, because he is not upset. not at her, not at earth, not at anything, all those years and the time betweem flashbacks and the shit that happened. his anger passed, it happened in a ship and faded in a ship. he is now just... numb, going through the motions and studying simon. he ran out of hate a long time ago, too much to do too much to think for the angry to stay when trying to breed taomeba and save not one but two stars
as for angst, i keep saying im not good at angst then write stuff like this so, i dont know? a major part of this is jsut grace learning to communicate and being entirely too fascinated by everything he learns
once simon gets used to grace he goes full on neglected puppy on him just sticking like velcro so it gets kinda silly fluffy. so far most angst seems to be around stratt? i dont plan stuff i jsut make it as i come up with it so literally everything is subject to change
lowkey regretting i didnt have adrian tag along but i have my ways hehehehehe (hint the worm hole they got in through is still there :3)
(also yes a majority of these refencces are because i just listened to the audiobook, i am sort of stalling the end because i jsut dont want it to be over, im at the 14:07 hour mark out of 16:10 i dont want it to be over i jsut dont)
